GOtv Packages and Prices in Nigeria (2026)
Easy at ₦4,000 is the cheapest GOtv package now, and Sports at ₦21,000 is the only one with the Premier League channel. What each shows, and the decoder.
GOtv Nigeria has cut six packages to four under new names, and MultiChoice set the switch for 5 November. GOtv’s website lists only these.
| Package | Per month | Channels | Football and other sport |
|---|---|---|---|
| GOtv Easy | ₦4,000 | 47+ | SuperSport Blitz (60) and SuperSport Africa (62), with no football channel |
| GOtv Starter | ₦6,000 | 68+ | Adds SuperSport Kickoff (61), SuperSport LaLiga (63), ESPN (56) and SportyTV (58) |
| GOtv Select | ₦11,000 | 87+ | Adds SuperSport Football (65) and WWE (69) |
| GOtv Sports | ₦21,000 | 94+ | Adds SuperSport Premier League (64), SuperSport Football Plus (66), SuperSport Action (67), SuperSport Variety 1 (68) and ESPN 2 (57) |
Smallie, Jinja, Jolli, Max, Supa and Supa Plus have gone, and their pages on GOtv’s site no longer open. GOtv has not said which old package became which new one.
Which GOtv package has the Premier League?
For every Premier League weekend it has to be Sports. It is the only package with the SuperSport Premier League channel, and GOtv’s page for it opens with the Premier League and promises “all football”. DStv Sports costs the same ₦21,000 and, by DStv’s own account, has every Premier League and Champions League match.
Below that it gets thinner. GOtv sells Select on “select football content” and Starter on “select live sport” without saying which matches. Both have SuperSport Kickoff, which DStv describes as a selection of top football including the Premier League and Champions League, with the Premier League Match of the Week on its own Starter package. GOtv does not describe the channel, so look in the TV guide before paying for one fixture.
La Liga is simpler: SuperSport LaLiga starts at Starter, so ₦6,000 covers it. Select adds SuperSport Football for ₦5,000 more. SportyTV, from Starter up, is a 24-hour sports channel that GOtv credits with 750+ live events a year. Easy is sold on local stations, so skip it if football is the reason you are paying.
What happens to Max, Jolli and the other old packages
MultiChoice told a press briefing in Lagos that active subscribers move automatically from 5 November to the corresponding package, with nothing to pay for the move and at least the content they had. It named the matches for DStv and not for GOtv. Anyone who has paid several months ahead keeps the package they paid for until that time runs out. Nobody has promised that the monthly price stays the same, so look at what the MyGOtv app shows before your next payment.
Going only by price and channel count, and this is our reading and not GOtv’s, Jinja (₦3,900, 45+) sits next to Easy, Jolli (₦5,800, 65+) next to Starter and Supa (₦11,400, 80+) next to Select. Smallie (₦1,900, 35+) has only Easy above it, at more than double the price. Supa Plus (₦16,800, 85+) has to become Sports to keep the Premier League channel. Max (₦8,500, 75+) sat exactly halfway between Starter and Select.
Content could push someone a step higher than the price suggests. Jinja had SuperSport Kickoff, which Easy does not list, and Jolli had CNN, Nickelodeon and TNT Africa, which Starter does not.
What each GOtv package shows
Each package carries everything on the one below it, so these are only the additions.
GOtv Easy: ₦4,000
GOtv sells this one on local favourites, and 22 of its 47 are just that: AIT, Silverbird, Lagos TV, NTA 2, Wazobia TV, Arewa 24 and the state stations. It also has Africa Magic Yoruba, Hausa, Igbo and Epic, Bravo, Channels, Arise News and BBC World News. The whole line-up, by number, is in our GOtv Lite channels list, because Easy is what sits at the bottom of the range now.
GOtv Starter: ₦6,000
This adds 21 channels: Africa Magic Family (7), ROK 2 (10), Televista (14), Afia TV (17), Tozali TV (18), Hip TV (22), Zee World (30), Telemundo (33), Novelas+ (34), Discovery Family (37), Base Pulse (40), Trace Naija (46), M-Net Legends (50), ESPN (56), SportyTV (58), SuperSport Kickoff (61), SuperSport LaLiga (63), Disney Junior (82), Cartoon Network (89), Nat Geo Wild (100) and The Wedding Channel (105). MultiChoice says Africa Magic Family is being renamed Africa Magic+.
GOtv Select: ₦11,000
This adds 19 more: Africa Magic Showcase (8), ROK (9), M-Net Movies+ (11), Star Life (31), MTV (41), Trace Gospel (47), Movie Room (51), TNT Africa (52), M-Net Stars (53), KIX (55), SuperSport Football (65), WWE (69), CNN (72), Nick Jr. (81), NickToons (86), Nickelodeon (87), Disney Channel (92), National Geographic (101) and BBC Lifestyle (106).
For a family we would pick Select, with every children’s channel and all but one of the film channels. The full list is in our GOtv Max channels list.
GOtv Sports: ₦21,000
Seven more for ₦10,000 a month extra: Universal TV (38), Studio Universal (54), ESPN 2 (57), SuperSport Premier League (64), SuperSport Football Plus (66), SuperSport Action (67) and SuperSport Variety 1 (68). That is ₦120,000 a year over Select, nearly all of it for the sport.
GOtv’s counts list NTA News 24 and NTA Parliament twice, once as local and once as news, so each package has two channels fewer than its number says.
GOtv or DStv at the same price
Starter, Select and Sports are DStv’s new names too, at the same ₦6,000, ₦11,000 and ₦21,000. DStv has more channels at each level, 98+, 131+ and 139+ against GOtv’s 68+, 87+ and 94+. If you can put up a dish, DStv is the better buy. GOtv’s case now rests on having no dish to fit, and on Easy, which is below anything DStv sells. DStv’s side of this is on the DStv decoders and prices page.
GOtv decoder price and the first year
GOtv’s home page prices the decoder and GOtenna antenna at ₦15,000. MultiChoice says the offer also covers a month of an entry-level package, and DStv’s version costs the same with a dish kit in place of the antenna.
Add eleven more months at your package’s price and the first year comes to ₦59,000 on Easy, ₦81,000 on Starter, ₦136,000 on Select and ₦246,000 on Sports. Every package is priced by the month, and Smallie’s quarterly and yearly prices have no replacement.
GOtv’s FAQ page still quotes ₦19,900 for a decoder, on a page that also still mentions GOtv Plus, so go by the home page. To replace a dead decoder, ask a dealer for the decoder-only price.
How to pay for GOtv
GOtv lists the MyGOtv app, its Self Service website, a MultiChoice branch or a GOtv dealer. Its payment page also names Quickteller, Paga and bank channels including FCMB and Zenith. Dial *288# to check what you owe or to reconnect. Recurring payments renew the subscription without you remembering, and the MyGOtv app is also where you change package.
