If the need arises to pay for satellite television service from MTS, the subscriber can use one of several options. Thanks to the efforts of the operator, payment methods have been introduced that are suitable for both experienced Internet users and those who do not deal with it.
MTS, like many other providers, has already expanded its list of services.
You need to know about satellite TV from MTS before connecting

Features and benefits of MTS satellite TV
Equipment for connecting satellite television from MTS
To connect to the service you will need special equipment. The installation kit consists of:
- antennas;
- converter; LNB satellite antenna converter
- coaxial cable and F-connector;
- TV set-top boxes with HD or CAM module function;
Cam module MTS - smart cards.
MTS smart card
Important! When choosing an antenna, it is necessary to take into account the subscriber’s area of residence. So, for the main territory of the Russian Federation, a dish with a diameter of 0.6 m is suitable. In regions with a weak signal, for example, in Yakutia, Karelia, Primorsky Territory, the Republic of Sakha and the Kaliningrad Region, it is recommended to install a mirror with a larger diameter - 0.9 m.
When choosing between a TV set-top box and a CAM module, we pay attention to the technical characteristics of the TV. For TV devices with a built-in DVB-S2 receiver, we purchase the module itself; for all others, we purchase a set-top box. The number of set-top boxes/modules is directly proportional to the number of TVs.
Note! It is recommended to purchase installation equipment on the official MTS website https://sputnik.mts.ru/ or from the company’s dealers. Here all the subscriber’s data will be taken into account and the most suitable kit or its elements will be selected. The price of the complete set is 3100 – 6400 rubles. Installation can be received as a gift.
Coverage area
Television broadcasts from MTS are carried out thanks to the ABS-2A satellite, the coverage area of which covers the entire territory of the Russian Federation. Exceptions are the Chukotka Autonomous Okrug and the Kamchatka Territory.

How to simplify the payment process
In order not to fill out electronic payment details every month, you can make the payment once and save the document as a template. For subsequent debt repayments, you will only need to indicate the amount. In order not to lose the created template among other payments, you can assign it a unique name.
The second option for optimizing the use of Sberbank Online is to connect “Autopayment” to the card number. In this case, the user must set the payment frequency and specify a fixed amount. The funds will be transferred on the specified date to the service provider’s account; the subscriber only needs to confirm the fact of debiting via SMS.

Important! We also draw your attention to the fact that the cost of tariff plans for users from different regions may differ slightly.
Why you need to make payments on time
MTS is quite loyal to its customers, but if there is a negative balance or non-payment, the concluded agreement is temporarily suspended. This applies to all types of services provided by the company.
If debt for satellite television accumulates systematically and the user is in no hurry to pay the bills, the provider blocks the number. It is important to understand that such a punitive measure does not exempt the client from paying off debts. The operator can recover this amount by any legal means, including through collection agencies or the court system. In any case, there is little that is pleasant for the user, so services must be paid on time; fortunately, MTS offers several methods for this, and each subscriber can choose the most acceptable option for themselves.

How quickly are funds credited?
The main criterion for quickly transferring money to the subscriber’s balance is to indicate the correct personal account number; in this case, funds are credited through Sberbank Online instantly. Delays may be due to failures in the banking system, which Sberbank eliminates quite quickly.
You can transfer money instantly at self-service devices, this applies to payments from a plastic card and those made in cash. Funds deposited through the MTS website are also characterized by high transaction processing speed; the time for replenishing a subscriber account is 1-5 minutes.
Payments by receipt through a bank cash desk take the longest; money will be transferred from 3 to 5 business days.

Every popular e-wallet has the ability to pay for “MTS satellite”. Using Qiwi as an example:
- Log in to the website or application on your phone using your account.
- Find "Payments and transfers" and right there "Internet".
- Then click "MTS TV".
- Enter the invoice, amount and pay.
Polata from mobile account
This method is less popular, but when there is no money on the card or there is no Internet access, it is also suitable. Again, there are several ways:
- Through the My MTS application. We have already described it above. It is enough to select the phone balance as the debit source and the debit will go from there.
- "Easy Payment" website. https://pay.mts.ru/webportal/payments/801089/Kirov. It has also already been described by us. Just select the debit source – mobile account and that’s it. There are no more differences.
- All methods required network access. The USSD command is always available, so it will help even when roaming. This is also a type of “Easy payment”. Dial *115# call. Next, move through the menu until you see the item you want. Please note that here you can also write off from a card, and not just from your mobile balance. However, you will first need to link the card on the website.
- Via SIM menu. Look in the phone menu for “MTS-info”, in it “Easy payment”. If this is not the case, then the SIM will have to be replaced with a newer one.
These are not the only ways to take advantage of balance, but they are the main ones.
