Rakuten filed an antitrust complaint against Apple in the EU in March, the Financial Times reports.
Apple charges a 30% levy on in-app purchases, something Rakuten says unfairly raises prices on Kobo compared to Apple's e-book service. Apple is facing a new accusation of abusing its monopoly. Any app on the App Store which uses in-app payments has to use Apple's payment system, which charges up to a 30% levy on each purchase. For Kobo, this means if it wanted to sell books through its free app it would have to pay a 30% commission on every book sold.
Apple also has an ebook service called Apple Books. Rakuten's claim is that it's anti-competitive for Apple to charge a tax on Kobo, a competitor to Apple Books. Neither Apple nor Kobo were immediately available for comment when contacted by Business Insider.
