NOTICE: Apple App store +30% fee coming 11-1-2024!
Added 2024-10-06 19:00:04 +0000 UTCHello MuseModels Patrons and fans just wanted you to be aware that Patreon is going to be changing supporters tiers starting 11-1-2024 due to Apples +30% added (AKA: Apple Tax) to Members subscriptions when subscribing to NEW Patron Pages. If you are a current subscriber this change will NOT affect your billing, only new supporters! I have made the decision to only have Muse fans be able to subscribe to my page via website (avoiding the 30% Apple tax fee) and not the Apple App renewal option. If you wish to join or renew your membership you'll need to use a web based browser.
In Nov 2025 this will auto revert to the App store payment option entirely. I'm sorry for any Muse members that maybe effected by this Apple policy. I am just trying to save you money!
This fee is ONLY in the IOS Patreon App - so if your membership is paid or renewed via the Apple App this fee will apply to you - which means your membership to Muse Model (and other creators pages) will be 30% higher! Neither Patreon nor MuseModels are NOT getting your extra 30% instead it's going to Apple directly.
I wanted to tell you this so you know what you can do to avoid this tax. I would kindly ask that you pay your membership via the Patreon website or use the mobile website do NOT use the Apple IOS app to renew / join Patreon creators pages. You can still access my content via the Patreon app (free of the Apple tax) just make sure payment is setup to be paid via a website NOT the IOS app!!
From Patreon: Apple is requiring Patreon to use their in-app purchase system and remove all other billing systems from the Patreon iOS app by November 2024. Beginning in November 2024 NEW memberships purchased in the iOS app will be subject to Apple’s 30% App Store fee. Apple’s in-app purchase system only supports our subscription billing model.
