Tier price increases (coming March)
Added 2025-01-31 22:47:33 +0000 UTCHey guys!
Edit: I decided to stay in the CAD dollar but just increase based on the USD value
I just wanted to give you a heads up after this coming month is processed I will be raising my tier prices slightly to stay in line with the original USD prices I set when I opened up.
Our dollar is not doing well and I had my prices set to be relative to the USD originally but I'm actually losing value on my tiers as our dollar continues to depreciate.
Swapping back to the USD won't do me any better because paypal takes 3.5% of my earnings to convert it from USD to CAD on top of their own dynamic currency conversion rate which is usually significantly lower then the current market.
I can dynamically update my commission rates which I am constantly doing as our dollar drops, its a little bit of a pain but its not something I can do as freely with Patreon without disturbing folks and I havent updated my rates in about a year. Our dollar will continue to drop further as well.
if you are uncomfortable with the price adjustments, these changes won't be made until after payments for february are processed, these changes will be for the period of March and onward. I understand if people don't wish to support me anymore because of these.
Tier Price corrections: (I've attatched the a screen of the current tiers for reference)
Cheep cheep I'm a peep! - 2 USD/ 2.91 CAD (from 2.75)
Peeper - 5 USD / 7.27 (from 6.75)
Peep Supreme - 10 USD/ 14.54 (from 13.50)
Magestic Birb - 20 USD / 29.08 (from 26.50)

2025-01-31 23:22:19 +0000 UTCOh wow, didn't realize how much PayPal takes for price conversions, but either way, which ever works in your favour with the fluctuating CAN $ I will support.

2025-01-31 23:15:57 +0000 UTCI think it will dynamically change for you, it will be a 20 cents difference in the change overall, that must be the patreon fee they charge on top for supporters. I just went through and converted the prices with google ;;

2025-01-31 23:10:21 +0000 UTCI believe Patreon shows you the value of the tiers in your native currency, but no all my tiers are priced in CAD!

2025-01-31 23:09:56 +0000 UTCI actually ended up just doing a price hike, it wont really be noticeable on the lower tiers, the USD wasn't going to work out for me because of paypals rates

2025-01-31 23:08:17 +0000 UTCThis is very understandable. Shame about th CAN $ but it is pretty out of whack at the moment.

2025-01-31 22:54:38 +0000 UTCI thought you were already collecting money through the USD
