Apple informed the participants of the iTunes partner program about the reduction of the commission amount from applications and content inside them to 2.5%.
Members of the iTunes partner program can post links to applications in the App Store on their resources. Previously, Apple paid 7% of the cost of the application for each purchase made after clicking on such a link.
The change will affect only the programs and the content inside them. 7% commission on music, videos, books and other iTunes content will not change.
Application developers will continue to receive their 70% profit from each application sold.
With this decision, Apple will equalize the rest of the world with Japan, where the commission rate for partners is already 2.5%.
The change will come into force on May 1 of this year.
