Switching over to "Charge upfront"
🕑 Added 2017-07-13 22:34:50 +0000 UTC Hey guys, just wanted to let you all know that I'll be switching over to something called "Charge upfront."Charge upfront means that when someone now pledges, they are charged the day they pledge, and then on the first of the month.
The reason for this is that there is a significant amount of people who do hit and runs, which means they pledge, download everything, delete their pledge, and then do the same thing the next month, which gets pretty frustrating. Charge upfront means that as soon as someone pledges, they are charged that day.
Thank you, all of you, for your support. It means the world to me : )
Here are some Q&As about charge upfront.
It's important to note we bill patrons in Pacific Standard Time. Please take this into account when pledging to a charge up front creator. If you pledge to a charge up front creator on 1st of the month, make sure it is not still the last day of the month on PST.
Since you are charged when you join a creator's Patreon community, you will have access to patron-only content right away and creators can start sending you any rewards that you might have earned. That said, creators may still maintain a monthly reward system, so make sure to double check with them if you're looking for a specific reward.
After your initial immediate charge, all following charges will take place on the 1st of each month. If you become a patron to a creator towards the end of the month, this might come across as a double charge; but the initial charge acts as payment for the month in which you became a patron and the next payment is for the month following.
If you increase your pledge amount for a creator who is charging up front, you are charged the difference between your previous charge and your new pledge amount.
Example: You had a pledge of $10 and you were charged $10 for that pledge. Then you increased your pledge to $15. You are charged $5. You increased your pledge to $16. You are charged $1.
If you decrease your pledge amount to a creator who is charging up front, you are not charged right away when you lower your pledge amount. The new pledge amount will be reflected when your pledge renews at the beginning of the next month.
Example: You had a pledge of $10 and you were charged $10 for that pledge. Then you decreased your pledge to $8. You are not charged anything when you made this change. The next time your pledge renews (at the beginning of next month) you are charged $8.
