Apple Court Ruling: iOS Checkout Changes
Added 2025-05-16 04:44:00 +0000 UTCThanks to a recent U.S. court ruling, Apple must now allow apps to offer U.S. based users checkout options outside of Apple's in-app purchase system (which includes the 30% Apple fee)—something that was previously prohibited under Apple's App Store requirements.

This means real improvements for you:
Patreon's checkout option—which avoids Apple's 30% fee—is now the default checkout option for U.S. based fans making membership purchases in the iOS app.
U.S. based fans now see the price the creator sets without Apple's fee added in, just like they would on web or Android.
