A US federal appeals court has ruled against the 30% "Apple Tax" on in-app purchases, allowing developers to link to external payment systems.
The court found Apple's commission structure to be anticompetitive and not tied to the value of intellectual property.
The removal of the "Apple Tax" is particularly beneficial for crypto apps, enabling them to offer direct sales of digital assets without platform-imposed restrictions or fees.
Companies like Proton privacy and Dodo payments have announced plans to lower prices for users following Apple's waiver of the 30% cut.
