Important Read for EU Patrons
Added 2019-09-05 18:45:01 +0000 UTCYup I am always shitting bricks when I get these types of messages from Patreon D:
Anyway let me show you the message they send me:
****************************************************************************************************
Hey creator,
A new EU law is going into effect this month that will require Patreon to add an extra security step for EU patrons. This is to reduce fraud for card holders, and all companies with EU customers are required to comply.
As a result, some of your patrons may see a pop-up from their bank when pledging or updating payment methods that requests a username and password, a code sent to email or text, or any other authentication method supported by their bank. If your patrons have any questions or issues with one of these popups, it’s best to suggest that they contact their bank directly, as Patreon does not control the form.
To learn more, check out this article in our help center.
Your friends at Patreon

I am hoping this isn't going to be another huge issue and the banking Gods will have mercy D:
