Bypass Paywalls Clean for Firefox
Add-on allows you to read articles from (supported) sites that implement a paywall.
You can also add a domain as custom site and try to bypass the paywall.
Weekly updates are released for fixes and new sites.

Installation
You can install the add-on from GitLab releases
Download the xpi-file (from latest release), go to downloads and install the add-on (or drag it from your file-manager anywhere on a page/tab in Firefox).
Or go to Tools > Add-ons (about:addons) > Extensions > Settings/Cogwheel - Install Add-on from File
You can add/pin the add-on icon to the toolbar with the toolbar extensions menu (jigsaw puzzle shaped icon).
Custom xpi-file has host permissions for all sites.
Minumum browser requirement: Firefox 86+.
PS although add-on was removed from Mozilla's add-on store (AMO) the add-on is still signed and checked for security by Mozilla ('minor' delays can in reality be a few days or up to a week though):
Please be aware of a recent change to AMO’s review process: All extension submissions with a significantly large number of users are now subject to human review by the add-ons review team before approval. This may, occasionally, result in minor delays publishing new versions of your extension on AMO. We’ve made this change to provide Firefox users with even greater security assurances for some of AMO’s most popular extensions.
If you want to permanently install the latest master ZIP-file from GitLab (with post-release fixes) use a Firefox browser which allows using unsigned add-ons like Firefox Developer Portable (go to about:config and set xpinstall.signatures.required to false) or LibreWolf (for both no automatic updates of add-on).
Or load a temporary add-on in regular Firefox (go to about:debugging#/runtime/this-firefox & load manifest.json from unpacked (master-zip) folder.
By default BPC has limited host permissions, but you can opt-in to enable custom sites (and also clear cookies/block general paywall-scripts for unlisted sites). You can also just request host permissions for the custom sites you added yourself (or click clear cookies (BPC-icon) to ask for permission for current site).
You can also install the custom add-on version (with host permissions for all sites).
Update
Add-on will automatically update or you can do a manual check for updates (in about:addons).
Either way you have to allow host permissions for newly supported sites (else no update will be installed).
You can also check for update of site rules at startup (opt-in); only available until about 10 days after fix-release.
For new sites you also have to opt-in to custom sites/request host permissions for new domains (or wait for new release).
Android
Add-on was removed by Mozilla from add-on store (AMO).
Current installations (by custom collection in Firefox Beta/Nightly or Firefox-clone) will stay active, but with no more updates.
There is still an elaborate workaround for regular Firefox (or Beta/Clone) though:
- install an old version of Firefox (like v68.11.0 from archive.mozilla.org or apkmirror.com); first you have to remove your current Firefox app.
Specifically for the add-on you can also use Firefox Beta or a Firefox clone like Fennec F-Droid where you can set a custom add-on collection (for amo-listed add-ons); again first install an old version of Firefox Beta v68.7 or Fennec F-droid v68.11.0 - download add-on's xpi-file (custom version if you want to use custom sites) from releases and install/open in Firefox
- now you can update Firefox to the latest version
- add-on will stay active & automatically updates to the latest version
- in add-ons it will be labeled as not yet available and also has no more option to enable the add-on in private browsing (in Firefox 116+ it may only show the option on automatic update of the add-on)
The experimental Mozac/GeckoView-based browser SmartCookieWeb-Preview can also install/sideload a xpi-file by url (Settings > Advanced settings > Sideload XPI).
No option to enable the add-on in private browsing though.
Or switch to Kiwi browser (Chromium) or use the adblocker filter/userscripts
Chrome/Chromium
Visit the Chrome repository of Bypass Paywall Clean.
iOS/iPadOS
Use adblocker with custom (content)filter & userscript (manager): https://gitlab.com/magnolia1234/bypass-paywalls-clean-filters
Troubleshooting
- If a site doesn't work, first try to turn off your adblocker (or other extension) and refresh page.
- Make sure the (new) site is checked under Options.
- Clear cookies by add-on's icon and grant permission for site (or opt-in to custom sites)
- You will be logged out for most of the sites you have enabled.
- Make sure you're running the latest version of Bypass Paywalls Clean.
- Some sites need to redirect to an amp-page (add an exception in your
Redirect AMP to HTMLorDuckDuckGo Privacy Essentialsadd-on). - If none of these work, you can submit an issue.
- This add-on works best alongside the adblocker uBlock Origin.
- If you live in the EU, also consider adding these filters to your adblocker (in order to remove cookie warnings): Easylist Cookies | I don't care about cookies custom filter. Some sites need to set a consent-cookie for (social) media.
