Regarding upcoming iOS app fee
🕑 Added 2024-08-12 20:48:33 +0000 UTCHi, everyone:
In November 2024, Apple is requiring Patreon to include an "in-app fee" for subscriptions made through the Apple iOS Patreon app. Fortunately, this fee is ✨avoidable!✨ Here's how!:
Do not subscribe through the iOS Apple App store! Instead, use a ✨web browser✨ to subscribe to creators to avoid this fee!
What else to know:
This fee will be added on top of regular membership prices when subscribing through the Patreon iOS app.
This fee does not affect current Patrons. It is only applied to new Patrons who join using the iOS app after the fee is implemented in November 2024.
BUT if you are a current Patron and you were to unsubscribe and re-subscribe after this fee is implemented in November 2024, you will be charged this additional fee if you do so through the iOS app.
We're pretty sure you can still use the iOS Patreon app to browse your feed as normal once you've already subscribed, just don't use it for anything involving a payment process if you want to avoid the Apple App Store fees.
If you have any questions, we'll do our best to answer them in the comments!

That's so greedy, I hope someone finds a way to sue them for making profits off creators hard work. Corporate greed knows no bounds 🙄

According to Patreon, it's 30% of the sale price and it goes to straight to Apple

Dude why the fuck is apple putting a fee on this shit? Hey I know your paying money to a creator for THEIR work but- ya know apple stocks are kinda low we could really use an extra few dollars every month 🥺🥺🥺 I fucking hate Apple hope they get sued. (Sorry im just pissed this shit is stupid)

How much is the fee? And does it go to creators? Or are they pocketing the money?
