How to use this estimate

Adjust the starter scenario before setting tier prices

Pricing guide

Start with a $5 tier and 100 patrons, then adjust the inputs for your own member count.

Keep iOS purchase share visible if many fans subscribe from the Patreon app.

Use payout frequency as a cost input because flat withdrawal fees repeat.
