for collecting its App Store fee on a new feature aimed at helping small businesses, the iPhone maker is changing course.
But Apple's App Store policies also stipulate that apps offering goods and services experienced outside of the app — like a class, for example — can offer other alternative payment methods besides Apple's in-app purchase system. Now, however, Facebook says it will be permitted to process paid events using Facebook Pay rather than Apple's payments system, meaning businesses will be able to avoid the 30% commission through the end of 2020.
Facebook has also said it will not collect any fees from paid online events until at least August 2021. "The App Store provides a great business opportunity for all developers, who use it to reach half a billion visitors each week across 175 countries," the company said. "To ensure every developer can create and grow a successful business, Apple maintains a clear, consistent set of guidelines that apply equally to everyone."
Apple idea of helping... Tim Cook: ok ok you win we’ll suspend it... temporarily... at this FB event... everyone else: ? What event? Tim Cook: do this first ☝️
