PATREON

Patreon is a revolution for the individuals and organizations in the creative economy, for the first time enabling artists, makers and creators effectively to allow their audience to subscribe to their work, and pay nominal amounts in real time as they produce, rather than have to nance entire projects and productions themselves.

It’s fast becoming one of the most important creative networks in the world; launched in 2013, within ve years it had grown to a body of over 50,000 creatives collectively receiving $150 million in regular small instalments from a global audience of millions.
