Upcoming changes to NEW memberships in the iOS app (Patreon)

Hi all,

I just want to relay an important update to new memberships starting this November.

Apple is requiring that Patreon use their in-app purchasing system and remove all other billing systems from the Patreon iOS app. This means that starting in November, new memberships purchased in the iOS app will be subject to Apple's 30% App Store fee.

This will not impact the existing memberships at all. Apple's App Store fee only applies to new memberships purchased in the iOS app beginning in November 2024.

Any new subscription, I would highly recommend to subscribe through web browsers on your pc or mobile, instead of the iOS app, to avoid the 30% extra fee starting November 2024.

You can read their full announcement here.

Apologies for the inconvenience.
