Should I Change to Subscription Billing?
Added 2024-04-05 05:04:04 +0000 UTCHi folks, I'm wondering if I should change to Subscription Billing instead of 1st of each month. Here are the details:
If you join on April 15th, you'll get charged again on May 15th instead of May 1st.
If you join creators with Subscription Billing enabled after the 1st of the month, you'll get a separate processing fee for each Join Date. This is because Patreon handles fees to multiple Creators as a single transaction if they occur on the same day. Read Patreon's article on Creator Fees for details.
This would only affect new patrons. If you're a current patron, your Join Date is already set to the 1st so that's when you'll be charged regardless.
Personally when I support other people, I like 1st of each month because I don't need to remember the billing date. But some people don't like being double-charged near the end of the month, also pretty much every other service in the world uses subscription billing lol
Which do you prefer?

I like 1st of month, easier to remember the date for when I'm keep tabs on budget.
