Published Jul 4th, 2023 10:56AM EDTThree years after Epic Games sued Apple due to its App Store’s in-app payment policies, the Cupertino firm will ask the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn an order to let developers provide links and buttons that point to payment options outside Apple’s ecosystem., Apple said in a court filing it will “ask the justices to take up its appeal of a ruling on Friday by the San Francisco-based 9th U.S.
The Epic Games vs. Apple case is one of the weirdest between big techs. Epic’s CEO started a crusade to ensure developers don’t need to pay Apple’s 30% tax for purchases made in the App Store.
