Important Notice Regarding Billing! (Patreon)

Dear Patrons,

I've experienced a few cases where someone has pledged to my Patreon at the beginning of the month, and cancelled just before the billing cycle begins. This means they've been able to see a month's worth of my content for free. As a lot of the content is only for you, my Patrons, I wish to avoid this in the future. Therefore, I've decided to enable the charge up front billing system for my Patreon.

What does charge up front mean for my current patrons?

- You will NOT be charged again this month, and you will have access to all of the content on your tier as usually.

- If you increase your membership during this month (June 2020), you will be billed immediately in full. In other words, if you're a $8 patron and become a $15 patron, you will be instantly charged $15 on the day of the edit.  

- If you increase your membership after the first month of charge up front (from July 2020 onwards), you will be charged only the difference between these two benefits. So if you're a $8 patron and become a $15 patron, you will instantly be charged $7 on the day of the edit. You will get your $15 patron reward instantly.

- You will be charged the total of your membership amount on the 1st of each month like normally.

In other words, the new billing system won't affect you in any way unless you're planning to increase your pledge. If you're planning to do so, I recommend you wait until July 1st if you don't mind giving me extra tip! :)
