Poll: Patreon Up Front Payment?
Added 2021-08-02 08:23:24 +0000 UTCHello.
As you may have noticed, the number of patreons has declined sligthly. Also some joined and left during the month, leading to an unstable pledge amount result. Now since my comic is free anyway, and the Extra-Section is still very small I do not really have a problem with people taking a look and, if they don't think it's enough, leave again. But I would prefer the pledge count to be more accurate, so I do not have to take back statements about goals beeing reached in the future. (Now there is no Problem with the first two goals that we did reach. But it could happen in the future.). So I'm playing with the thaught of changing the payment setting to pay-up front. (Note that according to patreon ( https://support.patreon.com/hc/en-us/articles/210291283-How-charge-up-front-works) there is no change for you guys conceirning your payment scedule or ammount.) It would just change that new patroens have to pay as soon as they join (not on the first of the coming month).
Now what I'd like to know from you is: would you have joined if it was pay-up front or was this open patreon style something that made you try out my site?

With the small amount of patreons I think monthly fluctuation is inevitable. I just noticed my payment info didn't go through because paypal was being difficult. If that happened to 2-3 other people then suddenly you have a big decrease in pledges. Do whatever feels right!
