Past Months Rewards
Added 2022-05-13 18:58:59 +0000 UTCHey everyone! Hope your day is good ❤️
I get asked a lot about the monthly rewards - more specifically I get questions in regards to allowing access to previous months rewards.
As I get new supporters every month (seriously, you're awesome, thank you) you get as you know, rewards for the previous month upon joining. But you can't really access rewards for any month before that, and I want to give people the options to do so.
Since it would be really tedious to spam you with a million links every month or every time someone joins up, I'm planning/thinking about few different ideas. Here's what I have:
- Adding a benefit to the Gold Paw Tier, that will allow supporters of this tier to access past rewards at will, or either through special posts (or both)
- Removing restrictions on the accessibility of monthly rewards - not one time has someone requested I re-open the access to the rewards after new ones have been shipped out. As long as you're responsible and not uploading my works somewhere on the interwebz, I don't see a reason why they couldn't stay open. Note of course, that this would work for current patrons, so if you say, join in September, you can't automatically access rewards from the past year, for reasons stated above.
- Putting past rewards on Gumroad. I think this is a good idea in general, specially if you don't want to stay a patron for a longer time. This way you could pick and choose what you want to see and buy. I still need to research how to use Gumroad as someone outside the US. And don't worry, I would distribute those rewards very slowly, so anyone currently here doesn't have to worry about feeling like they've been lowkey cheated on since they already paid for some months. And I'm not sure if I want to put absolutely everything I've drawn there anyway, this is something I need to think about. Also not sure when to launch it, but I was thinking close to the 1 year anniversary of opening Patreon - sometime close to August this year.
So yeah those are my current plans and thoughts! Tell me what you think, and if you have concerns, suggestions or just want to say something about it, you're welcome to! ❤️
Stay safe xoxo
