People hate on patreon for getting rid of per-creation billing but did your audience even want it anyway? Having to budget for those occasional months that have 5 paydays in them and thus cost the user 25% more is annoying and I bet they got the feedback that per-month is vastly preferred by their paying customers.
Not even per-creation, but the weird system of always paying at the start of the month, instead of just subscribing whenever. It’s stopped me from subbing multiple times because I don’t want to pay double for one week of access.
The singular argument for that system is that it enables creators to pause payments for a month without it fucking up billing for people. I mostly sub to authors, and if they take a month off, the ones not doing the first of the month model have a lot of issues.
