Bring your Patreon members with you

Let existing patrons access your site without asking them to subscribe twice.

Give existing patrons access

Connecting Patreon lets you map your Patreon tiers to Drate memberships. Patrons can then use their existing Patreon membership to access the corresponding benefits on your site.

Start from the Patreon integration in your dashboard, connect your account and review the tier mapping. Check that each tier grants the benefits you intend.

Keep billing clear

Connecting Patreon does not move a patron’s recurring payment to Stripe. You can offer direct Stripe memberships alongside Patreon; make it clear which option a member is choosing so they do not subscribe twice.

If a patron cannot get in

Ask them to check that they connected the Patreon account that holds their active membership. Review your tier mapping before asking them to make another purchase.

Contact Drate support if the account and tier look correct but access is still missing.
