Developers can now use third-party payment systems, link to their own sites, or design custom payment screens. Fees are splitting into a core service charge plus separate processing costs, with rates varying based on whether users installed before or after the new rules. The base fee is 10% on the first $1M, then jumps to 20% or 25% depending on install age and payment method. Special programs like “Games Level Up” and “Apps Experience” could slash those rates to 15% for qualifying apps — launching September 30, 2026, in Australia and later globally. Rollout is phased: EEA/UK/US first, then Australia, Japan, South Korea, and finally the rest of the world by late 2027. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
