Does Everyone Understand about Apple? Please read (Patreon)
Content
Coming in November this year
Any NEW Patreon purchase done through the Apple App, is 30 percent higher in price, affecting new memberships ( I am assuming if you buy a new membership for a new creator and if you discontinue and then resign again to one you supported before. ) This does NOT apply for android app purchases OR web browser purchases, to my understanding. Please consider how you subscribe for new subscriptions in the coming months.
I will have to raise my fees through the ios apple app only just to get the same amount I received before or lose money myself, just like you, if there are NEW subscriptions through the app at that time.
Existing memberships are NOT affected.
My other understanding is they are also making creators switch to subscription billing, rather than per creation, or 1st of the month.
I am already on subscription billing, which probably only affects new members signing up, due to the amount of complaints of people signing up late in the month and getting charged again a few days later on the 1st. This only seems to affect new memberships
Nothing will change for me this way.
I wanted to make sure everyone is aware.
I am just finishing some files that will be up soon
