Qahvejo: a Persian alternative to Patreon for monthly memberships
Patreon made monthly memberships for creators a familiar idea. Qahvejo makes the same idea simple for Persian-speaking audiences: tiers with your own prices and perks, next to one-off support and a shop, all on one Persian page.
Monthly memberships on Qahvejo
- Several tiers with your own price, description, image and perks
- Automatic monthly payments by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay
- Posts for all members or for one tier, emailed to members
- A Telegram group or Discord server link only members can see
- Members change tier or cancel on their own, without needing to ask you
The main differences
- Persian and right to left for supporters and creators
- One-off support with no account, next to memberships; not everyone wants to pay monthly
- A flat 5% fee with no paid plans; check other services' current pricing on their own sites
- Persian support answered by a real person
Qahvejo at a glance
- Cost: signing up and every feature are free. Qahvejo takes 5% of each payment and the card processing fee comes out of the same payment. There are no paid plans and no monthly subscription.
- How supporters pay: Visa, Mastercard and American Express cards, or wallets like Apple Pay and Google Pay, from most countries in the world. One-off support needs no account.
- Who can create a page: any creator aged 18 or over who lives in one of 43 supported countries (such as the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Germany, the Netherlands, Sweden, France, Australia and the UAE) and has a bank account in their own name.
- Payouts: automatic, daily, weekly or monthly, to your own bank account, in US dollars or your country's currency. The money goes straight to your own payment account; Qahvejo never holds it.
- Sanctions: residents of Iran, North Korea, Cuba, Syria and comprehensively sanctioned regions cannot create a page or receive money, and payments from inside Iran are not possible.
