Switch to Annual Membership - Save 8% & Help Us!
Hey Patrons!
I wanted to drop this note now because we are days away from the end of the month which is financially (for you) the best time for your to change your tier or pledge.
Recently Patreon activated Annual Memberships on Noclip's account which means you can pay for an entire year of Noclip's Patreon up-front in whatever tier you want. This is cool in a number of ways. First of all we get all of those funds immediately. The Patreon cut is the same but we get more funding in the bank which helps us fund stuff now and plan ahead with more certainty. It's cool for you too because if you plan to stick around for the year - as the majority of our patrons do - we've decided to give annual members an 8% saving over paying month-to-month. For some people we think this is a pretty cool option.
We've already seen a bunch of new patrons go annual (including one dude at the production tier which literally convinced me buy some replacement tech I was putting off until December) but I thought it best to let you all know in case you were interested.
If you have any questions about swapping tiers or going back to monthly after one year this FAQ covers most of it but please feel free to stick your questions in the comments.
For those of you interested, this is how you do it;
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Setting up Annual
For existing patrons the following steps will help you switch over your pledge to annual.
Log in, hover over your profile icon in the top right corner, and select Manage Memberships
From your Active Memberships page click Edit next to the pledge you want to change
You’ll see a familiar checkout page where you can select Annual
Click Update. Note: you’ll be charged upfront for the discounted price

Thanks so much for help in funding our work. We're currently editing a bunch of big docs and shorts, along with new episodes of the podcast. Moreover the time off this month has helped me a lot in shaping some exciting ideas for 2021.
Thanks for believing in us. More cool stuff coming.

Hmmm, doesn't work on custom pledges...
Hmm, I wonder if this will help - I think you have to pick the pledge and then you can submit the custom amount you want. I only think this because we had some people who added the 8% back into their pledges which was pretty remarkable.
Unfortunately cannot afford to make this jump to yearly right now. Relying on the UK wedding industry for my sole income has meant a pretty awful 2020 for me. Your videos have kept me entertained throughout though so I am keeping the monthly payments on.
Done, keep up the great work Danny :D
Took a short break to fund a personal venture but I'm back on board for another year!
We noticed, thanks so much! Also the new credits format sticks you right at the top now. You beautiful starchy thing.
Wow almost 300 of you have gone to annual, I didn’t expect it to be this popular. It’s certainly helping us plump up that war chest, very exciting. Thanks folks!
Done! Here’s to another year!
Easy switch. Cheers, Danny.
+1 to the annual crew. Can't wait for the last episode of the Hades doc!
Done, looking forward to the next year of videos
Done :)
With that amazing artwork / photo edit, how can we not.
How does patreon handle if I choose to cancel, say in half a year? Last time I canceled a pledge I lost access to everything immediately, rather than at the end of my paid month. Though it might have been due to the creator having put the project in "no charge" that month. Anyway just curious.
Great question, according to the FAQ you shouldn’t cancel your pledge but cancel automatic renewal. That will let you run out the remainder of your year with continued access. Once the year is up your patronage will end - it doesn’t kick you back into monthly automatically or anything.
Well, you know we can't really say no to you... ;-) Done! Here's to seeing what you have coming up for us!
Nice. Might actually get on this later.
Done. Didn’t know this was ever an option with Patreon. Hope the annual sub helps gives y’all some peace of mind.
Well, since you asked so nicely
u got it chief
One more. And if we're going to move to annual, might as well move up a tier, while we're at it. Stay safe, and thank you for helping us all keep entertained in this tire fire.
Consider it done :)
Joke's on you, I overrode your 8% discount and paid the full $60 instead!
Done! :)
Easiest decision! I like saving money and supporting you guys, so yay! Two birds, one stone, all smiles.
Gonna make the switch asap. Need noclip in my life. Stay safe and thanks for all the great work so far.
Just switched! I am very excited about so many upcoming projects
Just made the switch! Thanks for all the work you do
Switched to Annual. Now go make me some docs.
Done
Swiched to annual and upgraded to tier 3, why not. I was planning to do it anyway ;)
awesome, thank you!
Done!
Wow thanks everyone, loads more people are signing up than we thought. Really appreciate it. Happy to answer questions if anyone have them.
> We've already seen a bunch of new patrons go annual (including one dude at the production tier which literally convinced me buy some replacement tech I was putting off until December) Hey, that's me! Haha! Glad to hear it had an impact <3
Command has been followed. Awaiting further commands.
Absolutely! Been a patron since the beginning. No regrets.
Just switched to Annual! That's great that we can offer you the money upfront - and the 8% discount is appreciated, but I'll give that back to you at some point when you do another donation drive. Godspeed buddy, don't forget to take time off for yourself! All of you!
I only saw this when I was changing up some other subs earlier this month. Changed mine to save then but did think ' but would negatively impact your funding?' so good to know it doesn't!! :)
Swapped from monthly to yearly and manually set it back to $36. I was going to spend that much monthly anyways but now you get it all upfront. Keep making awesome videos!
Swapped to annual! Thanks for sending this out, had no idea they added the option :)
Done
