Buy Me a Coffee Adds Monthly Support for Ongoing Creator Support Without Expectations
Buy Me A Coffee / Monthly Support
Buy Me A Coffee has introduced Monthly Support, which it says is one of its most requested features. With Monthly Support, fans can provide recurring support to creators. When contributing, fans can select the "Make it monthly" checkbox, with the amount based on the number of coffees chosen. Subscribers receive a monthly invoice and can cancel anytime.
Why It Matters: Monthly Support gives creators another way to monetize on Buy Me A Coffee. It bridges the gap between one-time contributions and Memberships, allowing creators to receive recurring support without offering perks or exclusive content. Supporters benefit, too, as they can consistently support their favorite creators without needing to revisit their Buy Me A Coffee page.
While Patreon is often the go-to for larger creators, Buy Me A Coffee offers an easy, low-fee way for creators to receive support for their work. I've personally found it valuable for getting support from my newsletter readers.
