Annual Memberships, and changing Patreon currency - Updates
🕑 Added 2021-09-15 17:10:01 +0000 UTCHi all,
Just wanted to put a quick note here to let you all know of a couple of changes I'm making on the Patreon backend.
Firstly I'm enabling annual memberships, which allows Patrons to opt to pay a years worth of pledges in one go, and in return gives a discount which I believe to be two months' worth. This seems a no-brainer and gives another option to everyone.
Secondly I am going to change the currency of the patron page from USD ($) to GBP (£). This is due to the fact that I am UK based, so having the Patreon income in my local currency makes the amount I receive each month more consistent- currently it fluctuates with the exchange rate which can be a bit tricky. You should still get billed in your local currency, with patreon doing the conversion.
I'm conscious that this might mean that the amounts you are charged each month might increase a bit as a result - simply because GBP is a 'stronger' currency, so a heads up on that.
There will probably be adjustments to tier amounts and the benefits at some point this year, both to reflect the above and I try and add a couple of new rewards into the tiers that I've thought of.
As always, any feedback and comments let me know.
Next Patreon update will be either at the end of this week or beginning of next, with a general update on the videos that are in production!
