my pledges are a few $1-2 amounts. because of the fee change+vat this means I'm charged 24% more than before. The more small donations you make the worse this gets. It's also worse for per creation than per month
-
This is exactly why it's such a bad idea

I am gonna see how the changes affect my pledges to you and
@KarlieneMusic over the next couple of months and then make a decision based on financial viability. If it doesn't affect me too much, I will be more than happy to keep pledging :)Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

Did some simple math for
@Patreon based on data from https://graphtreon.com/patreon-stats Median pledge amount seems to be around 4 bucks. Now let's try to settle all transaction fees: x = (4*1.029+0.35)/4 x = 1.1165 Sure, not very refined, but why not simply charge a 12% fee instead? -
I see some other sources state the average pledge to be higher, so the fee should be even lower, probably more around 9%-10%

Just out of curiosity, what's the cut Bandcamp takes? I'm trying to figure out what's the best deal for you; buy an album (at full price) or buy each song separately when they come out (at a fair price of course).
