Billing Updates Are Now Live!
Added 2025-03-26 17:24:06 +0000 UTC
Hey everyone! Well I was originally schedule to have my billing switch happen on March 6th but Patreon was a bit backlogged with all the creators they are switching over. The good news is if finally switched last night and is now live.
I go into great detail in this post but here is a brief summary of the changes:
Patreon is deprecating their "per creation" billing model, which I was a part of and will only support a monthly billing model
All current Champion tier patrons have had their price locked in, so if you're a current member, you won't see any increase in price. I had a few exit surveys say the price increase was too high, but if you're a current member, it will be the same as what you have been paying, including any monthly limits that you put in.
The Champion tier will be deprecated on April 1st, so you'll have a few extra days to join it in order to get locked in at that tier rate.
All current Champion tier members can stay in that tier as long as they want as a thank you for all of your support over the years. This tier gets everything I have to offer including the VTT work so will be the best value for you.
I just want to reiterate that if you're a champion tier member, don't feel like you need to join any other tiers because you'll get everything from every tier as long as you remain in that tier.
The great news for the Foundry users is that now I can finally finish the Foundry Premium Content setup and begin distributing my modules directly through Foundry. This means no need for a manifest URL install for most of my maps with the exception of any module recreation which will still be URLs.
Phew! That was a big move and it took up a lot of time on my end so I'm happy to get back to making quality maps.
Thank you all so much for your continued support!
Cheers,
DM Andy

That is super odd for sure! What's strange is when I click on your profile it shows you are an active member in the current Champion Tier as of 24 days ago. So at least I see this on my end, however I also don't show you in my audience list (maybe there is a sync issue because of the billing update?). Either way, can you check something for me? Go to your settings and click membership from there. Let me know if you see my name listed there. Or you can click on this link: https://www.patreon.com/settings/memberships If you want, send me a DM of your email and I'll see if I can hunt it down on my membership list as well. I'm thinking it has something to do with the billing switch because you joined when I was "pre creation" in March but then my account switched to "monthly" also in march before anything was billed out for you so it might be confusing the Patreon data.

I looked into your account, and you're currently listed as a free member, which means you will not be charged anything on April 1st (or at all, unless you manually rejoin a paid tier). It’s possible Patreon sent an automated message based on a previous subscription. But rest assured, if you’re not actively subscribed to a paid tier, you won’t be charged. I hope this helps!

2025-03-26 18:28:49 +0000 UTCGot an email from Patreon saying I’m going to be charged the full champion tier fee? Is that right?
