Why video creators are switching from Patreon
Built specifically for video. Better rates. Full control.
Keep $360-840 More Per Year
Our 5% platform fee vs Patreon's 8-12% adds up fast. On 100 supporters at $10/month:
Get Paid in Days, Not Weeks
Stop waiting for your money. Patreon makes you wait until month-end, then 5-7 more days. That's 35-37 days total.
Built for Video, Not Text Posts
Patreon started for podcasters and writers. We're built specifically for video creators from the ground up.
Actually Own Your Audience
Patreon limits your subscriber data exports and actively contacts your supporters to recommend other creators.
