What is the difference between your Digital-only subscription and reading via PressReader?

The key difference is where you’re reading, and what your access unlocks.

PressReader

PressReader is a third-party app (separate from CountryWide)

  • You’ll need to set up an account and log in to PressReader independently of your CountryWide website login
  • Your reading experience is contained within the PressReader platform

CountryWide Digital-only (via our website)

  • Digital access via country-wide.co.nz is linked to your CountryWide subscriber account

It allows you to access:

  • Subscriber-only articles
  • Member content and podcasts
  • The latest digital edition

In short: PressReader is a separate platform, while a Digital-only subscription gives you a full CountryWide website member experience.
