Charging Up Front enabled (Patreon)
Content
Hi friends just a small announcement for you.
It doesn't affect current patrons its more related to new patrons.
UPDATE: There are some unclear moments regarding billing process. I am checking this topic now with Patreon.
But to be sure all goes right i have enabled this feature.
Will keep you updated in case anything changes!
UPDATE 2:
Ok now problem is more clear for me.
There was issue with patrons who were joining in the middle of the month and leaving before the end of it.
Patreon works this way : immediately after joining the tier patron gets access to all the content. Payment will be charged only on 1st of the next month in case patron stays subscribed. If person deletes the pledge before the end of the month then Patreon doesn't count him as patron and does not charge him.
I believe it is normal when people unsubscribe, especially at this crazy times. COVID, financial problems or simply release for next month isn't interesting for them. And i suppose they do not even know that payment won't be charged for the subscription.
So enabling upfront payment should solve this issue for downloading content without payment.
In case people join to receive one specific release they do not need to stay one full month to be charged for it.
Thank you all for being loyal and for your support!
