Patreon is a service that lets content creators have members who pay a subscription to receive exclusive content. Up to now, it has been able to do this via its iOS app without incurring Apple’s regular fees.
In a blog post — and now also emails to its users — Patreon has announced that it is about to be forced to pay the 30% fee.
