Patreon has released an update allowing US creators to accept payments via web links, enabling them to avoid Appleâs in-app purchase fees. This comes after the Epic v. Apple ruling, which helps apps redirect users to alternative payment methods. The update supports various payment options including Apple Pay and PayPal, although it currently applies to membership subscriptions. Future updates plan to expand alternatives to one-time payments. Patreon views this change as a pivotal moment for creator autonomy and community growth.
This ruling is a huge moment for creators and fans, and we will continue fighting for a future where creators are in control, communities thrive, and professional creativity is possible for all.
The new Patreon web payment option supports Apple Pay, credit cards, Venmo, and PayPal, allowing creators to avoid Appleâs high commissions.
