Must-Knows: Everything you need to know about Belga.press and your content.
What content do I have access to?
You will have access to all sources included in your subscription. In addition to these sources, Belga provides a complimentary package, consisting of several Belga-owned products as well as various media outlets that are already freely accessible today.
Looking for the ultimate multimedia, 24/7 reading experience? Opt for Belga real-time reporting and our radio & television offering. Our sales colleagues will be happy to help you get started via [email protected].
How do I browse through my newspaper or magazine?
It’s easy! You can find the newspapers and magazines you are entitled to in ‘Kiosk-publications’.
PLEASE NOTE: We have deliberately chosen high quality ($2$ to $3$ MB per page), allowing you to read every article even while browsing. As a result, your data usage can increase rapidly if you are not connected to a Wi-Fi network.
Why does my colleague have access to more content than I do?”
This is possible and depends on the specific contract your organization has with Belga. For further questions regarding this, you can always contact our sales colleagues at [email protected].
How accurate is the content per topic?
At Belga, we work daily to ensure the quality of our own reporting. However, within the context of Belga.press, we process thousands of items that require immediate ‘tagging,’ which means we rely on technology to assist us. Unfortunately, this technology is not flawless, and some items may occasionally receive an incorrect tag. While we do our utmost to continuously improve quality, it is unfortunately impossible to rule out errors entirely.
Known errors
While we naturally strive to avoid them, you may encounter error messages while using the web version. These can be linked to external factors, such as your device’s internet connection, as well as the supporting technology or any bugs present within the tool itself.
We do our utmost technically to ensure that all content is available and up-to-date. This is successful in about 99% of cases, though there are always situations where things may go wrong, for which we apologize.
Guest access
As mentioned earlier, even if you are not a Belga.press customer, you can use the web version, just like the native app. After a one-time online registration, you can enjoy access a limited set of sources, and you will be able to read items shared with you by other users.
Device and browser compatibility
The web version has been tested on various browsers and is responsive. As long as your browser version is not over two years old, you can use the web version on laptops, desktops, tablets, and smartphones. Please let us know at [email protected] if you encounter any issues with your specific device.
