-
  • Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) has new App Store policy updates that move any voluntary in-app tipping to the category of formal in-app purchase and Apple can take its 30% cut.
  • Virtual currency tipping has emerged as a popular way for app developers to make money without turning to ad revenue. But tipping, in the past, was unregulated and more loosely defined.
  • Apple’s decision legitimizes tipping and shows that the company is trying to make monetization easier on both customers and app developers.
  • At WWDC, Apple revealed new blog style description pages that also allow for in-app purchase listings, so the player doesn’t have to launch the app to find the virtual goodies.
