IMPORTANT PART:

New patrons will be charged the same day they joinned in, not the 1st of the month.
Theres a 30% Tax ONLY on IOS APP, Android APP and WEB BROWSER will not pay this tax.

Apple is acting up again, forcing Patreon to change its subscription system to a cycle payment and adding a 30% Apple tax, meaning the payment date is the day you join Patreon rather than the first of each month. This 30% tax ONLY applies if you joinned patreon through IOS APP.

Theyre saying that all existing patrons wont be affected, but I'm unsure if they mean just the date which you will be charged or the amount, or both. You can read the article for yourself if you want by clicking HERE <-

Other than this notice, I will add a reminder on my page that you can always join without the 30% tax simply by using a webbrowser instead of the IOS APP. Or use android. You can always just log in and watch the content through the app after you subscribed through any other means.

This does not apply just to me, this will be the case for every patron creator starting this november, being fully migrated to the new plan by maximum november 2025.

If you have any other questions I will try my best to answer just let me know ♥
