Gedling Eye has been proudly writing news about Gedling borough since 2015.
While the majority of our articles, including breaking news, will remain free to read, from today, any news article over 18 months old will be available online for a small charge of 25p.
Over time, we may start creating some more in-depth new premium articles that will be available at the same price.
If you read more than three in a week you will have access to all premium content, which will be clearly marked.
We will be using Axate, a secure system which is already being used by many leading publishers around the world.
When you first access a premium article you will find instructions guiding you through the set-up of an Axate account, it only takes two minutes. and requires minimal personal data (to set up an account you will need to enter your name, email address and a payment method).
To get you started when you top up £1 today we will add another £1 to your wallet for FREE. All you need to do is set up your Axate account and start reading today.
Rather than turn to pop-up ads and surveys, we think that charging for our archive content this is a great way to ensure we are able to continue to provide a news service for Gedling borough long into the future.
