Hello there
I'm wondering if I should change to Subscription Billing instead of 1st of each month.
Here are the details:
If you join on May 15th, you'll get charged again on June 15th instead of June 1st.
If you join creators with Subscription Billing enabled after the 1st of the month, you'll get a separate processing fee for each Join Date.
This is because Patreon handles fees to multiple Creators as a single transaction if they occur on the same day.
Read Patreon's article on Creator Fees for details.
This would only affect new patrons.
If you're a current patron, your Join Date is already set to the 1st so that's when you'll be charged regardless.
While charging at the 1st of each month is simple because we don't need to remember the billing date
But some people don't like being double-charged near the end of the month
Most other service in the world uses subscription billing and that how most people expected
So I want to hear everybody opinions on this one
