APPLE ANNOUNCES CHANGES FOR APPS IN THE EUROPEAN UNION

Summary from the TLDR Founders newsletter

Apple set new EU App Store terms that take effect October 1, and agreements can be signed now. The standard in-app purchase commission moves to 26%, or 15% for qualifying developers. Alternative payment processing runs 20%, or 10% for eligible program members, and apps distributed outside the App Store pay a 5% Core Technology Commission on digital transactions and require notarization. For the first time, a single app can offer both Apple in-app purchase and alternative payments. Once an option is picked, it stays for 12 months.
