Google has announced a significant price increase for its Google Drive storage plans in Nigeria. Starting from March 28, 2025, the monthly subscription fee for the 100GB Google Drive storage plan will rise from ₦950 to ₦1,900. Annual subscription prices will also increase from ₦9,500 to ₦19,000.
This price hike, which doubles the current cost, will impact Nigerian users who rely on Google Drive for cloud storage. Google One, the service that provides cloud storage for Google Drive, Gmail, and Google Photos, will be affected by this change.
Google notified its customers of the price increase, stating that the new pricing will take effect automatically on March 28, 2025. Users are advised to review their current usage and consider adjusting their storage strategies before the implementation date.
The price increase comes amid rising inflation and price bumps by businesses operating in Nigeria. Recently, the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) approved a tariff increase for telcos, and pay-TV provider Multichoice increased its prices by up to 21%.
