How long does the approval process take?
Accordingly to what can be heard, between few days and many many months.


I know patreon but I hear patreon bans adult game makers.
There's currently , more than 1,000 having started this year. So no, they don't bans adult game makers.
But it's true that they ban some kind of adult content: Incest, none consensual sex, bestiality and sex with underage characters.

I created my Subscribestar page two days ago, and they sent me an email yesterday, telling me that they didn't find any presence of my content online. I emailed them back and explained that I was waiting for the page to be approved and that I have the game ready and uploaded on various sites(Like mega, Pixeldrain etc). I also sent them links to the game.

Now, I'm unsure if I should post my game before the page gets confirmed. Many people here, through their experiences, have suggested that it's better to build your fanbase first, and then they will get you approved. Since they replied so quickly, I will wait for them for a day.

Patreon has a new age confirmation rule where you have to take a photo of yourself and a photo of your ID. I think that it's extremely ridiculous, so that's why I'm not going for Patreon.

I'm still waiting for their reply, but to tell you the truth I don't think that they will answer. I have sent another message just in case they didn't get the last one but no answer.

On Patreon you get your page confirmed just by setting up your page and not even uploading your game or having any other sites that feature your game. In SubscribeStar's case, from what I've heard they get you approved if you have some decent amount of audience. Personally I don't think that's the case because they messaged me just a day after setting up my page but I could be wrong.

All I can say to you is that I am in the same boat as you. I don't know a thing and can't say anything for certain. If the days go by and they still don't respond I guess I will upload my game while the page is under review. Maybe this will speed up the process. I don't know.

I heard from another thread that had a similar problem and they said that if a creator that has a Subscribe page approved sent a message to their email then this will speed up the process. But again, I could be wrong.

liberapay and fanbox are also an option, but I don't know if it has everything you all need :/. Since you need it asap, this is worth considering

Ko-fi and buymeacoffee are some temporary options that are unreliable because your page can be removed eventually, but it can last especially without a large audience. On Patreon you don't have to provide an ID when you start, it's only when they feel like checking your account so that's another temporary option. They all risk freezing your funds I am guessing.


Crypto is an option if you don't need a paywall,
but it's not very approachable for audiences. People won't donate to crypto as much. Cashapp is also an option without a paywall, should be more approachable than crypto and only requires a phone number. Despite prohibing nsfw, it's said online that they rarely enforce the rule.

This is everything I was able to find yesterday :/

They sent me an email asking for an ID photo and a photo of my face. Here's what basically happened.

I set up my Patreon page and I included in the 'About' page of the game some preview sex scenes. Before completing my page and sending it for review, they ask you to make my first post on my patreon page. So I did and posted basically the same thing I put on the 'About' page.

They sent me two messages to my email. The first was about that they reviewed my page and I needed to fix some issues. They informed me that I can't post images, videos, or audio of sexual content on the public tier, and I needed to remove them. They also mentioned that I needed to fix my tier deals because in one tier deal I had sneak peek images and they didn't want that either (I don't know why by the way, anything they asked me to do didn't make any sense and yes they asked me to remove nude images while my page was for people 18+). The second email was that they needed ID confirmation

For the age verification it is said in their FAQ on their website: :

But I've got an alternative idea. While re-reading their rules I noticed that they need age verification only when you post nudity and sexual acts on your page. So, if I remove all the nudity from my Patreon page they wouldn't need age verification anymore. So yeah I will try to make a Patreon page temporarily until SubscribeStar decides to give me a reply.

Thank you for your other Patreon and SubscribeStar alternatives by the way.

Thanks a lot for the info, wow that's a big piece of info I shouldn't miss.
I am not sure if your plan will work, since

Mastercard requires us to verify that Adult/18+ content creators whose pages include one or more works containing nudity or sexually explicit content are over the age of 18. These works can take any form, for instance: audio, text, and/or visual (including animations of human beings and/or depictions of human beings).
So the name of your patreon, or any references to your work may give it away? Any text or link. Things such as a description or tagline, and I had seen people on the forum talk about how they look for your activity outside your platform too. I think you should try this if it doesn't hurt, let me know how it goes

I find the things they asked of you odd.

This is just very confusing, because it makes sense that they don't want you to use a profile picture or cover that's too sexually explicit, and for the posts and content that's too sexually explicit to be hidden by a paywall (I guess it serves as an additional age and content warning barrier for visitors). but to not allow you to share sneak peaks in one of your tiers? If all goes well maybe you can ask Patreon support about that again, it's very odd and inconsistent. Do they really not want you to share anything 18+ on the patreon? I doubt that. I had seen people post straight up porn on paid tiers without a problem

I had seen people post sexy images on Patreon without an issue though. I guess there's a line, where you can post bikini pictures but you can't for example post people nude for free. Or an image that's too sexual. Basically, you can only post softcore porn for people on the free tier.

