> Apple took issue with Insight Timer accepting tips for live events and meditations, deciding that this money was for digital content. Plowman did not agree with Apple's assessment, and spent months negotiating. Apple did agree to allow tip links on teacher profile pages that are not subject to a 30 percent fee, but donations from live events and meditations are not considered tips. Apple's reasoning is that a one-to-one donation is a monetary gift, but a workshop or class with at least two people is digital content that's subject to a commission.
- threeseed 3y agoThe app developer is being pretty tricky here. It is unquestionably digital content when it's a teacher giving a class and the amount of tipping is so high that it is their primary compensation model.
- halostatue 3y agoThis is a much better, more nuanced link than the original, which is just repeating the original questionable claims of Insight Timer.
