It's impossible to truly know their motives (although money is the most likely candidate). I usually judge these things on a personal/consumer level:
"Who is fighting for the consumer?" Epic. It doesn't matter their motives.
Apple is aggressively anticonsumer and it's time someone took them on. They keep handing out concessions for big players, while hurting newcomers. It's time for it to stop.

How else do you explain that console customers got the full 20% discount on "V-bucks" despite Sony/Microsoft still taking their 30% cut? Epic is basically selling V-bucks at a premium on iOS if you choose not to give Epic your credit card information. This is not a pro-consumer stance, it's a pro-Epic stance.
