Where Content Privée wins

Patreon rents you an audience page. Content Privée makes your own site the destination.

Zero platform fee

Patreon keeps up to 12% of every pledge, every month. With Content Privée the yearly license is the only thing you pay us, and 100% of member revenue lands with you.

Members on your domain

Your paywall, your checkout and your member accounts all live on your site, under your brand, on pages that belong to you alone.

Sell anything, not just tiers

A complete Drupal Commerce engine means one-off products, paid archives and promotions are built in alongside membership tiers.

Bring your members home

Your best work deserves better than a page on someone else's platform.
