To give some reference, using stripe you pay 2-3% for credit card payments and PayPal charges you ~5% of the transaction amount. Apple store and Steam take 30%.

- norman784 2y agoI think comparing Steam and to some extend Apple with payment methods, they are stores and it cost money to store apps and games and for this one I'm not 100% sure, but I read a while ago that they also pay taxes for you in the country you sell, while pure payment processing services are just a proxy to move money from one account to another. You could argue that 30% is high for that, but we aren't discussing it here.
