A choice of platforms

Our multi-platform education licence allows groups of ten or more users to have unlimited access to FT journalism via FT.com and third party news aggregation platforms.

Academic users of third party news aggregation services without an FT licence can currently access FT content 24 hours post publication. From 1 August 2013, these users will be able to access FT content that is 30 days post publication and will need to purchase a licence for anything more recent via these channels.

The price of an FT licence is based on the number of users, not the technology platforms used to access the information. Even if you use multiple channels, you only pay once to access FT content.
