☆ Apple faces $1 billion UK lawsuit by app developers over App Store fees
  + stars: | 2023-07-25 | by ( ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +1 min
More than 1,500 app developers in the United Kingdom brought a £785 million ($1 billion) class action lawsuit against Apple Tuesday over its App Store fees. Revenues at Apple (AAPL)’s services business, which includes the App Store, have grown rapidly in the last few years and now hover around $20 billion per quarter. However, the commissions of 15% to 30% that the company charges some app makers for using an in-app payment system have been criticized by app developers and targeted by antitrust regulators in several countries. Apple has previously said that 85% of developers on the App Store do not pay any commission and that it helps European developers access markets and customers in 175 countries around the world through the App Store. They harm app developers and also app buyers.”

BRUSSELS, July 25 (Reuters) - Apple (AAPL.O) on Tuesday found itself the target of a 785-million-pound ($1 billion) class action lawsuit brought by more than 1,500 apps developers in the UK over its App Store fees. Apple's services business, which includes the App Store, has seen revenues grow at a rapid pace in the last few years and now hovers around $20 billion per quarter. Apple has previously said that 85% of developers on the App Store do not pay any commission and that it helps European developers to access markets and customers in 175 countries around the world through the App Store. "Apple's charges to app developers are excessive, and only possible due to its monopoly on the distribution of apps onto iPhones and iPads," Ennis said in a statement. They harm app developers and also app buyers."
