Are there other ways I can support The Key?
Yes! Thanks for asking. As well as subscribing you can refer friends, and if they sign up we’ll send you all kinds of interesting digital gifts, download codes and more - check out your personal for more.
You can also click on any adverts you see on the site. They are put forward through Beehiiv’s ad network and we’ll get paid for every unique click through.
Does The Key pay its writers?
Yes. We pay a competitive rate for both writers and editors. Our other overheads are extremely low so the vast majority of subscription money will be going to paying people.
Can I pitch you ideas?
100%. We are keen on pitches and ideas as we build out our roster of writers. Please get in touch with us at [email protected]
