Premium subscribers to the Spanish daily newspaper El País will now get full access to The New York Times and its supplemental products like Wirecutter, Cooking, and The Athletic.

“This alliance reflects EL PAÍS’s desire to offer its readers the best and most demanding information available at a time of particular global tension due to the wars in the Middle East and Ukraine or the US elections, and also on long-standing challenges such as the climate crisis or the debate on migration,” editor-in-chief Pepa Bueno said in the announcement on Tuesday.

Earlier this year, El País launched a U.S. edition, which aims to cover the United States and its Spanish-speaking populations.

The offer is only available to subscribers in Europe and Latin America. Users will have separate accounts for each publication.

The deal is a steal for avid news consumers. The premium annual subscription offered by El Pais costs €144 ($158 USD) and includes full digital access to El País and business newspaper Cinco Días, as well as other perks like premium newsletters, limited advertising, and access to e-versions of the print edition.

Separately, an all-access New York Times subscription (with Games, Cooking, Audio, Wirecutter, and The Athletic) in Spain costs €20 ($21.94) for the first year, and €90 ($98.74) in the second year. In Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, and Ecuador, an annual all-access New York Times subscription costs $10 in the first year and $90 in the second year. (In the United States, a full-price all-access New York Times subscription costs $25 every four weeks — or about $325 per year.)

Now, with an El País subscription, premium users will pay $105 for both publications. This deal is even cheaper in Colombia: An El País annual subscription costs 388,000 Colombian pesos, or $91 USD.
