How much does WOW! internet cost?
WOW!’s cheapest internet plan starts at $9.99 per month with introductory pricing, which is incredibly competitive. When prices jump to regular rates, you’ll see only a $10–$15 per month increase.
In some areas, WOW! has data caps, which means you might face the dreaded overage charge. Luckily, data caps are pretty generous (1.5 to 3 TB) compared to what an average person uses (around 600 GB). If you do go over, the amount is capped too. You’ll pay $10 for every 50 GB, with a max of $50 per month.
If you’re looking for bundling savings, WOW! offers internet-based TV that you can bundle with your internet plan. You can add premium channels (prices vary) and phone service ($9.99 per month), but you won’t get a discount on your internet plan by doing so. WOW! makes its internet plans the main attraction, and everything else is a sideshow.
How WOW! internet stacks up on value
We gave WOW! a score of 4 stars out of 5 on value, which means what you get for the price overall is above average. WOW!’s price per speed on its mid-tier plans is typical for the industry, but it earns extra credit for offering first-year pricing under 25% of the national benchmark, the lowest of any internet provider we’ve reviewed.

If you want to get the most value from WOW!, you’ll need to sign up for autopay and paperless billing and sign a two-year contract. Most major internet providers have moved away from contracts, but in the case of WOW!, the promotional pricing is good enough and the penalties are low enough for early cancellation that it’s often worth the risk.

WOW! internet costs and fees to consider
In terms of equipment and installation fees, WOW!'s costs are pretty standard. You will pay for professional installation, and you'll have to pay a small activation fee for self-installation.
We like that the modem is included for the first year, but wish you didn't have to pay for equipment after that. Renting the Whole Home Wi-Fi system might be worth it to get the eero base and extender.
Want more context on what these fees mean? Check out our guide to understanding your internet bill.
Self-installation
$10 activation fee
Professional installation
$75
Equipment fees
$14/mo. for modem (free your first year); $9.99/mo. for two eero Wi-Fi pods and $5.99/mo. for each additional pod

The only way to get WOW! TV or phone service is to bundle with an internet plan. The TV service is streaming-based, so you would need to have an internet connection to access the channels anyway. We gave WOW!'s TV service a lower score than its internet service, but it could still be worth it to bundle if you know you want both services.
TV bundles
Medium Cable, Small Cable
TV + home phone bundles
Medium Cable + Home Phone, Small Cable + Home Phone
Savings tip: Services often come highly discounted when you buy them together. Be sure to
check WOW!'s bundling options.
