ios App Store Fee + Patreon billing changes (Patreon)
Content
Hi everyone!
I wanted to make you aware that starting in November, new membership purchases made through the ios Apple Store will come with an additional 30% fee attached to the tier price. This is the 'App Store Fee' and will be in place from November so that Patreon can keep their app on the ios store.
I would recommend using the website directly once these new changes are in place or you will be subjected to this additional fee. (I do not receive anything extra with this fee, it goes to Apple.)
This will not effect you if you do not pledge through the ios Patreon App.
| The App Store fee does not apply to existing memberships and memberships made on other platforms. |
Here is article on patreons help centre that explains these changes.

Also due to changes within Patreon all creators are being gradually moved over to 'subscription' based billing. This means new members will be charged on the date they subscribed each month rather than the 1st. Existing members will still be charged on the 1st as normal.
