Patreon UPDATE 'CHARGE UP FRONT' (Patreon)

Hi everyone and thanks again for caring so much to be here helping us with our channel!

Patreon just offered us the "Pay Up Front" option, meaning any new donators will be charged for their donation right away and only on the 1st from there forward.

This is so important to our funding since about half of our support here delete their pledge or have failed cards during the 1st, then 'pledge' again after the 1st and make a pattern of this to receive our content for free. 

Situations with cards being stolen or just financial situations changing, I totally understand and only wish the best for you! It warms my heart that you care a lot to be here and do what you can! Thanks so much!

You all keep us going and keep me editing on a full time basis (which I love doing!). This 'Pay Up Front" will be a permanent change for newcomers that come and go. For all of you already donating, everything stays the same, unless you change tiers, you may be charged for the difference...

 New Patrons: New Patrons will be charged on the day they become our patron, giving them access to all content shared with their reward tier. On the 1st of the following month, they will simply return to being charged monthly at the beginning of the month.

Example: A patron joins our Patreon community on February 25th for $10 per month. They will be charged $10 on the day they join, February 25th, for February patronage. On March 1st, the Patron will be charged $10 for March patronage. 

Existing Patrons: Your existing patrons will be charged on the 1st of the month like usual.

If an existing patron increases their pledge, they will be charged the difference between their last pledge value, and the new pledge value. On the 1st of the month (and every 1st of the month thereafter) they will be charged the full amount of their pledge until they cancel or edit their pledge.
Example: So if you are currently pledging $5 and decide to pledge to our $10 tier, you will be charged the $5 difference right away... then charged the $10 on the 1st of the month as normal. I recommend waiting to increase your pledge on the 1st so avoid any extra costs.

This new and permanent option will help our channel so greatly since we can trust each pledge made and I can be more confident with possibly making our channel a full time career soon! I do edit full time already thanks to all of your support (about 30 hours as of late) and also work a 40 hour full time job... so with this option and your pledges, I may be able to make this my main focus soon.. meaning a lot more videos every week and POLLS for you all to VOTE from! Yay!

Thanks so much for your love, care and support! You all really do make this happen! I can't stress that enough! xoxo
