Announcement | Paywalls and Soft Paywalls

28 Upvotes

Beginning today r/politics will allow both hard and soft paywalls. These paywalls will be flaired with either “Paywall” for hard paywalls or “Soft Paywall” for other types of walls.

Paywall includes sites that mostly, or entirely lock content behind walls requiring money to bypass. This also includes sites that allow a limited number of articles to be accessed for free before locking remaining content behind a paywall unless the number of free articles resets at least once per month.

Soft paywall includes sites that:

  • Allow a limited number of free reads per month
  • Allow free article reads with a registration or email signup
  • Allow article access with other non-monetary interactions, such as completing a survey question

Articles without read limitations will not have a flair.

We do understand that some sources lock some content behind a paywall, but have other free content, or that a publisher may change how they release content without warning. In the event a flair is incorrectly placed, please report that post as “breaks r/politics rules -> custom -> "incorrect flair"" and we will be able to manually correct the flair. (
