Paypal is out
🕑 Added 2022-03-05 10:25:30 +0000 UTCWell, shit. I hoped we had months, but it's only been a week.
Paypal currently ceased operations in Russia (Payoneer is still weird but probably so too), making Patreon basically unusable in the country.
While we in the community are looking for alternative solutions and praying that the crysis will resolve soon, currently I have to unpublish the tiers and will put the account on hiatus closer to the end of month if the crisis does no resolve before that. Monthly picture will be done somewhere during March, I honestly see no point in hurrying anymore.
Thank you for your support, people, I hope we'll be able to work together in the future.

Adding my voice here to say if there’s another way to get you money I’ll happily do so. Love from Canada.

Some people saying that "Boosty" is still a good and only solution to migrate, but hopefully that'll not be necessary in not far future.

Just keep us informed on an alternative to pay for you. Art is smooth and nice.

Is there anything that can be done for you?

It's about me not being able to withdraw any. You'll be able to pay with little to no effort I'm sure, but the money will end up stashing on Patreon account and I won't be able to get them. Unless Payoneer works for me, since I managed to snatch an account before the ban of new user signup.

Am i the only person who is able to pay directly with my mastercard, or what is going on here?
Feeling so sorry for all the russian creators. I hope patreon makes a alternative others than payonner paypal

I sincerely hope you have other options. Things are going to probably get bad there. I pray for your safety and for the quick end of your country's tyrannical dictator.

How about some place like Subscirbestar or something that doesn't rely on PayPal?

I'll be waiting for tour return. Take care of yourself!

The only other options besides that is armed conflict or to let Russia do what it wants. The situation freaking sucks :/

This is the dark side us westerners don't want to see when we yell for sanctions and then every company has to pander to a stupid russophobia. Nobody seems to think about making a difference between the people and the authoritarian leaders right now. I love russians but i hate Putin.

I just read this in news, this is such a bullshit move...
