This change means Apple will take a 30% commission on subscriptions (dropping to 15% after one year), treating creator payments as digital goods. Patreon creators can either raise prices in the iOS app to offset the fee or absorb the cost themselves. Users can avoid the commission by subscribing through Patreon's website instead of the iOS app. Currently, 96% of Patreon creators have already migrated from the legacy billing system. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
