Reach members, show positions
The association magazine as a digital issue: for members by link and push, for politics and the press through Google.
Over 100 teams publish with Novamag
Why Novamag for associations?
Associations communicate in two directions: inward to members, outward to politics, the press and the public. A digital magazine serves both. Members read by link, push or QR code on any device, and protected issues sit behind a password. Positions and reports have their own URLs, are found in Google and can be sent to members of parliament and newsrooms. Nova AI takes over the previous magazine, and advertising slots help pay for it.

Digital magazines for associations: what's behind it
The most important terms, figures and workflows, gathered on one page.
Why a digital association magazine?
The printed association magazine reaches the address list at rising postage costs and says nothing about what gets read. As a digital issue it reaches members by link, push and QR code on any device, and politics and the press through a URL per article. Positions get found in Google, older issues stay in the archive, and tracking shows which topics move the membership.
How do associations protect content for members?
Issues can be protected with a password; only those who know it read, and search engines and bots stay out. Public issues for politics, the press and prospective members run alongside in the same project. That way the association separates member information from public positioning without running two systems.
How does advertising pay for the association magazine?
The ad manager places banners and interstitials per page or issue with a duration. Supporting members and partners receive impressions and clicks as proof, and slots can be released for booking. Unlike in print, the effect can be evidenced.
How do associations reach politics and the press?
Every position and every interview has its own URL with a title, a description and a preview image. Officers send links to members of parliament and newsrooms instead of attachments, articles appear in Google and get quoted as a source by AI systems. Nova AI sets metadata and alternative texts.
How do associations bring the existing magazine over?
Nova AI reads the print PDF, takes over texts, images and structure, and lays them out again in the association's project styles. Older issues move into the archive this way, which stays searchable under one domain. PDF export still delivers a print version for members who prefer paper.
What does a digital association magazine cost?
Starter from 184 euros a month, Professional from 445 euros with team accounts, the ad manager and Tracking Premium. Postage, printing and enveloping fall away; per issue the cost typically drops by 60 to 80 per cent.
