Apple stated that it had reached a provisional settlement in a case brought against it by US developers. The agreement, which is still awaiting court approval, includes a few adjustments. The most significant is that developers will be permitted to communicate payment information outside of their iOS app or the App Store.
Key takeaways:
- Customers will now be able to learn about payment choices that aren’t subject to Apple commissions.
- Apple clarifies that developers can share information about payment methods outside of their iOS app using communications, such as emails.
- Apple will not charge developers a commission on purchases made outside of their app or the App Stores.
