How to Connect Your Patreon to ShrinkingMen.com (Step-by-Step Guide for Patrons)

If you support ShrinkingMen on Patreon, everything your tier includes now lives right here on shrinkingmen.com: the weekly patrons-only stories, the monthly Shrink Packs, the full membership, the games, free Resonance tracks and trading card points.

There's just one thing to do first: connect your Patreon to a free ShrinkingMen account. It takes about a minute, you only ever do it once, and from then on your perks follow your pledge automatically.

Here's exactly how.

Step 1: Open your account page

Go to shrinkingmen.com/account. If you're new here, tap Create an account. If you already have an account (from the shop or the games), just sign in and skip to step 4.

Step 1: the ShrinkingMen account page, with the Create an account tab highlighted

Step 2: Make your free account

Type your email address and choose a password (8 characters or more). It's simplest to use the same email as your Patreon, but any email works. Tick the box to confirm you're 18 or over, then tap Create my account.

Step 2: the Create an account form, with the email box and the Create my account button highlighted

Step 3: Confirm your email

We send you an email called Confirm your email for ShrinkingMen, from store@shrinkingmen.com. Open it and tap Confirm my email: you'll be signed in straight away. Can't see it after a minute or two? Check your spam or promotions folder, or tap send it again on the account page. The link works for 48 hours.

Step 3: the Confirm your email message, with the Confirm my email button highlighted

Step 4: Tap Connect Patreon

On your account page, find the box called Patreon patron? and tap Connect Patreon.

Step 4: the Patreon patron? box on the account page, with the Connect Patreon button highlighted

Step 5: Tap Allow on Patreon

Patreon opens and asks whether ShrinkingMen can see your membership. Check it's your Patreon account, then tap Allow. If you're not signed in to Patreon on this device, sign in there first (with your own Patreon password: we never see it).

Step 5: tap Allow when Patreon asks if ShrinkingMen can see your membership

Step 6: Your perks are switched on

You come straight back to your account page with a message saying your Patreon is connected and your tier's perks are unlocked. That's it! If you change tier on Patreon, your perks change with it by themselves.

Step 7: Enjoy your perks

Patrons-only stories and posts are in the Patreon VIP Lounge, with a new story every week.
Shrink Packs, the stories, audio, comics and games are in your library.
New patron posts pop up under the bell at the top of every page, and we email you when one goes live.

If something doesn't work

"Connected, but we couldn't find a paid ShrinkingMen tier": if you've only just joined or changed tier, give it a minute and reload your account page. Make sure you pressed Allow on the Patreon account that pays for your tier.
"That Patreon account is already connected to a different ShrinkingMen account": you've probably made two accounts. Sign in to the other one, or email store@shrinkingmen.com and we'll move it for you.
Patreon was cancelled or took too long: just press Connect Patreon again.
Anything else: message us on Patreon or email store@shrinkingmen.com, and we'll sort it out.
