Patreon fee changes
Added 2017-12-07 21:40:11 +0000 UTCHey y'all, just heard about how Patreon is changing the way they do fees. They used to take service fees from the creator side of things (which seemed to be working fine for everybody), but now they're putting the service fee on the patrons (2.9% +$0.35 per transaction). There's a lot of creator push back on this, but we aren't sure what's gonna end up happening. You guys are a huge part of why we are able to do what we do, so if you're considering leaving, please let us know and we'll try to figure out something to make it worth staying. Thanks guys ❤️ -Evan and Katelyn

That is awesome! Go patreon. Way to go for letting creators and patrons have a voice

2017-12-13 19:16:03 +0000 UTCWelp, looks like we, as a userbase, complained enough. They decided not to do it! <a href="https://blog.patreon.com/not-rolling-out-fees-change/">https://blog.patreon.com/not-rolling-out-fees-change/</a> They have a link on the post to the official survey they're running where you can leave feedback. I'm ok with paying the fee, but I think it needs to be aggregated with all my pledges. So 2.9% + 35 cents for my entire pledge amount for the month. That gives you guys more of the money and doesn't screw over the $1 pledges.
