No, and it wasn’t meant to. It was meant to let companies keep more and give Apple less. That’s all.

In all likely hood things will get worse for consumers. I will definite not buy apps requiring custom payment platforms. Hopefully it’ll settle on stripe companies will offer multiple payment methods rather than trying to force their own.

I look forward to it making Apple lower its IAP fees for everyone. I’d still like to use their infrastructure, but without the enormous fees (15% for small devs is still huge).



Right. I bet this will be huge for companies like Stripe, Square, and Shopify.