I will fix my page and post a simple dating sim, no nudity nor sexual content, something like a censored version while posting here. And I'm not the only one who will does this anyway, many creators on Patreon hide content like incest and blackmail, etc., and they mention it on their page If your game doesn't have any nudity or sexual content, you don't need age verification

I find the things they asked of you odd.
Everything they ask is odd and weird. All my life since the internet came I've heard people telling their kids not to post personal information online. Now they have the audacity to ask for not only my ID but also an extra selfie of my face. This information is stored in their data and they say 'Don't worry we will not use this information for any other reason it's just to confirm that you are of legal age.' We live in a world where everything is leaked. What tells me that I don't suddenly I see my face holding my ID on the internet? Maybe I'm paranoid about this but don't forget that the ones who confirm that you are of legal age are real people and people do dumb things.

And besides I'm sexy as fuck how do I know that the person looking at my photo won't save my image for a personal use:BootyTime::LOL:

If I can't post nude images for the public tier then why do they ask if you are above 18 years old to visit this page? I don't complain about that. I mean, it's dumb, but whatever.

but to not allow you to share sneak peaks in one of your tiers? If all goes well maybe you can ask Patreon support about that again, it's very odd and inconsistent. Do they really not want you to share anything 18+ on the patreon? I doubt that. I had seen people post straight up porn on paid tiers without a problem
Here's what they sent me word by word :
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

I had seen people post sexy images on Patreon without an issue though. I guess there's a line, where you can post bikini pictures but you can't for example post people nude for free. Or an image that's too sexual. Basically, you can only post softcore porn for people on the free tier.
I thought so too, but after they sent me this email I searched for other creators and noticed that many don't post nude or sexual images on the public tier. An example of this that comes to mind is EvaKiss. Go and see her Patreon page the most extreme she has is in her 'About' section with her main character topless and her nipples covered by hearts.

I am glad to see that text is okay, I think it should work out and you can even mention the uncensored version without a problem.

Can you show me some examples? I wonder if they had to share their IDs, you can assume they did if they have the content warning on their page. I want to know how exactly they made it work and have some examples saved in my documents

And besides I'm sexy as fuck how do I know that the person looking at my photo won't save my image for a personal use:BootyTime::LOL:
can you please send? It's also for... my documents ^^u definetely nothing else. I just think it's relevant for me to understand this situation

btw, if you look at this you can get rid of that windows pesky warning. It's pretty easy to use, and you can even change your windows edition.

I don't think you can.

I was meaning to ask that to AdultSpice since they are very privacy conscious, but I forgot as I typed my response. This is a big reason I don't use Patreon or why I would struggle to test these things.

You can lie based on what I read, but if they ask to verify your identity it's game over. You can't verify your identity since the name you gave them is different from what's on your ID. If you can't fake your name, the only way is to work around having to provide your name which is probably not possible.

When they review the page and if they approve it you will see the F95Zone thread and the Patreon page and see the differences.

I had this for such a long time that I don't even see it anymore. Thanks you are a lifesaver

I put my name on it. Don't worry about that since there are thousands with the same names and surnames.

The answer above will address your question. Giving my real name isn't the problem here there are many people who share the same names and surnames. What I have a problem with is that they ask you to show your face with your ID card. In the ID card it shows not only your real name but also your birthplace, your age, and other information

Click 'publish page' on patreon and wait for the review to complete and check your e-mail for their reply

Also, they can ask me anything at this point I am the one who needs them, not the opposite. That's why I'm doing this temporarily until my SubscribeStar page gets approved, if it gets approved and when.

That's understandable, and I agree. That's why I am not fully against sharing a real name, but it's not ideal and it feels very unnecessary for me. Unlike you guys, I have nothing to show for yet and no reason to compromise, so I'll create my patreon if enough people are interested to justify it. I'll start doing it for free and as a hobby and then charge or facilitate donations later basically.

Everything up until this point is unnecessary if you ask me.

If you're working on a project I don't see the harm of putting a Patreon page, you don't have to set many tiers and deals just make a 1$ deal or 2$ deal and leave it there for anyone who want's to support you. There are many creators on this site that have no patreon or subscribestar account and many users asking if they will make one
