Hey everyone - this is a pretty detailed and lengthy discussion of how Patreon works. 95% of our supporters are first time supporters - and I figured it would be interesting to many of you to see how some of this works - even on the backend.

I'm sure some of YOU already have ideas for their own Patreon channel now - if you need help or information, let me know! I can only recommend the system - it is fair, easy, secure and generally awesome :)

Also, I figured out that (what I suspected) the 600something dollars per video is incorrect. Due to capping of pledges it's more like 200-250€ per video. I thought this might also be interesting to you guys ;)
