Elon Musk's Starlink Hardware Hits The Shelves At Walmart, Target, Home Depot, And Best Buy

Elon Musk’s SpaceX allows you to purchase its Starlink products either via its website or from authorized retailers, which now include popular hypermarket chains such as Target and Walmart.

What Happened: Authorised retailers purchase the hardware from Starlink and sell it directly to end-users online or at its retail locations. The service and support for the customer is, however, managed by Starlink.

The list of retailers authorized to sell Starlink products in the U.S. now includes popular retailers like Home Depot, Target, and Walmart.

The whole list:

1. Home Depot
2. Target
3. Nebraska Furniture Mart
4. Best Buy
5. West Marine
6. Bass Pro Shops
7. Microcom
8. Thor Industries
9. Winegard Company
10. Walmart

The company won’t activate service for a Starlink that has been purchased from an unauthorized retailer.

Why It Matters: The satellite internet service provided by Musk’s SpaceX is currently available across 100 countries and connects over 3 million customers.

The hardware, however, is slightly expensive, with the standard Starlink hardware currently priced at $499 in the U.S. on Starlink’s official website.

SpaceX is seemingly simplifying the hardware purchase process across geographies. In Canada, Starlink products can also be purchased from Costco and Radio Shack in Mexico.
