Subscriber benefits
There is nothing like getting up in the morning and being able to pop out to the letterbox in your pyjamas to get your ODT, then sitting down with breakfast and a freshly brewed coffee and catching up on all the news, sport and entertainment before starting your day.
Welcome to the Otago Daily Times. We have been the independent voice of the south for 159 years and dedicated to delivering up-to-date local, national and International news to our readers.
As a locally owned newspaper we are continuing to report on the stories which really matter to the south, and as a community we are able to help make a real difference by bringing issues to light.
There are a number of benefits that come with being an ODT subscriber other than the huge savings and free* home delivery:
Never miss an issue
As a subscriber you will never miss out on your morning ODT fix – even when you are on holiday**.
Save up to a massive 55% on retail pricing
As a subscriber you save over 50% on the cost of the Otago Daily Times compared to if your were purchasing casually.
Delivery right to your home

Free re-direction
If you are holidaying in an area covered by our delivery team, as a subscriber, you can have your newspaper redirected** to another address (within our home delivery areas) at no additional cost.
