With Bafana Bafana set to return to the FIFA World Cup™ stage and Africa preparing for its strongest-ever representation at the tournament, DStv is lowering the price of its entry-level decoders to make it easier than ever for more South African households to be part of the action, using its scale to make this the most accessible FIFA World Cup ever for viewers.

“This could be a historic moment for Africa,” says Willington Ngwepe, CEO of MultiChoice, the broadcasting services licensee in South Africa. “And we want as many South African football fans as possible to be able to watch the FIFA World Cup 2026™. We’ve dropped the prices of DStv decoders to their lowest ever, so everyone can support Bafana with pride.”

Leading the charge is the R199 p/m contract deal over 24 months that includes a DStv HD Single View decoder, plus delivery and installation, and a 24-month DStv Access subscription.

It’s the perfect fit for football fanatics who want the convenience of watching the game at home, every goal broadcast live and available in an instant, via satellite.

The DStv HD Single View decoder will also be available as a standalone at R299 (a saving of R200 on current pricing), or for R499 including installation (a saving of R300).

DStv Access includes two ways to watch: via decoder and via the DStv Stream mobile app on any device. Customers don’t have to wait until the FIFA World Cup 2026™ begins to start enjoying the entertainment.
