Subscribe to the Digital Versions of The Wall Street Journal, Barron’s and Marketwatch for $6 per Month for One Year
It’s been over a year since The Wall Street Journal began offering a subscription to its digital-only version for $4 per month for the first twelve months.
This $4 per month promotion has been somewhat off and on over that period, which is why we’ve published a post with updated links to the $4 per month deal for when the public subscription links are more expensive.
Now, Dow Jones is offering a subscription deal for not only the digital version of The Wall Street Journal, but also Barron’s and MarketWatch, too.
Digital Wall Street Journal, Barron’s and MarketWatch Subscription Deal
For what may be a limited time, you can subscribe to the digital bundle of The Wall Street Journal, Barron’s and MarketWatch for $6 per month for the first twelve months.
The bundle subscription provides:
- Unlimited access on WSJ.com and in the WSJ app
- Daily puzzles and crosswords
- Audio versions of WSJ articles
- WSJ+ premium benefits program
- Unlimited access on Barrons.com and Marketwatch.com
- The Barron’s and MarketWatch apps
- Access to all three publications with a single account
- Live events with journalists from all three publications
- Personal finance advice, stock picks, and news, all in one subscription
All for $6 per month for the first year.
Obviously, after the first year ends, you’ll be charged the current subscription rate at that time, currently priced at $49.99 per month.
You’ll definitely want to call – except in select states, California being primary, you cannot cancel a subscription online – to negotiate or cancel your subscription once the promotional pricing ends.
Customer service at The Wall Street Journal is pretty good about a quick cancellation call. They may offer a discounted rate to stay, but traditionally it’s not as good as the deals they’ll contact you with after you’ve canceled. It’s your call as to how you want to deal with the subscription once month 13 hits.
You can view the subscription deal and subscribe at the link below.

An Easy Way to Cancel
Another, potential, option for cancelation came to me purely by mistake.
I paid the $4 per month WSJ subscription via PayPal and a linked credit card in my PayPal account. After a few months, I removed the credit card that was the subscription’s payment method from the PayPal system due to an unrelated matter. When the next month’s payment tried to process it couldn’t, and automatically ended the WSJ subscription.
Luckily I was able to still access a $4 per month subscription link to re-subscribe. But, simply removing the credit card from your PayPal account – when you use PayPal and a credit card to subscribe – should be an easy way to end your subscription around month 12.
Then, hopefully, there’ll be a reduced price offer still available that can be used to re-subscribe.
Wrap Up
The Wall Street Journal is a reputable source that provides a wide variety of business, political, economic, personal finance and even personal interest stories.
It is a quality news source that provides much more than what its name implies.
And at $4 per month for the first twelve months, it’s a steal.
Now, for only $2 more per month – a total of $6 per month for the first twelve months – you can add the digital versions of Barron’s and MarketWatch to your reading list.
As we mentioned earlier in this post, the $4 per month WSJ deal has come and gone over the past year or so. Whether the bundle package will do the same, we can’t say. If you’re interested in the bundle deal, you might want to subscribe soon, just in case it’s truly is a limited-time deal.
