When you decide to get satellite internet from Starlink, you would think, how do I create a Starlink account? It is super easy, and we will show you!
Having an account is important, as you need it to buy satellite internet, contact customer support, or if you need to buy any extra accessories from the site.
In this guide, you will learn the easy steps to make a Starlink account, the process of figuring out if it’s available in your area, service plans, and many more.
How Do I Create a Starlink Account?
To make a Starlink account, you must be prepared to buy the internet! There are many service plans, each with pros and cons. You are sure to find something suited to your needs.
Registering an Account
- Step 1- Go to Starlink.com. On the homepage, you would see the words ‘order Starlink.’
- Step 2- Choose the service plan you want from the menu that you see. You get two plans: Residential (for home use) and RV (travel plan). These different service plans help you choose one that gives you exactly what you need.
- Step 3- Enter your address and click ‘order now’ to check if Starlink is available in your area. Remember, the plans are only available in certain areas. Sometimes, there is a long sign-up waitlist, so be prepared.
- Step 4- If you get lucky and the plan you want is available for your area, you can order the equipment fully. Alternatively, you’ll be on the waitlist, for which you would pay $99 as a pre-order deposit.
- Step 5- You can complete the order by pressing on ‘place order.’ You will get a confirmation email through the email address you filled in, which also serves as your username. The confirmation email is to set the password for your Starlink account, so make sure you enter the right email.
Once you made your unique password, your Starlink account is active and ready to use. You can log into the website to see your account dashboard, where you can view the plans, accessories to buy, billing, and more. Remember your email and password because this is the information you will need to sign in.

If you like to use the Starlink app, it’s the same process to log in. You will use the same details that you would use for the website. The app is convenient, as you can easily manage everything from there.

How To Recover a Starlink Account?
Although you need to remember the details of your Starlink account, it is possible to lose your account details. This may be because of getting a new device or forgetting to jot it down!
Whatever the case may be, you can recover the account with the following steps:
- Go to the Starlink website and go to the Sign In page. On this page, you will see an option that asks if you’ve been locked out of the account.
- There are many account recovery options. If you forgot the password only, you would choose the option that says ‘phone’ or ‘email’ to get the password reset link. Follow the prompts on that and log in as normal.
- If you cannot remember the email, then choose the option that says ‘alternate email.’
- Depending on which option you choose to recover your account, you will get a message from Starlink, which will help you change your details.

Can I Get Through Starlink WIthout an Account?
It will be very hard to get through Starlink if you don’t have an account. When you want customer support, you can submit a ticket via the system, which is only available through the account on the website or the app.
However, you can get a contact number to phone Starlink directly or email them through their email address. But having an account will certainly make things easier for you. It will also pinpoint the causes of problems and any information you need about the dish.
You must also remember that while they are helpful with customers, it will take a while for them to get back to you. There are many Starlink users around the world!
