Ask HN: Will Apple want a cut of this?
If I create an app that, for example, enables commerce between users, and my business model is to take a percentage of that revenue - will Apple want 30% of it? I don't know where/if there is a line between "subscription services" and anything else that makes money via an app.
- mcav 16y agoIs it like Paypal? Apple doesn't take a cut from sending payments via paypal's iOS app.
- JonathanWCurd 16y agoIf you use apple to process the transaction then I would say yes. If you do it some other way ie paypal then probably not. They would of course take 30% of the cost of the app if it wasn't free.
