This is unfortunately still very true.... On transactions of $5, we’re paying anything between 8-15% This obviously doesn’t include the App Store/Play Store,

This is unfortunately still very true.... On transactions of $5, we’re paying anything between 8-15% This obviously doesn’t include the App Store/Play Store, where you could be paying anything between 30-45% (the standard fee is 30%, but if you’re an indie seller, then usually you wouldn’t have to charge VAT to EU residents (as long as you earn under a certain threshold), but Google/Apple will still charge this to customers (I assume this is because the sale is being made in their name and obviously they’re VAT registered).
