Reuters announced Tuesday it has launched digital subscriptions for its website and mobile app to customers in Asia, starting with Hong Kong, Japan, and Singapore.
Subscriptions are available for the weekly equivalent of USD $1: HKD$8 in Hong Kong, JPY¥150 in Japan and SGD$1.5 in Singapore.
The news follows the successful launch of digital subscriptions in Europe, North America, Australia and New Zealand. Reuters website and app users can access a limited number of articles per month before receiving an offer to subscribe.
“News outlets, financial institutions, companies, governments, and consumers rely on us to deliver the truth,” said Josh London, head of Reuters Professional, in a statement. “The new subscription plan enables us to deliver more value to our subscribers by expanding the reach and capabilities of our reporting and products.”
