Important Patreon announcement for iOS users! (Patreon)
Content
Hello! Another quick post to mention that there are going to be changes to Patreon for all iOS users.
Apple now requires Patreon to use their in-app payment system for processing payments on the Patreon app on iOS, which means that they can collect their own fee on top of the usual stuff.
What this means for you guys is that iOS users will have to pay more money if they subscribe THROUGH THE APP. So the main two options here are for me to cover Apple's share for every person that subscribes through iOS (not happening, I'm not giving these leeches a cent) or for users on iOS to pay more.
HOWEVER! If you're on iOS and would like to subscribe without paying an arbitrary fee, you can easily do so from your browser instead! Just go on the Patreon website in Safari (or other browsers, idk what's available on iOS), log in and proceed as usual!
If you sub through the app, you WILL be charged around 30% more (whenever the changes roll out, which should be this month) for absolutely nothing. I don't get more money, Patreon doesn't get more money, it all goes in Apple's pocket.
NOTE: This only affects new subscribers! Existing subscribers on iOS are not affected by this change (however, I assume that if you cancel your sub and resume it later on, you will have to follow the instructions above in order to not get overcharged, so be vigilant).
Thank you for reading this, and stay tuned for more content (NNN and otherwise :D)
