Blendle is a Dutch online news platform that aggregates articles from a variety of newspapers and magazines and sells them on a pay-per-article basis. The key differences to similar websites are the participation by otherwise commercially unrelated news services in a single platform and the ability for registered users to easily pay a small price per article. It has been called an "iTunes for news" and a "micropayments-for-news pioneer" in various media. In July 2020, the service was sold to Cafeyn for an undisclosed amount.Six months later, Alexander Klöpping resigned from the group.

  • Blendle is a Dutch online news platform that aggregates articles from a variety of newspapers and magazines and sells them on a pay-per-article basis. The key differences to similar websites are the participation by otherwise commercially unrelated news services in a single platform and the ability for registered users to easily pay a small price per article. It has been called an "iTunes for news" and a "micropayments-for-news pioneer" in various media. The project was founded by Marten Blankesteijn and Alexander Klöpping. Blendle was backed by a Dutch government fund during its trial phase in April 2014. Half a year later, The New York Times Company and Axel Springer SE invested €3 million. In 2018, two other investors added $4 million. The service is currently directed at customers in the Netherlands and Germany, but can be accessed elsewhere. The service expanded into the United States in 2016, adding US-based publications. In June 2019, Klöpping stated that Blendle was still not profitable. At that time, it had 50 employees, and had paid out €8 million to news publishers in the five years since its launch. Klöpping also announced that Blendle would be changing its model to premium subscriptions instead of per-article micropayments. In July 2020, the service was sold to Cafeyn for an undisclosed amount.Six months later, Alexander Klöpping resigned from the group. (en)
