Newskey is a payment platform that has two functions:
- Allow users to pay per article for paid content (up to a monthly maximum charge = the subscription rate).
- Accept donations quickly and efficiently , including micro-donations.
HOW IT WORKS:
Users visit articles and make donations at any Newskey-connected site, then later pay everything on one invoice..
Clients are paid out in a periodic lump sum comprised of all user payments to that client.
Features:
Media
- Per Article charges. Once a user is signed in to your site and registered at Newskey, the user can visit your paid pages without interruption, and is charged for each visit on their Newskey invoice.
- Set Monthly Maximum Rates, Free Articles Per Month, and reverse charges if an article visit is aborted before a set period of time. Monthly maximum rates can function as a subscription.
- Implement via the Newskey WordPress Plugin, or craft your own integration through our API.
- Works “stand-alone” or complements an existing subscription service by adding pay-per-article access (including sync with any existing free articles, monthly rates, etc.)
- Allows users to start immediately without adding a credit card, or credits.
- Authentication to your site means an increase in sign-ups. You have control over user engagement. Auto-registration of users at Newskey means fluid user on-boarding.
- Multi currency/international support : USD, CAN, EUR, GBP, AUD.
- Lump sum Client payments and detailed reports.
- Simple percentage based fee system and no monthly charge.
Donations
- Users can donate in three ways:
1. Link (a custom url created at the Client dashboard). The link contains all donation information (donation amount, etc.) within the url.
2. Client Portal at Newskey.net (Every client has a customizable portal attached to their account).
3. Client’s website (wordpress plugin or other API integration allowing donations without leaving the client’s website).
- Signed in users donate with one click. Signed-out users simply authenticate at your site or at Newskey.net, depending on the donation method.
- Users can pay (or edit) donations immediately or later along with other items on their Newskey invoice.
- Users may donate small amounts in any quantity (micro-donations) with no transaction cost penalty, since the transaction is processed with others.
- Recurring (Monthly) donation support.
- Charity Receipt support (Custom donation reports including downloadable CSV files. Clients must produce their own Charity Receipts.)
- Multi Currency Support USD, CAN, EUR, GBP, AUD.
- Simple lump sum client payments, detailed reports.
