Maybe I'm missing something, but why can't Epic and other developers just raise the price of the games on the App Store by 30% and pass the cost along to customers. Customers on Apples Ecosystem will just need to pay a premium, just like they do for their devices.
"When you choose to use Epic direct payments, you save up to 20% as Epic passes along payment processing savings to you."
Apparently they already were, they just want to lower the price for consumers.
- Cu3PO42 6y agoThis is correct. Earlier today they pushed a Fortnite update adding the option to use "Epic direct payment" which charged 20% less. In response Apple removed Fortnite from the App Store, which then triggered this law suit to be filed.
