The companies also helped launch Friends by FUNKE, a new subscriber club from FUNKE Mediengruppe, one of Germany’s leading media groups. The program features a tiered loyalty system (Bronze, Silver, Gold) that rewards subscribers the longer they stay, while offering exclusive content, competitions, and partner discounts. With direct integration into FUNKE’s magazine shop, the program enhances the reader experience and creates new opportunities to win back former subscribers.

“With Friends by FUNKE, we’re strengthening our relationship with readers by rewarding loyalty in a very meaningful way,” said Andreas Klinkmann, General Sales Manager for FUNKE Medien National Brands. “This program gives us new opportunities to engage subscribers and offers added values – an important strategic step in our future subscription model.”
