Paywall
Significado: A system that blocks access to content unless you pay for a subscription.
A paywall prevents you from reading an article, watching a video, or accessing content until you pay. News sites like the New York Times and Washington Post use paywalls. 'Behind a paywall' has become shorthand for any content you can't access for free.
