"Starlink is applying a service discount for our neighbors in the Memphis area," the company wrote in its announcement. It added that earlier this year, SpaceX acquired xAI (now SpaceXAI), which operates the Colossus data centers in Memphis and Southaven, Mississippi.
Customers who sign up will pay between $27.50 and $65 per month for Starlink service, half the standard $55 to $130 monthly rates. New users won't have to pay upfront hardware costs, and the discount can be shared with friends.
SpaceX's vice president of Starlink engineering, Michael Nicolls, wrote on X that "The unique capabilities of the Colossus datacenters could not be accomplished without the partnership and support from the local Memphis community."
"Happy to bring affordable and great @SpaceX @Starlink connectivity to our neighbors," he added. Musk also promoted the deal on his social network.
The discount applies to eligible service addresses in parts of the Memphis area, with Starlink's map showing coverage around Memphis, Southaven, and Collierville. Existing customers don't need to do anything for the discount to be applied, while new subscribers can enter their address on Starlink's site to check eligibility. SpaceX has not said when the promotion will end.
