Reuters announced Thursday that it is adding digital subscriptions for its website and mobile app in eight new countries: the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Kuwait, Puerto Rico, Montenegro, Monaco, Iceland and Liechtenstein.
The digital subscription plan is for the local currency equivalent of approximately USD $1 a week.
There is no up-front discount periods, step-ups or surprises, and subscribers can cancel at any time. Reuters website and app users can access a limited number of articles per month before receiving an offer to subscribe.
“Reuters reports from the front lines of conflicts, the halls of government, and inside corporate boardrooms globally. News outlets, financial institutions, companies, governments, and consumers rely on us to keep them informed on happenings around the globe,” said Josh London, head of Reuters Professional, in a statement.
The announcement follows the successful launch of digital subscriptions to customers across Europe, North America and Asia-Pacific.
