The Courier’s standard online-only subscription is currently advertised at about 8 dollars a month (USD), with annual web access at around 80 dollars, according to the pricing shown in its official app listing.
What “online Courier” pricing actually means
When people ask how much “the online Dundee Courier” costs per month, they usually mean a digital-only subscription that lets them read stories on the website and in the app without hitting a paywall. The Courier is a Dundee- based regional daily that runs a metered paywall: casual readers see a few free articles, then are asked to register and eventually pay if they want full access.
The clearest public pricing example comes from The Courier’s iOS app, which lists a “Monthly web subscription” at 7.99 USD and a “Yearly web subscription” at 79.99 USD. Those web-specific prices sit alongside more expensive “Monthly subscription” and “Yearly subscription” options (22.99 USD and 229.99 USD) that are likely bundled or print‑linked packages rather than simple web‑only access.
Where the numbers come from
The Courier has experimented with paid digital access for years, placing its content behind a metered paywall back in 2016. Its sister paper, the Press and Journal, was reported at the time as charging 10 pounds per month for full website access, which gives a rough benchmark for regional Scottish news pricing. More recently, The Courier’s app store entry explicitly lists web- only subscription tiers, which is why the 7.99 USD monthly figure and 79.99 USD yearly figure are the best current guide for “online Courier” pricing.
However, prices on publisher sites can change without notice, and different platforms (direct web sign‑up vs app subscriptions) may show slightly different currencies, introductory offers or bundles. For example, separate app information for a Courier e‑edition mentions a 1‑month subscription at 10.99 pounds, suggesting that full digital replica access can cost more than basic web access.
Practical takeaways
If you’re just trying to read Courier stories online every month, the simplest benchmark is that web‑only access is advertised around 7.99 USD per month or around 79.99 USD per year. If you want extras like e‑paper replicas or print delivery, the monthly cost is higher, with app listings and historic reporting pointing to figures in the 10–23 range per month depending on the package.
Because the publisher can update its offers at any time, the only fully reliable way to confirm the exact current monthly price is to check The Courier’s official subscription page or app at the moment you subscribe.
