Help Improve Patreon With A Point Based Reward System
9 years ago
I'm thinking about using patreon later down the line, to ensure I can keep doing, what I'm doing. But if I'm going to use patreon, I would like a good system for providing rewards. The problem is that it doesn't really have one. So I came up with an idea, it you're interested, then I could share the results with the people behind Patreon so that they know.
All you have to do is answer two questions on this survey, https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/TSN8KS9
If you like the idea, please spread it around.
Here's the info, that you also can read on the survay,
"This survey have been made, to let the people behind Patreon.com, know if people support this idea.
My idea would be something like this. when a patron pledges, they earn points based on the amount pledged. They can then spend those points to get rewards.
The creator may add a reward such as, Allowing you to request something to be added to the production. They would be able to limit the number of that reward, how many you are allowed to get, how often it can be gotten and how often you can get it.
Another example would be a reward for getting your name in the credits. And because of the limits, the creator would be able to limit it so that each patron only can get one.
The creator would have a list over all the different rewards they offer, and they would be able to see which rewards people should receive. From that list, they would be able to set if the reward is being processed, and if the reward have been fulfilled. This would make it easier for the creator to manage their different rewards.
It would also help with some issues, where people choose to cancel their pledge, before they are getting charged, or where people are using payment methods that aren't supported. So it would encourage patrons to make sure they're pledging.
It would also make it more fair, as it rewards those who have supported a creator for a longer time, more equally to those who just started pledging for higher tiers.
On top of that, it would make it possible for the creator to provide rewards that would be very expensive, or require a lot of extra work for them to provide. For example, a reward for $500.
There could be some other uses, such as being able to vote in a pool. And the creator may choose to reward people with points, as part of a contest, or something similar."
