You mean a button like on this page? (It's in Dutch, scroll a bit down)

We hear you. And we're working on it. This is only the first step of which many more will follow in the coming months.

Yep, rockin'. Now please just let me sign up as my own publisher and write directly on the platform :)
Good point. Our current "onboarding process" for publishers is a bit too heavy-weight to allow "just anyone" – even you ;-) to join Blendle right now.

This is definitely something we're investigating though. And in The Netherlands, there's already a collective of journalists who created a non-profit umbrella organisation to represent freelance writers, who have been onboarded into our system.

Also, the Blendle Button that I linked to above is it's own product, with a much less heavy-weight onboarding setup. We've already seen great success using the button on a German site like http://uebermedien.de/abo/ (in this case, a flat-fee subscription button). So that's definitely something we'd like to roll out to as much freelance publishers as possible.
