Reportedly, Microsoft (MSFT) allows Epic Games Inc, Amazon.com Inc (AMZN), and other firms to integrate their app stores into the technology giant’s marketplace, giving more options to third-party developers. The company said it would not take a cut from app developers’ revenue when the apps manage their own in-app payment systems.
The move comes as developers have long criticized Apple’s commissions of between 15% and 30% on many App Store purchases, which some developers view as an opaque and unpredictable app-vetting process.
Redmond, Washington-based American multinational technology company Microsoft (MSFT) develops, manufactures, licenses, supports and sells computer software, consumer electronics, personal computers, and related services.
