Activating your Starlink kit is a simple process that can be completed online in just a few minutes. Whether you purchased your equipment directly from Starlink or through an authorized retailer, you can activate your service by visiting Starlink.com/activate and following the setup instructions.
Open a web browser and go to Starlink.com/activate. This is the official page where you can link your Starlink hardware to your account.
Locate your Starlink Identifier on the kit, packaging, or hardware label. Enter this identifier on the activation page when prompted.
Provide your email address and sign in to your existing Starlink account. If you're a new customer, create an account to continue the activation process.
After entering your identifier, Starlink will connect your hardware to your account and verify the device information.
For the easiest setup experience, download the Starlink app on your mobile device. The app provides step-by-step guidance for installing and configuring your equipment.
Follow the instructions in the app to position your Starlink dish, connect the hardware, and establish your internet connection.
When creating your account, ensure that the selected country matches the country where you plan to use and register your Starlink service. A mismatch may prevent successful activation.
Some regions have limited network capacity. Standard and Priority plans may not be available in these locations, while Roam plans could still be offered.
Starlink equipment can only be activated if it is not currently linked to another Starlink account. If the hardware is already assigned, it must first be transferred or removed from the existing account.
If you purchased your Starlink kit from a retailer, activation is still completed through Starlink.com/activate. Retail kits typically include temporary internet access to help you finish the activation process.
Activating your Starlink kit requires entering your Starlink Identifier, linking the hardware to your account, and completing setup through the Starlink website or mobile app. Once activation is complete, you'll be ready to enjoy Starlink's satellite internet service.
