Telecom operator Kyivstar announced that it has received the status of an authorized Starlink distributor. This will allow the company to officially supply equipment and provide satellite Internet services for government institutions, hospitals, educational institutions, and the private sector with full service support.
Kyivstar announced this on its social media pages. The press service statement notes that the operator has received all necessary financial documents as an authorized Starlink distributor in Ukraine.
In addition to the equipment itself, the company offers customers activation consultations, a 24-hour support line, and warranty service for terminals. An important aspect for the corporate segment is the ability to make payments in hryvnia and receive all necessary financial documents from a local partner.
The company notes that it plans to integrate satellite technology into its existing products.
«We plan to develop joint offers that will combine Starlink services with Kyivstar’s basic telecom services, creating comprehensive solutions for businesses with high reliability and support,» said Ilya Polshakov, Director of New Business Development at Kyivstar.
At the end of April, Kyivstar received permission from the regulator and began testing Light Data, the next stage of Starlink Direct to Cell technology. While the first stage made it possible to send SMS without a terrestrial network, now we are talking about the full operation of messengers and OTT applications via a satellite channel.
