Apple plans to reduce its own share of app sales in the App Store
The Apple Corporation is considering the possibility of reducing the fee it charges for any sale in the App Store mobile app store.
According to the Financial Times, Apple will adjust its share in relation to news applications, as well as subscription music and video services. How exactly is not reported.
It is also unclear whether developers of other types of applications should hope for similar concessions.
The Verge explains Apple’s desire to implement a local revolution in revenue distribution (recall, 30% is the current industry standard) by the fact that it is significantly cheaper for users to pay for a number of subscription services through official websites, rather than through the App Store. Reducing the share may help to smooth out the difference.
