Content

OK

I know every one is on edge

and this is probably not the best time to drop this but,

I shot a video explaining whats going to happen but,

It sucks

so I’m going to try to ease you all into this the best I can

Ok?

Here goes…

Patreon is implementing sales tax

Ok, there I said it.

so yes, Patreon has to now take sales taxes.

in only certain states.

Each state is rolling out it’s own weirdly and wild interpretation of what is taxable, what isn’t, and at what rate.

Some states only physical goods are taxable, and some states includes digital content. 

you know that scene in chicken run, were all the claymation chickens spontaneously start screaming and running about.

Yeah that one

Good movie.

Ok

we done running about?

Good.

Cause Patreon isn’t just dumping this on our laps and saying “good luck wit dat.”

They reached out to creators back in early April and worked with us about how this is going to be handled.

Essentially they gave us a tax tool box.

Since not everything falls into the same category of goods, they’re letting us set what taxable value each tier and each reward offers.

If I’m right, which happens sometimes (I swear), people at the $1 and $3 tier shouldn’t see any change to your pledge amount.  If you do then whats 7% of 25 cents?

Seriously I don’t know, what do you call a three humped camel?

Every thing I offer at the first two Tiers is either Discord, requests, or early access.

I can’t find anywhere in any of the laws that says those things are taxable or even considered “Digital goods”.

People at the $10 Tier, at most you may have to pay 20 cents extra. Some of you may find you live in a state where Digital items have their own tax rate, at which you will be paying 2 cents extra a month.

Not even enough for your governor to buy bubble gum.

Honestly, compared to Patreon last “great upheaval” this is being handled pretty well.

They gave the creators the power to mitigate this issue and make things bearable for you our patrons.

If I haven’t said it before I’ll say it now.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING A PATRON!!!!

Well already paying $2.40 VAT since I'm european. Would have thought Patreon would automatically do this since they already do international VAT automatically.

tigerthighs

Yeah. So this doesn’t apply to you. You’re already doing VAT. If you don’t mind me asking, where are you? I need to know if I should be jealous or not.

tigerthighs

It’s a new law going into effect in July here in the states.

7% of 25 cents is $0175. So you only get $0.25 on one dollar sponsorship?

tigerthighs

ok, so for the $1 tier it includes requests and early access to sketches and Discord. so that $1 is divided by three. so each item for tax porposses is .33 cents each. Each item is subject to the states sales tax that you the patron live in. The more items added per tier the more that gets spread out. $3 = Discord, requests, early sketches, and early comic= divided by 4. $10 = Discord, early sketches, requests, comic, and exclusive NSFW content. The point is that not all content is taxble under these new laws. Patreon gave us a way to parse out what kind of content and what percentage each type of content is valued at.

tigerthighs

If you need me to clarify anything. I know I'm kinda disjointed when writing.

tigerthighs

I will be on Discord through out the day tomorrow. https://discord.gg/cdatzxw
