中文(ZH) 英国拟强制苹果谷歌放开支付限制，降低开发者费用

UK proposes forcing Apple and Google to allow alternative payments

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

The UK's Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) is proposing new regulations that would compel Apple and Google to allow app developers to direct users to alternative payment methods outside of their respective app stores. This initiative aims to reduce developer fees and foster greater market competition. The CMA's proposed measures would lift current restrictions that prevent developers from communicating these external payment options to their users. AI

IMPACT This policy change could significantly impact the revenue models of app stores and the cost structures for app developers, potentially influencing how AI-powered apps are priced and distributed.

    UK plans to force Apple and Google to lift payment restrictions, reduce developer fees

    英国竞争与市场管理局周二启动一项公开咨询，提议允许应用开发者引导用户使用苹果和谷歌应用商店之外的支付渠道，以降低费用、促进市场竞争。竞争与市场管理局表示，苹果目前在英国完全禁止开发者引导用户绕开其支付系统，谷歌此前也对此设有一定限制。拟议措施将取消这些限制，让开发者能够直接与用户沟通外部支付方式。（新浪财经）
