For those of you who have not yet taken note of this new community space, Patreon is a platform that allows our readers to support our media via monthly subscriptions, without commitment. In return, we are committed to specific advantages such as the removal of advertisements on our site, or the possibility of interacting with our teams live!
If you want to support other Futura projects (editorials, audio, video) but you are not yet convinced, here are some advantages to find on our Patreon account.
5 reasons to follow Futura on Patreon
1. Browse Futura without ads
This is an advantage that can be found in our subscription formula ” Futura ad-free “. We have developed a module that allows you to read your favorite content, without displaying advertisements. Another relationship to the site and a better promotion of our content.
2. Develop a more authentic relationship with our teams
On Patreon, the teams reveal themselves and open up about their personal stories. In turn, we share projects with you or give you the opportunity to vote to help us choose the next topics, podcasts, etc. We do it on this space, because we know that we are in “small committee”, and that it is a place of speech and privileged exchange, contrary to the site where it is more difficult to install this form of proximity.
Here is the kind of content you can find on our Patreon account: live exchanges with the editorial teams, and many other surprises!
3. Support independent media
For Futura, the same passion for disseminating scientific knowledge remains intact as on the first day. During all these years, Futura has continued to develop, diversifying its formats, broadening its themes and its audience, with ever more content at the forefront of current affairs, led by a dynamic team attentive to reader concerns.
Media 100% independent since its birth (the 1er July 2001), Futura believes more than ever in these times of growing distrust of science, and fake news, in its primary ambition of quality, rigorous and objective information (and popularisation). We wish to remain independent in order to continue to disclose all these values and cultivate the curiosity, critical spirit and wonderment of our readers. Your support on Patreon therefore helps us finance the teams and the resulting projects.
4. Access to exclusive content
Beyond the more personalized dialogue we have on Patreon, this space is also the place where we share new content, which are not published anywhere else, or which are announced before everyone else. And this is only the beginning, because the more the weeks pass, the more our editorial production increases! Right now, for example, you can have access to anecdotes and content about our first paper edition: the Mag Futura !
5. Total autonomy and freedom over your subscriptions
We are here on a practical point of view, but Patreon being an external platform, you can manage your subscriptions as you see fit, if you want to pause your subscriptions, or unsubscribe, it’s entirely possible and you can easily do it via your account.
Thank you for your support and see you soon in our member area! By helping us, you concretely create favorable conditions for increasingly serious, free and precise work. So thank you very much.
