Humanity Wall

There is always a very urgent need for funds during a humanitarian crisis, a natural disaster or any other sudden crisis. During crises like these, publishers can temporarily replace their 'paywalls' with 'Humanity Walls'. This way, the revenue model of the paywall temporarily becomes a very powerful fundraising tool.

Humanity Wall works with 'Paywall' mechanics: a 'Paywall' or payment wall only grants you digital access to information when you pay for it. Usually, you get to read the first part of an article and suddenly a payment wall appears. The mechanism is mainly used in online versions of newspapers, magazines and other publications. Humanity Wall uses the exact same principle. The big difference: access is not granted via a commercial payment, but via a donation.
