Summary

Apple has been restricted by a federal court from continuing to limit the ability of app developers to link to external payment methods, and from charging a 27% fee on those transactions. This ruling gives developers more freedom to offer lower prices for their products on the web, and allows them to build direct relationships with their users. As a result, developers can now create in-app steering that directs users to external payment pages, without the need for scare screens or redirects. The ruling also opens up new opportunities for developers to own the payment experience, pass savings on to users, and improve their checkout flows. This shift marks a significant change for native app developers, who can now choose between Apple's in-app payments and their own checkout experiences. The ruling also has implications for the web, as it makes mobile commerce more viable and allows developers to build fast, secure, and customizable checkout flows on the web.
