An honest story on our funding & what you can expect next
The world needs to know about Romania. It needs reliable information and truthful stories from Romania, and with help from readers, we can make these happen. This autumn, we want to double the number of members who support Romania Insider. Corina Chirileasa, the co-founder of Romania Insider, writes about our plans, shares the results of our membership campaign so far and the “ free content for all” pledge for the coming months. How will this influence you as a reader of Romania Insider?
Frequently Asked Questions
We've got the A's to your Q's
How can I just read your site without seeing any banner advertising?
You can read Romania-Insider.com banner - free starting with the FAN membership package. After having logged in on your Steady Account on Romania Insider, you will be able to continue on our site without seeing banner ads or video ads. Text advertorials will still be visible in all membership tiers, as it is technically not possible to remove them.
Can I connect my app on Android or iOS to my membership?
The membership packages purchased via Steady are only valid for desktop and mobile website use - in your browser. If you’d rather read Romania Insider in our dedicated iOS and Android apps, we provide dedicated app subscriptions directly in the app markets, which cannot be unlocked with the Romania Insider website logins. You can download the apps for free and then choose either a monthly or a yearly subscription from within the app. For the iOS app, go to his page, and for the Android app, go here.
What do these premium newsletters include?
All our members receive the Monthly Wrap up newsletter, a minimalist bulletin with essentials. For our Supporter and Ultra members, we are offering our premium daily and/or weekly press review newsletters, without any advertising and without any links to click to read the news, as well as the Politics monthly and Mergers & Acquisitions monthly newsletters (no ads), exclusively. We continue to offer our free five more newsletters, which are supported by advertising.
How do I receive the premium newsletters included in my plan?
Upon signing up for a membership plan, you are automatically added to the distribution list for the premium newsletters included in your plan.
How do I cancel my membership plan with Romania-Insider.com?
You can cancel your plan anytime, directly with Steady by logging in with the credentials you chose upon signing up, on this page.
A Note from Corina Chirileasa, the co-founder
About independent journalism
It's hard to know what media to trust these days and to keep up with the flood of information.
Imagine a world where you can't tell which information is true and which isn't. What article is paid for by a company or which text is dictated by a politically – biased newspaper owner.
In that world, you are no longer free.
But together, we can prevent that from happening.
Romania Insider is the living proof that journalism can be done ethically. For the last 10 years, we've been a free, independent media voice dedicated to Romania.
You, our reader, can now support us in continuing our mission and providing the truth about Romania, to everyone in the world.
Nobody tells our editor what to publish – and you can make sure we're still around to go by this rule.
As a Romania Insider member, you help us continue to deliver the content you love. With your membership, you make sure we focus on content instead of finding ways to fund our media and survive.
As a logged-in member, you can give your attention only to what matters: you won't see any banner ads – thanks to our partnership with trusted German provider Steady, which handles memberships on our site.
You'll be the first to read articles especially written for you, and you will be able to suggest stories for our editors.
Information is power: with the Romania Insider members-only newsletters, you will make informed decisions without relying on translators and without losing a lot of time to scan all the news. Our editors do this for you every day.
With our carefully – curated daily, weekly and monthly newsletters, you can have peace of mind that you won't miss anything important for business or leisure. Leave it to our senior journalists to make the selection.
As a member, you will join our exclusive Facebook group, where you can interact with our team of journalists and editors and start the conversation with the media.
By joining our small-format webinars for free, you can discover insiders and kick off new business relationships.
As an Ultra member, you will be able to offer a free membership pass to a friend: two for the price of one, and you can share all your membership benefits with someone else.
So far, over 400 members joined Romania Insider. You can have a say in Romania Insider's future too!
Quality, independent media
