Not sure about Apple, but I know Google has special treatments for formally registered 501(c)(3) orgs and they are allowed to seek donation directly without going through Google Play's commission.
Update: Apple Pay appears to have similar policies [0].

- rajveermalviya 6y agoSame for Signal? They have a donate button in android app.
- vaduz 6y agoSignal is actually registered as a non-profit (which means accounting for where the money is going as well), so iOS version is perfectly fine to have "Donate to Signal" link opening in Safari.
- m-p-3 6y agoWhat if the non-profit is located outside of the US (and is considered a non-profit in its local jurisdiction)? Do they need to apply for a 501(c)(3), that is if they even can?
- segfaultbuserr 6y ago"proof of registration with the relevant country's regulatory bodies and authorities" also counts. You can read that HN discussion about donations in FOSS apps in my original comment, link [0].
