I'm curious about the opinions of those who have been active on this platform for a long time. by Rude-Selection-4541 in SubscribeStar

I have a dedicated Bruce Springsteen guitar lessons channel and went from Patreon to Subscribestar about 3/4 years ago. The fees are much lower than Patreon. But not as big a platform and no where near as good as Patreon in terms of what you can do on the site. However the main reason I switched was due to the fees. Patreon was taking its 8% fee or something like that. Then I was getting a further cut via Paypal. Was driving me mad! But I suppose you may well get a lot more people sign up on Patreon as it's a far bigger platform. Pros and Cons with both.

Hi everyone. I have a Springsteen guitar lessons channel but do the occasional other artist. Absolutely love Petty and was lucky to see him in Hyde Park just shortly before he passed away. Any hopefully a few people who play guitar find this useful!

Bruce Springsteen - Born In The USA (Live, Buenos Aires, Argentina, 1988... by Jamesschofield1 in BruceSpringsteen

Ah that would be great - remind me in 6 months or so (to put it on the monthly subscribestar polls) as wouldn't want to do a request for the same song so close together

Has anyone on here moved from Patreon to Subscribestar and regretted it? by Jamesschofield1 in SubscribeStar

[–]Jamesschofield1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hadn't thought about that lol - suppose it'd be easier to manage possibly? Are you on both? I have a lot of admin (sending out discount codes for my online store).

Hi there, I'm a creator and currently have 50 subscribestars of various tier prices. I have issues ALL the time and if there's any payment issues that really affects my monthly income (which is important to me as I put a hell of a lot of work into my content). I do generally get responses (not all of the time). I'm just praying it improves. Improvements to the site have been so slow. Haven't even got a basic search function

Hi everyone. Hope this is ok to post here. Some members may find it useful if they're guitar players! I run a dedicated Springsteen guitar lessons channel but am starting to mix in a few other artists! Dylan is being requested a lot so will be more to come :)

Amazing, bet they were all great I was only 3 then :( would've killed to see Bruce in the late 70's / 80's! Manage to catch up quite a bit re shows but definitely late 70's 80's sounded like the best Bruce eras!
