Print subscriptions. Inside a modern platform.
Sesamy is the only subscription platform that handles print fulfilment: print integrations, distribution lists, and issue management, alongside digital paywalls and B2B subscriptions in one system.
Capability 01 · Distribution lists
Distribution, print and issues.
Distribution lists, print integrations, issue-based subscriptions, and missing magazine reports: all managed inside the same platform as your digital subscriptions. One subscriber record, one billing system, one source of truth. We work with the largest print distributors all over the Nordics.
- Distribution lists. Routes, postal segments, delivery schedules, and subscriber counts all live inside the platform. Your team updates a route, the print partner sees the change on the next run.
- Print integrations, native or custom. Native integrations with the largest print distributors across the Nordics: distribution files push from the portal on your schedule, delivery confirmations flow back into the subscriber record, no manual CSV exports. Any other partner plugs in via custom FTP, REST API, or upload flow, and the print files are accessible directly in the portal if you prefer to hand them over manually.
- Issue management and missing reports. Publish schedules, issue-based subscriptions, and reader-reported missing magazines are handled in the portal. Your CS team resolves a missing issue by adding a week to the entitlement, not by opening a ticket with the vendor.
Capability 02 · Unified subscribers
All in the same portal as digital.
Publishers running both print and digital on Sesamy stop reconciling between systems. Every subscriber is one record. Every bundle is one billing surface. Your support team opens one portal to resolve any subscriber query.
- One subscriber record, two entitlements. A reader with a print subscription who adds digital access does not become two records in two systems. Sesamy manages the full relationship with shared subscriber management and billing.
- Bundles, upgrades, downgrades, without reconciliation. Print-only to print + digital is one portal action. Downgrading from print + digital to digital-only is one portal action. No second system to update, no monthly reconciliation report.
- One billing surface across both. OCR/KID, Bankgiro, Billogram, card, Vipps. The reader sees one invoice line for the bundle. Your finance team sees one ledger. Your support team sees one payment history.
The full print surface
Everything your print operation needs. Nothing a legacy system forces on you.
The print workflows have not changed in decades: OCR/KID, Bankgiro, distribution runs, missing magazine reports. What changes is where they happen. Sesamy puts them inside the same portal that runs your digital side, with a modern UI and every action reversible.
Legacy workflows, modern execution.
OCR/KID payment processing. Renewal notices by post and email. Bankgiro and invoice flows. Sesamy handles the legacy workflows publishers rely on, inside a modern platform with self-service tools, real-time analytics, and API access. Fully operational invoice flows in Norway and Sweden today.
Self-service print management.
Your team manages distribution lists, fulfilment schedules, and subscriber changes without waiting for vendor support.
Missing magazine reports, resolved by the people who can actually resolve them.
Readers report missing issues through self-service pages. Your team sees the reports in the portal and handles them directly: add a week to the entitlement, reship from the next print run, issue a refund on the card or Vipps. No email chains, no manual tracking, no paper log. The subscriber record shows the report and the resolution next to every other interaction with that reader.

Common questions
What print publishers ask before switching.
Can Sesamy handle print subscriptions?
- Yes. Sesamy manages full print fulfilment including distribution lists, printer integrations with Helthjem and DI, issue-based subscriptions, OCR/KID payment flows, and missing magazine reports. Print is a first-class subscription type alongside digital, not a bolt-on or a limited module added to an otherwise-digital platform.
Can Sesamy replace a legacy print subscription system?
- Yes. Sesamy handles the same print workflows as legacy systems (OCR/KID, Bankgiro, renewal notices, distribution lists, issue management) inside a modern platform with digital paywalls, self-service tools, and API access. 80+ publishers have migrated from legacy print and subscription systems; the migration page lists the specific source systems we have experience with.
Can I manage print and digital subscriptions in one system?
- Yes. Sesamy manages print, digital, and B2B subscriptions with shared subscriber management, billing, and analytics in one platform. A subscriber with print + digital access is one record with two entitlements and one invoice line, not two records in two separate systems that your team has to reconcile.
Which printer integrations does Sesamy support in the Nordics?
- Helthjem (Norway) and DI (Sweden) ship as native integrations: distribution files push from the portal on your schedule, delivery confirmations flow back into the subscriber record. Any other printer plugs in via custom FTP, REST API, or upload flow, and the print files are accessible directly in the portal if your team prefers to hand them over manually.
How does Sesamy handle OCR/KID and Bankgiro payments?
- OCR/KID, Bankgiro, card, Vipps, Swish, and invoice are all handled natively through Billogram for invoice generation, payment tracking, and reconciliation. Your finance team gets one ledger across print and digital. Readers pay with the method they prefer; the reconciliation is automatic inside the portal.
How quickly can a print publisher migrate to Sesamy?
- Typical timeline is 2-4 weeks from signed contract to first paying subscriber on Sesamy, including historical data backfill from your existing print subscription system. 80+ publishers have migrated with zero downtime and full payment continuity. Read the full process and data-migration approach, including specific source-system experience, on the migration page.
