A 27% cut will make a 3rd party payment service a non starter for all but the biggest app.
For small players a 3% savings isn't worth the administrative overhead of paying apple separately.
Apple is begging for another lawsuit over this.
- yakz 3y agoIs there a 3% savings there or is that just covering the typical fee from the payment processor?

- sircastor 3y agoRemember that Apple charges 15% for everyone making less than 1M in revenue. And the range applied for external processing is going largely correlate with Apples offerings. Apple doesn’t see their cut as “payment processing and hosting”. They see it as the cost of selling for their platform.
