In short: In Austria you can buy the Starlink Mini directly on starlink.com or from retailers. Starlink only shows the exact price for hardware, shipping and plan at checkout with an Austrian address; prices and offers change often. Via a referral link, new customers get a bonus from Starlink (45 € in Austria, credited after 2 paid months) – but only when ordering directly on starlink.com. As of October 2026.

Mini or Standard kit?

Before ordering, decide which kit you need:

Starlink Mini Standard kit
For Travel, camper, boat, backup House, flat, holiday home, business
Router Built in Separate in the kit
Power 12–48 V, USB-C PD 100 W, 25–40 W avg 230 V power supply
Typical plan Roam Residential
Mounting Kickstand, mount Fixed on roof or facade recommended

At home the Standard kit with a Residential plan is usually the more stable choice – per starlink.com from €35/month in Austria (as of 25 Oct 2026; prices change). The Mini with a Roam plan is designed for travel and campers. The comparison of all options is on our home page.

Direct (starlink.com) Retail
Price Depends on address and offers, shown at checkout Retailer price, sometimes offers
Plan Chosen when ordering Activated afterwards in the Starlink app
Referral bonus Yes (terms per Starlink) Doesn’t count
Pick-up/advice Shipping Sometimes take home immediately
Returns Starlink’s terms Retailer’s terms

For orientation: in September 2026 the German roam order page showed the Mini kit at €199 plus €19 shipping. For Austria, the price Starlink shows at checkout with your address applies.

Ordering direct, step by step

  1. On starlink.com (via our referral link) enter your Austrian address.
  2. Choose kit and plan: Residential (Standard kit) or Roam (Mini or Standard).
  3. Check the price for hardware, shipping and the first month.
  4. Create an account, pay, wait for delivery.
  5. Set up at home: place it, install the app, let the software update run – before your first trip. Tips: Setting up the Starlink Mini – 7 common mistakes and how to avoid them.

Which plan?

  • Residential (depending on the country tiers like Lite, 100, 200 or Max): for a fixed location.
  • Roam (depending on the country e.g. 100 GB, 300 GB or unlimited): for travel. Within the Europe region there’s no time limit; outside, stricter rules apply since summer 2026.

All details: Starlink Mini for travel – costs, plans, pausing and Starlink outside Europe – the 30-day rule and travel registration.

Referral programme: how the bonus works

  • New customers who order kit and plan directly on starlink.com via a referral link get a bonus from Starlink. In Austria that’s 45 €; the amount varies by country per Starlink.
  • According to the programme terms the bonus is credited after 2 paid months.
  • Purchases in retail or on Amazon don’t count.
  • Starlink sets and may change terms and amounts. Our link is a referral link and labelled as advertising – we may also receive a reward from Starlink.

Installation in Vienna & surroundings

For the Standard kit at home a fixed installation with a clear view pays off. Our partner company Skyline Bau GmbH installs in and around Vienna on roof, gable, facade or mast – with cable routing and router placement, fixed price after a short site visit or photos: Starlink installation in Vienna & surroundings.

Warranty and returns

Statutory warranty rights apply towards the seller. What Starlink offers beyond that (e.g. return or warranty terms) is in Starlink’s terms for your country – read them before ordering. Keep invoice and packaging until you’re sure everything works.

Common buying mistakes

  • Buying in retail and expecting the referral bonus to apply.
  • Wrong kit – a Mini for a house with many devices, or a Standard kit for air travel.
  • Account in the wrong country – it should match your residence.
  • Setting up at the destination instead of at home.

FAQ

Does a Mini bought in Germany work in Austria?

The hardware works wherever Starlink is available. What matters is account, plan and home country/region. Make sure your account matches your residence.

Which accessories are useful?

The kit with kickstand is enough to start. For travel a 100 W USB-C cable or 12 V cable and, depending on use, a mount are useful – see Mounts and accessories for the Starlink Mini.

Does the referral bonus apply to existing customers?

According to Starlink the programme is aimed at new customers. Exact terms are on starlink.com.

How long does delivery take?

Starlink shows this at checkout; it depends on availability and region.
