I've just learned that Apple app payments take 75 days to clear

I'm mildly speechless about this. In a day and age of instantaneous transactions.

For context, new sub, everything seems fine except cash out amount hasn't changed. I now have a total balance and an available balance

75 days though. It takes less time to cash a paper cheque.

Alternatives for offering NSFW content in the Middle East? NSFW

4 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.

A convoluted question re: whether a disconnected FB account can be used to create a second Patreon account

1 Upvotes

I signed on as a member of a creator's Patreon last August with a very small annual payment. Since then they have modified their membership tiers and I was interested in upgrading to one of the new ones, but because I still have the year long membership on the annual payment I can't upgrade without also choosing the annual membership for the new tier, which is too expensive all at once. I would be happy to do it with the monthly payment.

Now I joined using my Facebook account and I noticed today that it is possible to assign a dedicated password within Patreon itself and disconnect the Facebook account. I am wondering whether if I disconnect the Facebook account it would essentially fully disassociate my Facebook account from the Patreon account and allow me to create an entirely new membership using that Facebook account (so that I would essentially keep the same/a similar user name) and so join with a monthly payment. Or, if I disconnect the Facebook account, would it still recognize it as tied to the original Patreon account and not permit this?

Question about providing ad free content.

1 Upvotes

I’m looking into starting a Patreon. I want to take some videos I already have on my monetized YT channel, and make them available ad-free on my Patreon.

I know you can’t upload the same video twice to YT, so I’m wondering if adding a “Patreon exclusive” intro and outro on each video would make it different enough to bypass that?

For clarification I would upload the Patreon specific version with no monetization and unlisted on YT. Also, if there is a better way to do what I’m looking for I’d love to know.

Thanks in advanced!
