![]() We are not in principle against the idea of mod authors earning money through their work if it’s sanctioned and deemed legal for example via the game’s EULA or statements made by the game developers. Now, some of you might be asking “why?” and it’s the purpose of this news post to answer this. Why can’t I monetise and link my Patreon/other service and advertise it on my Nexus Mods page? However, in that case you must not link to it on Nexus Mods and neither may you link to a Discord server (or similar) where monetisation of mods is discussed or advertised. The gist of these guidelines is that if you want to link to your Patreon (or similar monthly or one-off donation service) then it must not advertise monetisation of modding or modding related content/services in any way.Īt the same time, let us be clear that we are not the “Patreon police” - if you want to go ahead and attempt to monetise modding on another service then that is up to you. While that - as far as we and our rules are concerned - is not a problem in and of itself, we do ask mod authors to adhere to our donation guidelines. Lately, we’ve been seeing more and more mod authors linking to such monthly subscription services on their mod pages. It’s because of this fact that, over the years, we’ve added a number of ways for users to say “thank you” by donating to their favourite mod author - be it through our mod rewards system, the donation options we provide (donation button on the mod page), or by allowing mod authors to link to a (monthly) subscription/donation service (such as Patreon or Ko-fi) on their mod pages and user profiles. As you know, many mod authors put countless hours into their mods, maintaining documentation for users, and supporting their mods. ![]() Without mod authors sharing their creations our modding community wouldn’t exist. ![]()
