StarTimes Media (StarSat), a privately owned pay TV service provider headquartered in South Africa, was founded in 1988 and is a subsidiary of StarTimes Communications Network Technologies Co., LTD, a multinational company based in Beijing. Employing approximately 60 people as of 2023, the company reported revenues of less than $10 million that year. StarSat's services, launched across Sub-Saharan Africa in 2008, currently reach 30 countries and offer a selection of television channels.
OnDigital Media, the license holder for StarSat, ceased operations following its recent liquidation. This occurred months after the Independent Communications Authority of South Africa (ICASA) conducted a raid on StarSat's Midrand headquarters in October 2024, disconnecting its broadcast signals due to a lapsed broadcasting license. StarSat, a satellite pay-TV broadcaster, subsequently ended operations.
