Hey IOS Folks 🫵
Added 2025-05-12 16:27:24 +0000 UTCOne of my Patreon pals, Upsaize (go follow them if you don't already, they are my bestie) copied this from another creator and I have been thinking about mentioning this for a good bit, just never had the right words to do it. If you subscribe to my Patreon through IOS on an iPhone/iPad I'd appreciate it, if yall gave this a quick read over.
Thanks in advance 💕

________________________________
I’ve noticed more and more people are subscribing through the Patreon app, so I think it’s important to mention this for anyone who might not be aware.
If you're thinking about subscribing (or renewing) to my Patreon via an iPhone or iPad, please consider doing it through your web browser instead of directly through the Patreon app on iOS.
Why?
Because Apple charges an additional 30% fee on all subscriptions made through the app — which means you end up paying 30% more for the exact same benefits.
By subscribing through the browser, you’ll pay less, and I’ll receive the same amount of support from you.
Also, you might be interested to know that Apple holds all creator payouts for 75 days. It’s not an issue for me personally, but when you add that to the steep 30% cut they take, I think it’s a pretty questionable practice — especially for smaller creators.
________________________________
Okay, but seriously, if you have a reoccurring subscription through IOS on the Patreon app, make sure you renew/join on PC or in a web browser. You'll be paying the correct amount without any up-charged nonsense. I hate that Apple added that, because it's dog shit. They don't care about you or me 😤
This change happened around when I had to stop Patreon and rebuild my PC and I completely forgot to let yall know and I apologize fam.
Much much much love - Etho 💕💕💕
