Patreon Payment Change (Patreon)
Content
Hey all, just to let you know that Patreon is ceasing the payment model we were using (1st of the month), entirely replacing it with the subscription model. This is due to requirements made of them by Apple and is out of our control, however we've decided to make the change immediately to avoid hassle down the line. Their explanations for what's changing on our end have been kinda terrible so I thought I'd explain it here as best as I understand it.
New Patrons
Any new patrons who sign up after this point will be charged each month on the day they signed up. So if you signed up today your payment day would be on the 9th every month.
Also if you're signing up via the Patreon iOS app then, from November onward, you will be charged an extra 30% fee by Apple. This will only apply to new patrons, like before existing patrons will not be affected, but due to this we would recommend anyone signing up to anyone's Patreon (not just our own) do so via the desktop site if at all possible to avoid extra fees.
Existing Patrons
If you're already signed up then nothing will change, you will continue to be charged on the 1st of the month. As far as you are concerned it's business as usual!
If you have any other questions feel free to ask, I shall now return to editing the next CC!
