Welcome to the BARB Website

Detailed viewing data for all BARB-reported television channels and services is only available to BARB subscribers. If you are interested in subscribing to the service, please refer to the current BARB rate card (pdf) in the "How to Become a BARB Subscriber" section and e-mail us at enquiries@barb.co.uk giving us your name and telephone number, the name of your company, and a brief description of its business, together with an explanation of your intended use of BARB data. We will then forward a BARB subscriber application form to you.

All BARB subscribers pay an annual registration fee, currently £5,910, plus a quarterly subscription fee or licence appropriate to their category of business. These details are set out in the rate card. The cost of the data itself, or the BARB-related services provided by a number of data processing and research companies, is additional to the registration and subscription fees charged by BARB.

Some BARB-related services, usually for a particular one-off purpose, may be purchased from a data bureau, to be used strictly for internal purposes, in return for an ad hoc registration fee, as set out in the BARB rate card.
