Content

Hello there! I've found Patreon now has a pay per post option, and I'm always looking for ways to make my content as accessible as possible. Sometimes, becoming a patron isn't an option, I get that, so I'd like to try selling the ongoing comic per post for those who aren't Producer Tier patrons. To be clear, Producer Tier will always have access to all content. This is really just for free patrons and test drivers, who are testing the waters of what it means to be Bacchus patron, or those uninterested in the month to month model.

I am aiming for $1 USD per 10 pages but this won't always work out: Patreon doesn't let me sell things for under $3 USD (so comics under 30 pages would either not be for sale or would be set at $3 USD regardless) and if you are buying on your Apple/iPhone, the prices will be higher. Down the road, this means being more universal with PDF uploads, but I have a big backlog I'm still working through before I can dedicate time to setting that up.

Unrelated, but October's Suggestion Box closes tomorrow!

I could’ve sworn they’ve had that for a while. More than a few years at least. I remember MinMax3d having his subs set to pay per post when I joined over four years ago.

He had his set to pay per creation, or every paid post.

I just recently got the feature. Maybe I wasn't a creator for long enough or my subscription rates weren't high enough? Or, I could have just been ignoring features I had available to me. That wouldn't surprise me.
