The social network Facebook recently announced that it will start charging users a subscription fee in exchange for ad-free access to the platform. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Facebook recently made this a reality \u2013 also in Slovenia. Users have already started receiving notifications asking them to choose which \u201cversion\u201d of Facebook they want to use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The user has two options: pay \u20ac12.99 per month, which gives them access to Facebook without ads; or continue using it for free, and \u201cdiscover products and brands with personalized ads.\u201d By doing so, you also allow Facebook to use your data for advertising purposes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The company guarantees that they will still protect personal data in accordance with GDPR legislation - of course, even if the user continues with the free version in exchange for ads and does not pay almost \u20ac13 per month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This price is also not uniform. If a user purchases a subscription on the website (i.e. in a browser), the price is \u20ac9.99 per month; if they subscribe on their mobile phone (in the app), the subscription price is \u20ac12.99 per month. They \u201cjustify\u201d the higher price by explaining that when purchasing in the app, Google and Apple also take a share of the earnings, namely \u20ac3.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Also interesting is the fact that if we decide to pay for the subscription, ad-free access applies to all linked accounts in the user's account center, but only until March 1 of the following year. After that, each user will have to pay \u20ac6 online or \u20ac8 in the app for each linked account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But what could be the reason for such a move, given that Facebook has been free since its inception in 2004? In the press statement they wrote: The social network Facebook recently announced that it will start charging users a subscription fee in exchange for access to the platform without ads.
