Like us first announced last yearApple requires Patreon to use its in-app purchasing system and remove all other billing systems from the Patreon iOS app by November 2024.
This has two important consequences for the authors:
1. Apple charges a 30% App Store fee on all new memberships purchased in the Patreon iOS app, in addition to any purchases made in your Patreon store.
2. All creators currently using first-time monthly or per-work billing will need to switch to subscriptions to continue making money from the iOS app, as this is the only billing type that supports Apple’s in-app purchase system.
