Telegraph increases Saturday cover price

3rd February 2021
The price of the Saturday edition of the Daily Telegraph is rising by 20p from 5 February, but the publisher will be keeping back the improved retail margin for six months.
Copies in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland will increase to £3 from this weekend. In the Channel Islands the paper will rise to £3.30p and in the ROI it will cost €3.30.
The Telegraph says the deferred margin is down to the annual payment cycle of subscriptions, which means that any price rises do not immediately transfer to the subscribers. When the increased margin is applied, from 7 August, UK retailers will receive 61.5p for every copy sold.
