IMPORTANT NEWS: BILLING CHANGES (Part 2)
Added 2024-10-14 15:58:01 +0000 UTCHotsatyr's Patreon is moving from “Pay per Post” to a “Pay per Month” billing system starting January 1, 2025.
This post is a continuation of Part 1
This change will be better for everyone, but it is a complex process, and it may take a few months to fully adapt. I will explain in a few points what will happen starting in January:
The three current tiers will continue to exist after the change, but the price of these will change, because instead of price per creation I have to put a price for the whole month. The Patreon team forces me to use a multiplier, and they have advised me to use a multiplier of 3 since I usually publish 3 paid works every month. In other words, the price of the tiers will be tripled. This change is mandatory by Patreon's technical support team, but from February I will have full control of the prices and I plan to lower them a little. I will make another post explaining the tiers changes in more detail.
I have been assured from Patreon support that those of you who now pay with a limit of paid works per month will continue paying the same after the change to monthly billing. For example, a tier Hottie member (2€ per work) with a limit of 1 work per month will continue paying 2€ per month after the change. And a tier Hot member (4€ per artwork) with a limit of 2 artworks per month will continue to pay 8€ per month. And of course, before the switch, it's a good time to become a member of my Patreon and get a good price for life.
The new billing method will be “Subscription billing”. So means members can “set it and forget it.” You don't need to select a monthly cap, because you’ll be charged one flat amount every month. Please check this link to know how subscription billing works.
With this method, I will have access to Patreon features that I didn't have before. For example, I will be able to offer annual billing at a discount.
If you have any questions, you can comment on this post or send me a message. I can't wait for all these changes!
