The Coalition for App Fairness and other European developer groups state that Apple’s revised EU App Store terms still violate the EU Digital Markets Act (DMA), particularly objecting to fees charged on steering users to alternative payments and a new Core Technology Commission fee. They call on the European Commission to clarify its enforcement stance following Apple’s perceived non-compliance despite a prior €500m fine.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Consumer.

◆ The Wire takeaway

You face continued uncertainty in EU app retailing as Apple’s fees challenge regulators’ enforcement of the DMA. Locking down clear rules this week could open doors to novel payment options or shut them again.
