In 2014, Netwerk24 started charging a fee for access to certain content, making it available only to subscribers. Netwerk24’s paywall has evolved over the past eight years into the hard paywall it is today. In 2020, News24 followed suit and implemented a paywall. Both websites now offer a mix of free and paid content as part of their business strategy.
