What's the difference between a paid and a free account?

Whether your account is paid or free depends on one thing: whether you have a subscription plan.

Paid account (you have a subscription plan)

Fans pay a recurring subscription to see your Subscribers posts. You can still publish Public posts that everyone can see, and Premium posts that fans pay to unlock.

Free account (no subscription plan)

Fans follow you for free. You can't publish Subscribers posts until you add a plan, so you post Public and Premium posts instead. You can still earn from Premium posts, locked messages, tips, paid livestreams and video calls.

Switch between them

  • To go paid: open Manage Subscription Plans and select Add Subscription Plan. If you choose the Subscribers post type without a plan, PlayHouse asks if you want to create one.
  • To go free: remove your subscription plans from the same page.

Everything else works the same way for both.
