Cable TV Price in Nigeria

Gotv Decoder Price in Nigeria 2024

GOtv was Multichoice’s answer to the constant request for a more affordable cable TV service.

Multichoice Africa is one of the biggest cable TV service providers in Nigeria and the owner of DStv, the cable TV with the highest number of subscribers in Africa.

Although DStv was the popular choice of most Nigerians due to its high-quality picture, sound and abundance of many other notable features you can’t find in other Cable TV service providers, the demand and viewership started to decline as more affordable cable TV service operators started storming the Nigeria market.

As a response to this trend, Multichoice introduced GOtv which is a much cheaper version of DStv and gives access to a reasonable number of channels while retaining quality in picture and sound.

GOtv comes equipped with many premium channels you would only get on DStv which is quite advantageous. Another advantage of choosing this more affordable cable TV is that you wouldn’t be required to install a dish to get a good signal; this reduces the installation costs, making GOtv a better choice. Although, you would have to buy and install the GOtv antenna to get a good signal.

In this post, I am going to list the current prices of GOtv decoders in Nigeria alongside other useful pieces of information.

 

Things You Will Like about GOtv

Affordable Subscription Costs

Compared with DStv subscription prices, this is a better option for tight-budget or low/middle-income earners. Although the channels are fewer, you will get the right amount of entertainment as it is filled with a good number of channels to give you just that.

Good Signal Strength

GOtv has one of the best signal strengths among affordable Pay TV operators in Nigeria. This might be due to the fact that their decoders and antennas are produced by one of Africa’s top cable service providers, Multichoice. With the decoder, you wouldn’t have to worry much about interruptions in transmission even in bad weather.

 

Easy Installation

Due to the absence of an installation dish, you wouldn’t have to spend much to install your decoder. The decoder and antenna are also quite easy to install, which means you wouldn’t need to get an installer to handle it for you. You can also follow tutorials on the company’s website to properly install your decoder and antenna.

 

How Much is GOtv Decoder in Nigeria Now?

It is important to note that when buying the decoder, you will be given a box which contains the decoder itself with 1-month GOtv Max subscription, an antenna (known as the GOtenna), and a remote. If you find anything less, please desist from purchasing that product.

However, there are some dealers who sell only the GOtv decoder and you would have to buy the GOtenna separately. It is unconfirmed if the decoder will come with the 1-month GOtv Max subscription when purchased separately.

GOtv Decoder — N6,900 – N8,000

On the GOtv official website, you will find a price of N6,900 for the decoder displayed on its homepage. However, you should expect a little addition here and there when purchasing from dealers. Online shopping sites, on the other hand, tend to charge more due to the addition of delivery fees.

GOtv Packages and Subscription Costs in Nigeria

When compared with DStv subscription costs, you’d agree that GOtv offers one of the most affordable subscription packages in Nigeria. However, you wouldn’t get access to the same number of channels or get the interesting features you can find on the DStv decoder.

For one, the GOtv decoder lacks the program recorder feature you can find on the DStv decoder. You also wouldn’t be able to pause, play or rewind on this decoder. Meanwhile, these features are very much available on the DStv Explora decoder.

Below, I’ve listed the packages available on the GOtv decoder and their current subscription costs.

GOtv Lite — N400 (Monthly)

GOtv Lite — N3,100 (Yearly)
