🌸 Sweet’s Cosplay of the Month and Patreon Information

Hello! Thank you so much for your interest in my Patreon. ♡

Currently, my main focus is producing the Cosplay of the Month content. Between shooting the sets and managing the logistics for all the personalized rewards, these monthly rewards take up a lot of my time.

Because I am prioritizing these high-effort rewards for you, there is currently a drought of general timeline content. To make up for the lack of regular posting, I have set an automatic Welcome Discount for the $6, $12, and $25 tiers. Please enjoy this discount while I focus on creating these special rewards! I plan on resuming regular content soon and will be working on incorporating it when my workload decreases.

Note: All tiers stack (including previous rewards) and are priced accordingly. Things are prone to change as I’ve only been on Patreon for less than a year, but I appreciate you growing with me!

🏆 What is Cosplay of the Month?

Cosplay of the Month is a featured cosplay each month. Generally, there will be a vote between two characters to choose from. The winner becomes the Cosplay of the Month and gets special exclusive rewards (as you'll see below). For now, the loser will receive a photoset that stays up forever. The winner's content will be exclusive for that month only – sent personally via DM/email and never available again (at least for now). Without delays, there will usually be a poll around the middle of the month, followed by a teaser image of the perks. The due date is generally the last day of the month, with rewards starting to be delivered in the first week of the following month.

For delivery, you'll receive a Google Forms link (specific to your tier or tiers) after the due date passes. This form is for your preferred name (for personalization), any special requests, or shipping address (for physical rewards). Rewards are delivered personally by me via DM.

If you don't want certain rewards, simply skip filling out the corresponding form! Please note: Filling out the form(s) is required to receive your rewards – it's the most efficient way for me to deliver them to everyone. If you're in a higher tier, you'll receive multiple forms (one for each reward type, including lower-tier ones), so please fill out all of them.

📝 TL;DR: How it works

🍭 Tier Breakdown

✨ $25 Tier

Starting in December, I’ll have pre-orders open for a physical Polaroid of the "Cosplay of the Month" on my Ko-fi shop. $25+ members receive a 45% off discount code (bringing the $40 price down for you!).

Please note: This Ko-fi image is not unique by default—it is the same standard image everyone else gets, including basic personalization (name/doodles). However, if you purchase more than one, you will receive unique images for the extras!

💡 For $60+ Tier Members: Your tier already includes a unique 1/1 Polaroid. This Ko-fi listing is a separate item. If you want additional unique Polaroids beyond what is in your tier, you can use your discount code to buy them through this shop listing! They will be shipped together during the delivery period.

✨ $40 Tier

Bare minimum entry to Cosplay of the Month! You can vote between characters to influence the winner. After the due date passes, you'll receive a Google Forms link from me to fill out your information (preferred name, any special requests/notes). You'll get a single exclusive digital personalized image with your name and any other notes you request. This is delivered personally via a Google Drive link in a message. There is no option for it without text – the $80 tier includes the bare image.

✨ $60 Tier

This is the exclusive physical Polaroid tier! It can be shipped anywhere in a plain envelope without tracking. After the due date passes, you'll receive a Google Forms link to fill out your information and address. This includes a note and a unique 1/1 Polaroid that can be personalized, plus extra stickers if they're in stock.

✨ $80 Tier

This is the photoset tier! Please make sure your email is up to date, as these are delivered via email. They'll be sent around the due date (I'll clarify the exact timing so you can check your spam folder if needed).

This content is exclusive and will never be available again – it's a big step up from my general posts. You'll also receive a 50% off discount code for my Patreon shop (this is subject to change if shop prices increase overall, but anyone who receives the current code will keep that rate forever). A fresh code will be delivered every month via a mass message.

✨ $105 Tier

This is generally the support tier! As thanks for your support, you'll receive a custom fan sign photo in the Cosplay of the Month with your name or anything else requested. You can request a certain pose, etc. – just keep it within common sense! These might take a bit longer than other rewards since they're not pre-prepared photos; I need your request to create them. They'll generally be done after I deliver the main rewards. I'll send a Google Forms link when the due date arrives for you to fill out your request.

🍭 Tier Quick-Guide

I’m so excited to have you here! If you have any questions about your rewards or tiers, feel free to shoot me a DM. Thank you for making this possible! 🍭✨

Please remember that I manage all logistics and delivery personally, so your communication and filled-out forms are what keep things running smoothly!

Hey, thanks so much for sharign how you feel , i really hear the frustration about the timing, and I’m genuinely sorry it’s disappointing. Just to make sure we’re on the same page...: 1. The $80 tier stacks all* lower rewards (digital signed photo + physical Polaroid + full timeline archive access + the 50% off discount + the 25% off code for Polaroids on my Ko-fi shop) + the exclusive photoset. It’s not just an “$80 photoset”, the value comes from everything included. 2. I’ve been very clear (in the post you commented on + recent announcements) that my current focus is 100% on delivering consistent, high-quality Cosplay of the Month rewards (which I’ve done reliably for 4–5 months now). That’s why I’ve discounted the general timeline posts, I know I’m not as active with them anymore. 3. The monthly cutoff is intentional to keep CotM exclusive — it’s not arbitrary. It’s the core of what makes the higher tiers feel like a special VIP experience for the dozens of people already in them. It’s not about “trusting” I won’t revise tiers, I’ve only **added** new higher tiers/rewards over time (never taken anything away or changed existing ones). If anything, people have been excited about the additions, one person even joked, “Oh no, I don’t know if my wallet can handle it if Sweets adds another reward!” 😅 4. I’ve been really happy to see the new $80 tier (introduced in November/January) doing well and becoming one of my strongest support levels — so I guess the community really likes the direction! So i guess if you view it as just a 'photoset' instead of all of the previous benefits mentioned + the VIP personal pampering aspect, it can be hard to see the full value of it. I’ve been trying hard to make things more inclusive for lower tiers (suggestions seriously help), but it’s tricky because the whole point of Cosplay of the Month is that it’s meant to be exclusive and super personal, like your own little monthly pampering with rewards no one else gets. I completely understand that $80 is a significant amount of money, and I never want anyone to feel like they’re throwing it away. If the timing or exclusivity doesn’t line up for you right now, that’s 100% okay , no hard feelings at all. If you ever change your mind and want to join for January (or later), the door is always open. Thank you again for being honest

Do you really need the timer for the $80 photosets? I want to rejoin but unless I'm mistaken that would mean I have access to basically nothing until next month. For $80 I kind of feel like I shouldn't have to worry about that. I know you haven't worked traditional jobs much so maybe it doesn't register exactly how much 80 bucks per month really is, but it's a lot of money and not something most people can afford to just throw at people on the internet for no real immediate benefit because the person they want to support decided that if you don't happen to try to rejoin before an arbitrary date, well too bad, we just have to give you the money and trust that by next month you won't have revised your tiers and content again. I don't mean to be rude, but its just disappointing. I'm like 4 days late, really don't want to just give you $80 for something like 3 or 4 weeks away with seemingly no other content on a regular basis. If I'm misunderstanding something please let me know.
