This is really big news. Waiting to see some more details. Apparently nothing changes if you decide to take in-app payments but you will be able to take payments outside App Store and avoid the 30% cut Apple takes.
From what I gather, apps are still required to accept Apple Pay if they offer any type of in-app purchase.
And apps that do not work without an outside-app purchase are still rejected as well.
That's not new.
Apps such as Netflix & Spotify?
I wonder if some PR/research team at Apple woke up one day and finally realize the outcry re scan of iPhone in iOS 15 may actually hurt the brand longterm.
