# Introducing paid subscriptions

Posted by [Marshall Parr](https://blog.townswebarchiving.com/pastview/community/author/marshall-parr) on July 1, 2019 at 3:32 PM

Offering paid subscriptions for your collections will allow you to generate the funds necessary for sustaining and growing your digital archives and future projects, and puts you in control of managing them more efficiently. Decide the level of access you would like your visitors to have and grant time limited, paid subscriptions, for selected content. Generate revenue from your most exclusive archives, while allowing others to remain free; it’s your choice!

 

![](https://pastview-mail.s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/image/subscriptions-1.jpg)

 

Set access from as little as a few days or weeks, to months at a time, with the option to renew at the end of the designated period. Select journals, images and other items in your collections, or whole collections if you'd prefer, thereby enjoying a level of freedom that paid downloads alone cannot provide.

Have all of this for a one-off payment and take advantage of the endless possibilities.

For further information about how Paid Subscriptions could work for your collections in PastView, please [get in touch](https://pastview.townswebarchiving.com/contact).
