Annual Pledges?
Added 2020-08-24 21:14:12 +0000 UTCHi everyone!
So Patreon has recently started extending access to having ANNUAL memberships as well as monthly ones.
I've had some people express interesting in paying in one lump-sum for the year before, but now I can potentially make that a possibility.
How would annual pledges work?
You can learn more about annual pledges HERE, but here's a run down of the main things.
- You'll be charged for the year upfront, and then make no payments for the rest of the year.
- You'll receive a discount of roughly one free month by doing this.
- That's about it, everything else will stay the same for you.
Again, if you would rather stay on a monthly billing cycle, then absolutely nothing will change for you. Only people who sign up to annual charges instead of monthly will be affected.
So yeah, this poll is to gauge whether there's enough interest in paying annually instead of monthly to warrant it. I'd really appreciate you answering the poll below, and if you would be willing to share any reasons you are for/against it, I'd love to hear what you have to say!
It does make things a little more complex behind the scenes in terms of calculating taxes and stuff, but it shouldn't be too bad if enough people want to sign on to it.

I would consider it, but with the current issues patreon is dealing with, I am strongly against it, so I'll stick with monthly.
