A paywall is a website monetization system that restricts access to digital content such as news articles, reports, videos, or archives and encourages visitors to purchase a subscription or paid access.
Common paywall models include hard paywalls that fully block content, metered paywalls that allow a limited number of free articles, and freemium systems where selected premium content is reserved for subscribers.
