GOtv Packages and Prices: What Each Plan Includes
GOtv groups its channels into local, sports, movies and other channels. These are the counts it publishes for each package:
| Package | Local | Sports | Movies | Other |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Easy | 22 | 2 | 1 | 22 |
| Starter | 24 | 6 | 2 | 36 |
| Select | 24 | 7 | 8 | 48 |
| Sports | 24 | 12 | 9 | 49 |
GOtv Easy: ₦4,000
Easy is the cheapest GOtv package. It focuses on local favourites, such as Nigerian news, Nollywood and general entertainment. It has only two sports channels and one movie channel, so it suits a single viewer or a home that mainly watches local TV. Easy also works well as a low cost package for a second decoder in another room.
GOtv Starter: ₦6,000
Starter adds about 20 channels to Easy. GOtv describes it as entertainment with selected live sport, and it has six sports channels. It is a good middle choice if you want more variety but do not need every big match.
GOtv Select: ₦11,000
Select is the family package. It has 87 or more channels, including more movie channels, children’s channels and football content. If your household mixes cartoons, films and some football, Select gives the best balance of price and variety.
GOtv Sports: ₦21,000
Sports is the top GOtv package. It has the most sports channels, and GOtv says it gives you a “front row seat to the Premier League”. It also includes international movies and news. Choose it if live Premier League football matters most in your home.
Old GOtv Packages and Prices: What Happened to Supa+, Max and Jolli?
The old packages end when the new ones start on 5 November 2026. MultiChoice says active subscribers on old packages move automatically to a new package with the same or more content. If you paid for several months in advance, you keep the full period you paid for.
For reference, these were the old GOtv prices until 4 November 2026:
| Old package | Old monthly price |
|---|---|
| Smallie | ₦1,900 |
| Jinja | ₦3,900 |
| Jolli | ₦5,800 |
| Max | ₦8,500 |
| Supa | ₦11,400 |
| Supa+ | ₦16,800 |
MultiChoice has not published which new GOtv package each old one maps to. To see where your account landed, open the MyGOtv app after 5 November and check your current package.
Which GOtv Package Has the Premier League?
GOtv Sports at ₦21,000 is the package GOtv links to the Premier League. Select at ₦11,000 includes football content, and Starter at ₦6,000 has selected live sport, but GOtv does not promise Premier League matches on either one. If football is the main reason you want GOtv, check the channel list in the app before you pick a cheaper package.
Note that GOtv Sports now costs the same as DStv Sports. If you can mount a satellite dish, compare the two using our guide to DStv packages and prices in Nigeria, or read the difference between DStv and GOtv.

How Much Is a GOtv Decoder in Nigeria?
The official GOtv Nigeria website lists a GOtv decoder and GOtenna antenna bundle for ₦9,000. MultiChoice is also running a new customer offer at ₦15,000 that includes a decoder, a full installation kit and one month on an entry package.
Decoder prices change with promotions, so confirm the price with an authorised dealer before you buy. Once you have it, follow our guide on how to install and activate a GOtv decoder. If the picture is weak, see how to fix your GOtv antenna.
How to Pay for Your GOtv Subscription
You need your 10 digit IUC number for every payment method. If you cannot find it, see where to find your GOtv IUC number. Then pay in one of these ways:
- MyGOtv app: sign in, choose your package and pay by card or transfer. Our guide to the MyGOtv app walks you through it.
- *288#: dial it on the phone number linked to your account to renew or check your balance without internet.
- Your bank app: look for GOtv under bills or cable TV, enter your IUC number and the amount.
- Payment apps: apps such as OPay and other bill payment services also accept GOtv.
Keep your decoder switched on while you pay, so the channels come back quickly. For phone payments step by step, read how to pay GOtv subscription with your phone. To stop your subscription from running out, set up GOtv recurring payment.
If Your Channels Do Not Show After Paying
A short delay after payment is normal. If your channels are still missing after 15 minutes, follow our steps to recover lost GOtv channels. If you still need help, contact GOtv customer care.
How to Change Your GOtv Package
You can move to a new package yourself in a few minutes:
- Open the MyGOtv app and sign in with your IUC number or phone number.
- Choose the option to change or upgrade your package.
- Pick the new package from the list.
- Check the amount the app shows, then pay to confirm.
- Keep the decoder on until the new channels appear.
Moving up gives you the extra channels straight away. If you want to move down to save money, it is usually best to do it close to your renewal date, so you do not lose days you have already paid for.
GOtv vs StarTimes Prices
StarTimes is the main budget rival to GOtv. Its cheapest package, Nova, cost ₦2,100 a month in its latest published price list, which is below GOtv Easy. StarTimes has strong Nollywood and drama channels, but it does not carry the Premier League. GOtv costs more at the bottom, but it is the cheaper way to get the Premier League on an antenna. Our GOtv vs StarTimes comparison goes into more detail.
Tips to Save Money on GOtv
- Start low: begin with Easy or Starter and upgrade only if you miss something.
- Follow the football season: some fans pay for Sports during the season and drop to a cheaper package in the summer break.
- Pay before expiry: renewing a day early keeps your channels running without a gap.
- Avoid fake offers: sellers who promise all channels free on a modified decoder are running a scam, and the box can stop working at any time.
- Check promotions: MultiChoice often runs decoder and upgrade offers around festive seasons.
