So it seems to me, that they are pushing all the transaction cost of credit card processing on the patrons, and taking that 5% as their chunk of the pie.
Which frankly for the service they are providing is ridiculous, I dumped my account, and will work to find another format to support those I choose, without this 5% fee for nothing.
- kharms 9y ago>basically that fee, is directly inline with credit card process fees, its even structured the same. (1) At Patreon's scale you pay <2% per transaction, so there is at least 1% extra overhead. (2) That fee is present even with debit card transactions. I agree with you regarding finding another means to support creators.
