Looking to just get 2% of Patrons to become annual patrons, that will put us back on track for the month! Thanks! If you upgrade let me know. in the comments so I can say thanks!!!!
Switching from monthly to annual billing
- Log in and hover over your profile image in the top-right corner to open the "user menu."
- Click on Manage memberships from the user menu.
- You'll be taken to your Active memberships by default and can click the Edit button next to your membership.
- The checkout page should be familiar – directly under the page header, you can toggle between monthly, or annual membership. You can compare the price of membership at this point.
- Select the annual price button and click the Update button. Please note, that you’ll pay for the entire year upfront
When is my next payment?
You have a whole year! Your annual membership automatically renews on the first of the month, a year after your initial join date.
Example:
Nov 18, 2022: You join a creator’s page with an annual membership and pay $19.20 for the year. You pay $19.20 upon confirming, and will have access to the creator’s patron only-content for your tier immediately.
Dec 1, 2023: Your annual membership auto-renews and you pay $19.20. Your annual membership will auto-renew on the 1st of December each year thereafter.
Is my membership monthly or annual?
The Active memberships page lists your payment schedules. Depending on how you signed up, your membership may be listed as:
- Per year: you're an annual patron!
- Per month: you pay monthly.
- Per creation: you pay on the first of each month, on a per post billing structure.
Making changes to an annual membership
If you're using the Patreon app, this help article will guide you through that: Updating your membership via the Patreon app
Increasing your membership will take effect immediately since you pay upfront.
How to upgrade your annual membership
- Log in to your Patreon account.
- Hover over your profile image to open the user menu.
- Click on Manage memberships from the menu.
- Click the Edit button for the membership you would like to change.
- Click the Edit button in the “Summary” section.
- Select your new tier at an annual level – there’s currently no way to switch to a monthly plan from annual terms.
- Review the details on the checkout page and click the Update button.
When you increase your annual membership, pro-rated credit from what you've already paid is applied to the new amount, and you pay the remaining cost for upgrading. When you make changes to an annual membership, it extends your year term from that date.
Examples:
- If you paid for a $120 tier and upgrade in the same month to a $140 tier, you pay $20 for the difference between the two.
- If you paid $120 in April and upgrade in June to a $140 tier, only $100 from your initial payment is left, so you'll pay $40 to upgrade.
In both of the above examples, your membership auto-renews in a year and you pay your new membership amount of $140 in full.
