Pricing insights for 日本経済新聞 電子版 - ビジネス・政治・金融・経済ニュース
Downloading this app costs nothing in any tracked region. There is no paid download, no trial gate, no upfront charge. Installing it in Portugal, Germany, Japan or anywhere else gives you the same free shell.
The real money sits inside the app. The premium membership tier, sold as a monthly plan, is where regional pricing diverges sharply. In Portugal that monthly plan lists at EUR 40.99. In Germany the same monthly plan lists at EUR 439.99. That is a 91% price difference measured across 11 regions — a gap large enough to change which store you sign up through.
Why the spread exists: NIKKEI INC. sets membership pricing per storefront, and EU storefronts are not uniform. Portugal sits near the bottom of the range, Germany near the top. Region switching before purchase is the single biggest lever here, and it applies to a recurring cost, not a one-time buy.
A few other numbers worth knowing. The app carries 26 distinct in-app purchase products, so the monthly plan is only one line item. It also runs on iOS and falls under News. Across 53 tracked regions the store listing does not flag it as an auto-renewing subscription, so check the renewal terms on the purchase screen before committing to a monthly term.
Users rate it 4.81 out of 5 from 472 reviews, which makes it one of the better-rated paid-news options in its category.
The app earns its keep through depth: business, politics, finance and economics coverage, which is exactly the material you cannot get from a free aggregator. The free download is the sampler; the membership tier is the product. Decide your region before you tap subscribe, because the difference between EUR 40.99 and EUR 439.99 is paid every month, not once.
