[...] sistema que establecen algunas webs para separar los contenidos que se ofrecen gratuitamente de aquellos otros por los que se exige un pago.

OBS

barrera de pago; muro de pago : La Fundación del Español Urgente(Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, indica que la expresión "barrera de pago" puede sustituir al anglicismo "paywall" [...] También se emplea con frecuencia en español la denominación "muro de pago", a partir del sentido más característico de "wall", que asimismo puede considerarse aceptable. No obstante, "barrera de pago" aporta el matiz de que el límite entre los contenidos gratuitos y los de pago puede ser franqueado mediante un pago, mientras que la palabra "muro" sugiere un límite infranqueable.
