According to the publisher, all of its titles will be available at a reduced price through its iOS app on the same day that they arrive in stores.
"We want to be the leader in embracing the new digital format of comic books. We want to jump ahead of Marvel and DC," said Archie CEO Jon Goldwater. "We're going to lead the way with new technology going forward, to make our products as accessible and available as we possibly can."
Bestsellers including Archie, Betty & Veronica and Jughead will be available at the cut price of $1.99 (£1.25) per issue when the new policy is implemented.
Archie Comics' titles go day-and-date digital from April 1.
