Table of Contents
In 2013, Jack Conte, a musician, and YouTuber, were looking for a solution to his problems because his YouTube channel had millions of views and received little from the Platform.
Sad and tired of the current situation, he had the brilliant idea of creating a website so that people who followed his work could contribute an amount directly to Jack. In exchange for this, he would give access to his productive career.
He then told his project to a friend, and soon they put everything into practice. And so, over 8 years, Patreon has helped over 250,000 content creators with approximately 8 million contributors.

What Is Patreon
Patreon is a subscription platform that enables subscribers to help support content creators and favorite artists by paying a monthly fee per published post. Then the subscribers receive the content that these creators publish they also interact with the subscribers.
So the fans pay the creators a certain amount and get exclusive access to extra content and more details of the creative journeys. A win-win exchange. On one side, the artist’s creators keep their creative freedom and get paid for it. The fans keep their minds at ease, knowing where their money is going and supporting those artists they love. The Platform was then Founded by a creator who thought of many other creators.
Subscriptions
- Per year: the Subscription is annual
- Per month: you pay every month
- Per creation: you can pay on the first day of the month in a per-post billing order.
How To Cancel Subscription
Suppose you delete your account from the Patreon platform. In that case, you will automatically cancel your Subscription, which will delete your Patreon payment method. But suppose you wish to continue with your account but want to avoid paying for the content and your membership.
In that case, you should consider canceling the account from the Platform. To delete your account, you will need a deletion request that may take up to 30 days to be deleted permanently. And suppose you want to cancel only the SubscriptionSubscription.
In that case, you may do so in time, but there will be no refund afterward. Once your SubscriptionSubscription is canceled, you will be able to use the Platform’s services until the end of the billing period, i.e., the remaining days of your SubscriptionSubscription. And if you are billed after cancellation, you should contact customer service and ask for a refund. So what you should do and know before canceling subscriptions.
The first thing is to check all the terms, service policies, or privacy policies of the application. You wish to download and subscribe to it to make sure that cancellations can be made through customer service channels.
The second is that after you have subscribed to an application and not canceled, this SubscriptionSubscription will automatically renew, as this can generate charges.
You should also know that you lose most applications’ standard trial content after subscribing and canceling.
And the last one is that you should remember to manually cancel these subscriptions before the trial period, i.e., 24 hours before. Otherwise, you will have to pay the subscription fee.
