The benefits of crowdfunding


Preferred by readers
​Our market research has found that more readers are willing to make voluntary monthly payments, than pay for content locked behind paywalls. (Our survey findings can be viewed here). 

Easy to adopt
Crowdfunding is a complementary revenue model that co-exists with your existing income streams. You don't need to put up content barriers, allowing you to maximise audience growth. You're also welcome to keep advertising if this is an important revenue stream for your site. 

Highly adaptable
As a publisher, you have full freedom to experiment with the membership strategy for your crowdfunding campaign. You can run an altruistic membership model, or can incentivise your readers with rewards such as exclusive content and events.

How it works


1) Create an account
A PressPatron account allows publishers to create a funding campaign for their website, with customised design and messaging. 

2) Embed PressPatron
Once an account is activated, publishers can embed the PressPatron platform within their website by adding a snippet of code. We also host a campaign page on the PressPatron website.

3) Collect contributions
Publishers place PressPatron's payment button within their website. Once clicked, supporters can make a contribution without leaving the publisher’s website.
