Support Us

Reloader is a new outlet from a group of writers with more than a decade of experience covering video games and tech. No longer bound by the chains of the past, we’re expanding our coverage to include music, board games, film & TV, and pop culture, and we’re bloody excited about it.

But running a site is hard work and expensive, which is why we surrender our souls to the gods to reap some monetary reward from ads to cover the costs. We know they’re an eyesore and that people hate them, which is why we wanted to give readers the chance to support the site and remove ads in one fell payment (per month or year). We’re calling this…*drum roll*…a Reloader Membership. 10 years of creative writing and that’s the best we could come up with.

Reloader Membership

What perks does this membership provide and how much will it set me back? Both great questions.

Look, we don’t want to overpromise and underdeliver, which is why right now the membership will simply remove ads for you. We are looking at other cool things we can do, but we want to make sure we can hold up our end of the bargain. What we can promise is that you will also get our eternal love and appreciation (until your subscription runs out anyway).

A monthly subscription will cost $5, and a yearly subscription will be $50 (that’s two months free!).

To celebrate the launch of Reloader and to try and get as many of you to subscribe as possible, we’re offering a two-year membership for $75 (that’s the second year half price!). Talk about value. This offer will be valid until October 1, 2026.

If signing up as a Reloader Member is something you’d be keen to do, you can purchase a membership here.

How Can I support Without Giving You money?

Honestly, just being here reading our content and bringing good vibes is awesome. We truly appreciate all of the support we get. If any of our content really does it for you, please share it around – tell your parents, tell the barista at your go-to cafe, even tell the neighbour you probably dislike. Any publicity is good publicity, apparently. We know you’re like the rest of us and love a cheeky doom scroll, so engage with us on social media, and if you don’t follow us, please do.

Oh, and turn off your ad blocker if you’ve got one. Please :)

Just a quick shoutout to the following legends for letting us use their imagery in our ads
