Unlike some other African nations that earlier this year saw a decoder and subscription fee reduction, MultiChoice in South Africa will again increase its prices for 2021 for SA's DStv subscribers.

The annual price hike that will come into effect from April will see consumers of all 5 of the biggest DStv packages pay more.
The increase comes as MultiChoice is facing ever greater competition from video streaming services like Netflix SA, Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV+, VIU, Vodacom Video Play and TelkomONE with several other international streamers who are still set to launch in the country.
In response to a media enquiry on Thursday about its 2021 price increase for South Africa, MultiChoice said: "DStv has once again absorbed much of the increase in costings from content providers and bolstered the value and rewards for customers."
