About the new Tax on July 1 (Patreon)
Content
Hi everyone,
You probably might've been notified by Patreon about this some time ago, but basically Patreon is required by new laws to impose a sales tax on Patreon pledges starting from July 1. This heavily depends on where you're at; within the U.S. only about 50% of patrons will be effected because this law applies to about half the number of states, outside the U.S. then it really depends on each individual jurisdiction.
I was advised by Patreon that the impact is minimal even if there is a tax, and most won't notice it. Anyhow, I was given the liberty to work out what's being taxed, so of course I did my allocations in a way that saves you as much money as possible. I do this by breaking the tax evaluation of each tier into two components: payment for the content and payment as a donation.
If you need further info on this tax, you can check this link and if you need to clarify more with Patreon, you can contact them here
Thanks for your kind understanding.
