Summary/Abstract: This article discusses the controversial pay or okay business model and examines its legal prerequisites and implications when used on online platforms within the European legislative environment. The analysis begins with a review of a decision by the Court of Justice of the European Union, which deemed this model legal, followed by exploration of its theoretical and practical problematic aspects. Criticism of the model primarily focuses on freely given consent and the pricing of the “pay” option. Consequently, the European Data Protection Board and certain national authorities have formulated positions and outlined criteria to consider when contemplating the implementation of the pay or okay business model.
