Starlink added a new Roam 300GB plan on Wednesday, giving US customers a midrange option priced at $80 a month for people who travel often, camp, live in RVs or work on the move. The plan is open to new and existing subscribers and sits between the company’s $50 Roam 100GB tier and its $165 Unlimited high-speed data plan.
The new plan has no hard data caps, but Starlink says users who go past their allotted data will see speeds drop to under 1Mbps, a level SpaceX says is still enough for email, calls and texts. The change gives Starlink a cleaner ladder of consumer plans at a time when some customers have pushed for a cheaper or more flexible roaming option.
Starlink’s Roam service had previously offered only two consumer choices. The $50 monthly 100GB plan is marketed for occasional trips, camping and getaways, while the Unlimited high-speed data option targets users who need more constant access and are willing to pay more for it. In January, SpaceX added no hard data caps to the Roam 100GB plan, widening the appeal of the lower-cost tier without changing its basic position as the entry-level option.
The new 300GB plan appears aimed at filling the gap between those two offerings. Starlink describes it as designed for frequent travelers, RVers, campers and people working on the go, and a support page says it will also be available to Canadian customers. That expansion suggests the company sees room to sell more data to users who want more than 100GB but do not want to commit to the Unlimited plan.
The move also comes as some customers have asked for a more affordable Roam package. One Reddit user called for a 25Mbps plan or something useful for light browsing and occasional YouTube or streaming, while others have said they want the return of the $10-per-month Roam 10GB plan. The new $80 tier does not meet those requests, but it does show Starlink is still adjusting its consumer lineup to keep Roam competitive and generate more revenue from existing users.
SpaceX has been making other changes to its lower-cost mobility offerings as well. The company still sells a $5-a-month Standby Mode with unlimited low-speed data, but it shut down in-motion use on that plan in March. For customers who need reliable connectivity while moving, the new Roam 300GB option is now the more relevant choice, even if it remains far more expensive than the most budget-minded plans some users were hoping for.
