Spotify Submits iOS App Update Bypassing Apple's Payment System
2025-05-02
Spotify announced it submitted an iOS app update allowing US users to utilize non-Apple payment options. This follows the landmark Epic Games v. Apple ruling, forcing Apple to forgo its cut from non-Apple payment systems and prohibiting restrictions on informing users about alternative payment methods. The update offers clearer subscription pricing, easier plan upgrades and changes, and a wider range of payment choices. Spotify highlights improved user experience and increased opportunities for creators. Apple's approval remains pending. Patreon also plans to submit a similar update.
