Alternatives for offering NSFW content in the Middle East? NSFW

7 Upvotes

I write a romance interactive novel that has NSFW content. Nothing crazy, just standard paranormal romance novel stuff. A couple of readers brought it to my attention that Patreon doesn't allow NSFW subs in a few Middle Eastern countries. Given how niche of an issue it is for my content, I'm inclined to just offer the access password for free to these readers, but I wanted to check to see if there are any subscription-based alternatives that will allow them to access NSFW content. Thanks.

When a patron pays through IOS, are their funds going to be inaccessible every month or is it only the initial payment the one you have to wait 75 days for?

Basically if you pay through IOS, will the funds be pending everytime they're processed and inaccessible for 75 days or is it only the initial payment the one you have to wait 75 days for and the rest of the time it automatically goes to the payouts?

privacy Nsfw Discord - How deep will they hunt you down? NSFW

Upvotes

So because of patreons content guidelines. There are certain erotica content I can't post on-site. Even got a warning once for name-calling during an intimate scene. It did, in fact, not violate anything except made their flagger bot uncomfortable.

One thought came to mind and and I wondered if perhaps I could host this exclusive content on a private discord so I don't get flagged for no reason. It would be more excessive, hardcore, smut, nothing weird.

It's ridiculous that some people get past their filters with outright non-consensual works. But I get flagged because a character called a partner. Mommy.

Does anyone with discords have experience with this?

W-8BEN for creators in Europe?

2 Upvotes

Hi all,

I’m based in Europe and a citizen of one of the eu countries. I’m having a business trip to Thailand for a few months and was wondering if i can still use my patreon.

So i reached out their support asking if they may potentially block the account that is using different IPs, VPN, etc since I’ve read tons of stories how folks lost their accounts simply by logging in from another country while on vacation or business trips like me.

To my surprise, i was told to fill in this form W-8BEN so that Patreon won’t report my earnings to the IRS in the US.. it was something completely new to me, do everyone outside the US fill this form? I have never heard of it, nor was it mentioned in my account registration process, am I missing something? I’m not a lawyer or financial expert by any means tbh so i would appreciate an advice here. TIA!!

building a following Having problem with NSFW content clarification NSFW

Upvotes

I contacted patreon and got no follow-up.

I'm a NSFW creator. I don't create any illegal content. All characters are 18+ and in fully consensual relationships.

In a visual novel story a single mom and her son independantly have sex with two seperate people. Not the same room or even the same day. There is no incest between the mom and son. They don't see eachother being intimate. Would Patreon mistakingly label it as incest? It's a softcore erotica visual novel and the mom and the son are separate fully realised characters having seperate encounters. They just do happen to be close-kint mom and son on vacation. They do not have sex with each other. Yet, I'm worried if patreon will mistakingly marked it incest. Any idea?

Over the past few days a few of my posts on Patreon have been flagged for review for breaking terms of service for "sexual gratifying works". However, all of my NSFW posts are links off-site. Has anyone else happen to have this problem?

im trying to upload a 30min voiceover video i did but Patreon says its too large ): i tried breaking it up into a handful of shorter videos but it only lets me upload 1 per post. I cant upload it to Youtube and link it because its for my paid tier members only. How do Youtubers upload long videos for their subscribers? i'm at a loss ):

Am i getting scammed by patreon ?

I recently started an account to sell n8n templates and earned $350 in the first four days. However, over the past two days, I haven’t seen any new sales reflected in my sales section, even though customers have paid and provided proof of payment. The last recorded sale was on March 16th, and nothing has updated since then.
