New Patreon Rewards - Addressing Your Concerns
Added 2020-05-04 00:22:46 +0000 UTC
First of all thanks so much for your feedback regarding the new Patreon rewards. Some issues were raised so we decided to make a video addressing some of those concerns. Thanks so much for your support! 🙏🏼
Your account is the only one I've followed for this long BECAUSE of how much content you give us at just a dollar and I acc appreciate that you guys understand how much money people have to spend. Its definitely makes sense why there's not that much new content for this tier, I've followed other accounts with starting tiers more expensive than yours which offer way less. Actually, the only reason I ever log in to Patreon is to watch my old favourite reactions of yours! :)

1 dollar is worth of your reaction videos.

It ok. Your 1 dollar is great value. I wish can you allow us to vote for the movies. For each region you guys going to watch. So every supporter can be on the same page. How about ask the 150 contributor for five movies they like and we vote them.

We are totally okay with Additional benefits to Upper tier people. Based on Interests, Achara only videos can be put up. They are really cute..!!! She can Invite any of her friends on Video Call for the purpose. A customized birthday Video Wish (which is in these lockdown times) for the people close to These upper tier can be done.

I think that is where capping the rewards tiers comes into play. Like having a limit on how many people can sign up to each tier, so that once it becomes a specific amount, the tier is closed. I dont want the channel to change or be only about the higher tier patrons, but I also want to be able to suggest things for them to react to that I think will benefit the channel and also entertain the youtube audience. Its a tricky place to be, which is why I dont envy Jaby and Achara.
I kind of disagree that this is going to impact editorial decisions. Because the truth is, I have wanted them to do patreon tiers where they do requests based on the contribution, for a long time. I held my tongue because I respected that that is not what Jaby and Achara want to do. I only brought up the tiered model once they made the choice to go this way already. Whether they adopt my sugested model or not, there is a pay per play aspect right now. I am just making suggestions to make the current model a little more equitable.

Your One Dollar tier is probably one of the most generous and rewarding tiers on Patreon. I think this will be a great reward for the upper tiers...full support✌️

Rahul, I totally get your point, and thanks for helping Koay family. however, just to play devil's advocate, the whole point of Patreon is being patron of the arts. You being one of the top contributors should definitely get more access than the lower tiers, but the tiers you are proposing are veering towards a pay-per-reaction model ($25 per request) which may be financially lucarative to the channel, but the reviews then become a performance. They will also subconsciously will influence the editorial decisions of the reviews not to piss off the higher tier viewers. Unfortunately, the truth is, there cannot be equal division of their time based on the contributions. The priority will always be for the general public and the youtube channel as it should be.

Achara and Jaby, ive watched this video. And, as you know, I'm a long term patron. I used to be a $50 one and didn't feel like Im getting my money's worth so I switched down to $20. So you're spot on with that.
My thing with the new rewards tier is that the rewards aren't enough. I would probably prefer a mid tier for $35 or something where you can do 2 requests, $75 for 3 requests and $100 for 4 requests. I'm just spitballing here. I know that this might be a lot of requests at these rates, but just giving you feedback on what I would feel is bang for buck.
I support you guys either way, which is why I have stayed on for so long. Good luck, and I will support anything you decide.
