VERY IMPORTANT POLL Please read!!
🕑 Added 2022-01-20 15:34:02 +0000 UTCHi everyone!
So Patreon is a great platform that has served me well for a long time now but on the back end its a bit of a nightmare for me because it doesn't hook up with my shipping software like everything else I use, which means I have to import all of the orders using excel sheets and things get pretty confusing and its really easy to make mistakes.
I'm throwing around the idea of possibly moving my mail/subscription/patreon stuff over to my own website, it will work the exact same way- you just will subscribe through Fiveboos.com instead of Patreon, which means not only will it be easier for me, but you will also get tracking and order updates emailed to you automatically, which I just can't manually do right now.
My main worry is that people understand what a Patreon is and they're comfortable with that brand name and what it entails, and Patreon is a pretty big chunk of my monthly income so i'm worried people wont follow me over to a new subscription service on my website.
This would also allow me to combine shipping for your pins/stickers/etc and other orders that you place that month, so they all come together, saving me time, packing materials, and saving you from paying shipping twice!
POLL TIME- would you be willing to switch? or would you drop the subscription if it moved off of Patreon?
Feel free to comment your opinions !!

At this point I trust you as a merchant so I wouldn't mind that at all!! I would just have to remember when monthly fees come around
