Important Updates & Special Offer
After three years of free investigations, we’re moving to a reader-supported model. Secure 40% off forever and help us continue exposing corruption across Eastern Europe.
For three years, Gunpowder Chronicles has delivered rigorous, document-based investigations into the forces threatening democratic norms and human rights.
From tracking Russian disinformation to exposing high-level corruption across Eastern Europe, our team has operated with a commitment to truth over noise.
Since our inception, we have offered our continuous investigations, including the dedicated work of our Albanian news desk, entirely for free. While we are grateful to the readers whose donations have supported us, the reality of high-risk investigative journalism is that a “free” model is no longer sustainable.
To ensure we can continue to hold power to account without compromise, we are moving to a full reader-supported model.
Key Changes Starting April 7, 2026
Albanian News Desk: Access to our Albanian-language investigations will move behind a paywall and will no longer be available to free subscribers.
English Edition: The English-language edition will also transition to a paid-only model for our primary investigative reporting.
This decision allows us to remain independent from corporate and political influence, relying solely on the readers who value our work.
Special Transition Offer: 40% Discount
We want to make this transition as easy as possible for our community. Starting today, we are offering a significant price cut for all new and transitioning subscribers:
Standard Rate: £12.00 / month
Special Offer: £7.20 / month (40% OFF)
Act Fast: You can lock in this 40% discount forever if you subscribe by April 27, 2026.
