Join Readly!

Readly was built on a simple but powerful idea: that curious people should never have to choose between the publications they love and the ones they haven't discovered yet. One subscription. Thousands of titles. Journalism, culture, lifestyle, science, sport, and ideas from around the world, available on any screen, at any moment.

Readly is now part of Cafeyn Group. With the acquisition of Readly's non-Nordic operations, Cafeyn further strengthens its position as the European leader in access to information – combining scale, technology, and deep local market expertise.

Together, the Group now operates across 15 markets, serves 2.5 million users, and provides access to more than 5,200 publications from 1,100 partner publishers.

Our mission?

To empower individuals with access to trusted, high-quality content that fosters personal growth and discovery. Whether it's through the comprehensive collection of news and features on Cafeyn & Readly, the digital publishing solutions of Milibris, the fun and educative content for children on Kidjo, or the collections for manga lovers by Mangas.io, Cafeyn Group stands at the forefront of digital content experiences.
