Patreon payout calculator
Estimate monthly and annual creator take-home pay after Patreon deductions and the payout method cost you choose. This page starts on a mixed-currency payout scenario so withdrawal fees and annual net are visible first.
Payout timing matters
Flat payout fees repeat each time money leaves Patreon. Use one monthly payout as the baseline, then test more frequent withdrawals only if cash timing is worth the extra fee drag.

Annual net emphasis
Use payout frequency as a planning input, not an afterthought
The receipt panel annualizes estimated monthly net after the selected payout cost, making withdrawal frequency visible in the yearly number.
For low balances, a flat withdrawal fee can matter more than a legacy platform-rate difference. If a method has a minimum threshold, wait until the per-withdrawal balance clears that line before treating the estimate as withdrawable cash.
- Monthly payouts usually keep flat withdrawal fees lower than weekly or ad hoc payout habits.
- If a method has a listed minimum, compare that threshold to net monthly income after fees.
- PayPal, Payoneer, and local banks can add downstream transfer or currency conversion costs outside Patreon.
