As we first introduced final yr, Apple is requiring that Patreon use their in-app buying system and take away all different billing methods from the Patreon iOS app by November 2024.
This has two main penalties for creators:
1. Apple shall be making use of their 30% App Retailer payment to all new memberships bought within the Patreon iOS app, along with something purchased in your Patreon store.
2. Any creator at the moment on first-of-the-month or per-creation billing plans should swap over to subscription billing to proceed incomes within the iOS app, as a result of that’s the one billing kind Apple’s in-app buy system helps.
Earlier than we go any additional, we wish to be crystal clear about one factor: Apple’s payment is not going to influence your present memberships. It can solely have an effect on new memberships bought within the iOS app from November onward.
