StarTimes has also introduced a more affordable bouquet to be known as Nova which will be retailing at Sh299 with access to over 35 local and international channels.

The company has equally dropped the cost of its Super bouquet which will now be retailing at Sh1,799 per month down from Sh2,499 with access to over 95 local and international channels. Smart bouquet will now be retailing at Sh899 per month down from 1,799 with access to over 67 local and international channels.
