A Strong Finish to the Year
With the holidays upon us, Leaky Paywall wants your publication to put its best foot forward in preparation for the new year.
Set yourself up for subscription success, improve your free or paid trials, be inspired by example, find innovative ways to improve readership, and more.
Ready? Let’s go.
New Feature:
Add a Delay to Your Trial (Free or Paid)
Offering a trial period is a proven way to entice users to purchase a product. This is true for publications, too.
But now you can roll your trial period directly into a paid subscription. Whether the trial is free or paid, the new delay feature gives you the option to automatically transform the trial into something better.
Recent Update:
Corporate Subscription Sign-up
Corporate subscriptions are a quick and easy way for large organizations to share a paid subscription with their personnel. Anyone with an email address on the organization’s domain can access the publication. Now sign-up is even easier, eliminating the need to create a user profile. Corporation members just have to drop in their email and they’re ready to read.

Featured Tip:
Setting Up a Free Registration – Workflow
A free registration level is a powerful tool for generating new paid digital subscriptions. It allows you to gather email addresses and begin nurturing reader relationships. This updated workflow walks you through every step of setting up a free registration level in detail.
Featured Publisher
Iron & Air
Personable tone, sponsored content, slick UI: Iron & Air is a brilliant example of a print magazine doing digital right.
This high-end vehicle magazine has created an elegant and seamless reader experience and is focused on email- building in order to nurture reader relationships. Beautiful photos span the screen without disrupting the articles’ readability. A small notice bar at the bottom sends readers to the full digital issue containing the current article.
When triggered, the subscription nag fades out a teaser of the content on-screen and offers a free registration, with a brief summary of the benefits.
Go explore Iron & Air for yourself.
