To Patrons using the iOS Version of Patreon
Added 2024-08-13 15:03:16 +0000 UTCBad new's everyone, Apple wants to slap fees on us and it's bad. When I say bad, like really really bad. The good news is that it won't take effect until November 2024 so plenty of time for you guys to switch to Android or just pay me through the Desktop/Web Browser option.
Please, please do not use the iOS version after November because it'll only benefit Apple. Thank you for your support.

I have good news, I contacted Discord Support Team, told them of the situation, and I got my account back, if you're still feeling concerned, lets trade code words to know I am the genuine article, what say you?

2024-10-07 18:24:29 +0000 UTCI bring unfortunate news, my Account for Discord as Wrath of Vajra has potentially been hacked or compromised, so please for all that is holy, DO NO TRUST IT.

2024-10-07 13:46:26 +0000 UTCWell, I would recommend you opt for that option anyway and still warn your users. Hell, maybe add a note in the tiers saying something like "Warning: iOS users are charged 30% extra due to Apple Pay, use browser instead of app." You're doing what you can by warning them, while still protecting your own income and whether the users heed your warning or not, is not up to you anymore.

2024-08-14 18:20:28 +0000 UTCYeah, I have that option but I really not want you dealing with that so warning you all in advance. I just hate how Apple tacked on this fee and how it all goes to them.

2024-08-14 04:59:24 +0000 UTCLike what JO LP said. It's really annoying and I dont want you guy's dealing with the extra fee
SirBearington
2024-08-14 04:58:20 +0000 UTCWell, according to another author who posted a similar warning for his patrons, authors will be given the option to charge the 30% extra to their iOS users. So if this is true you might not really lose profits yourself and it will be up to the users whether to pay the extra 30% or do the smart thing and pay through the browser, but that would no longer be your problem, I think.

2024-08-13 21:00:24 +0000 UTCAfter November you will ONLY be able to use Apple Pay in the app on iOS, that's why they're asking to either use the browser instead of the app or move to Android
JO LP
2024-08-13 18:14:56 +0000 UTCwait what do you mean? don’t use the app or don’t use apple pay
