Apple's New Developer License: Collecting Unpaid Funds
Update: 2025-12-19
Description
Apples updated developer license agreement allows the company to collect unpaid funds from app developers by deducting commissions or fees directly from in-app purchases. This change primarily affects developers in regions with external payment options, like Europe and the U.S. Apple can now recover what it believes is owed, especially if developers underreport earnings. This move could significantly impact developers in markets like the EU, U.S., and Japan, where varying fees and commissions apply based on local regulations. Apple can offset or recoup funds collected from end-users through in-app purchases, digital goods, or app fees at any time, potentially leading to unexpected deductions for developers.
