Banglalink has launched its satellite-to-mobile service, powered by Starlink,

making Bangladesh the first country in South Asia to introduce this service.

The launch further strengthens Banglalink’s position of being the leading digital operator in

Bangladesh and its commitment to building a more resilient network and delivering seamless

connectivity beyond the reach of mobile networks, helping customers stay connected during

emergencies, natural disasters and prolonged power outages, when conventional networks may be disrupted.

The satellite network will be particularly valuable for fishermen, people working at sea, travelers

and communities in remote and coastal areas, including deep-sea locations within Bangladesh’s

Exclusive Economic Zone.

For customers, this means being able to access essential apps and location services even when they are beyond the reach of conventional mobile networks. All they need is a 4G phone and a Banglalink SIM.

To make this new era of connectivity accessible to everyone, Banglalink is offering Starlink internet

free with any internet or mixed bundle pack for the first month of launch. From the second month

onwards, customers will continue to enjoy Starlink internet at no additional cost with selected monthly internet and mixed bundle packs. Customers will also receive five free SMS messages every month for use over the satellite network.


Johan Buse, CEO of Banglalink, said, “Connectivity is ultimately about people. It is about a family

being able to hear from a loved one, a fisherman being able to send a message home, or someone

in a remote area knowing they can still reach someone when they need help. With Satellite-to-

Mobile, we are bringing connectivity to more people and more places across Bangladesh. Distance

should not have to mean disconnection. This is what being a digital operator means to us—using

technology to make a real difference in people’s everyday lives.”


Because being connected should never depend on where you are. With Starlink-powered satellite-

to-mobile connectivity, Banglalink is making it possible for customers to stay connected even

beyond the reach of traditional mobile networks.

If you can see the sky, Banglalink can help you stay connected.
