We check every enquiry and subscription to make sure that only those with a legitimate interest in currency can access Currency News.
Currency News is published monthly. Subscribers read each issue online in a page-turning viewer, and Enterprise and Charter subscribers can also download it as a PDF. Printed copies are available as an optional extra.
Articles are also published on this website, where you can search them with Verity, our AI research assistant, and browse the archive of past issues.
Between issues, we send a free twice-weekly email with the latest news. Anyone can sign up for it: sign up for the free email.
The twice-weekly email is a free service, and anyone can sign up, whether or not they subscribe to Currency News. It brings you the latest news from Currency News and our sister publications Cash & Payment News and Coin & Mint News.
Sign up for the free email. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link at the bottom of every email.
As well as the monthly issue and full access to articles on this website, a subscription includes:
- CurrencyCheck, our banknote database
- Tender alerts, including tenders that are still open
- Discounts on related publications and events.
To protect its editorial independence, the Currency News newsletter itself does not carry advertising.
We do offer two types of advertising on the Currency News website and in the twice-weekly email: brand advertising and content advertising. Charter subscribers receive two sponsored articles a year as part of their subscription.
We welcome news, comments and suggestions for articles. There is no charge, and you don't need to be a subscriber. Content must meet the editorial policy and guidelines of Currency News, and publication is at the discretion of the editorial team.
