USD / 2026-10-24

How Patreon fees work

This calculator uses the standard 10% platform plan for Patreon pages published after August 4, 2025. The USD web/card processing assumption is 2.9% + $0.30 per payment, including payments of $3 or less.

Legacy plans and micropayment rates are not modeled. Non-US PayPal, conversion, payouts, tax and Apple in-app purchases can change the result. This compares costs, not feature parity: sunday sells digital products and courses, not Patreon-style memberships or community.

A few useful answers

How much does Patreon take from a $10 payment?

On the standard plan, a $10 USD web/card payment has a $1 platform fee and estimated processing of $0.59. You keep approximately $8.41 before tax, payouts and other adjustments.

Does this calculator use legacy Patreon rates?

No. It uses the standard 10% platform plan. Legacy plans, Founders processing and legacy micropayment rates vary; enter your own rates in the creator-platform calculator.

Are Apple in-app purchase fees included?

No. Eligible iOS in-app purchases can incur an Apple fee of 30% instead of ordinary processing, while the Patreon platform fee still applies. This tool estimates web/card payments only.
