Manufacturer platform Patron The recent updates have to modify your app to follow the guidelines of Apple after the update, allows users to shop through the web.
The company says its own web-based checkout option is now default for American fans, but it will have to update its app to open its app according to Apple’s instructions.
This makes more steps for fans that want to use Patron directly, but it still allows the company to go to pay 30% commission on in-app purchases.
Patreon updated its app immediately after a court verdict in the Apple-EPIC legal battle, which forced Apple to support external payments in apps published on its US app store, without commission. Last week, the PATREON iOS app (version 125.5.0) added an option, which allows users to pay through the web using various types of payment methods including credit cards, venom, papail and even Apple Pay.
These options appeared within an in-app browser, providing more spontaneous checkout experience for Patron users. Now, the checkout flow of the Patron opens in an external browser instead – a change is made based on the response of the Patron Apple.
In addition, the company says that the creators of the old billing model will also be able to accept payment through the IOS app of Patron.
Earlier, Apple did not support the billing model outside the subscription billing, and required exclusive use of its own in-app purchase system. Patron says that options for creators on heritage billing models are limited, such as the first month and per-building billing, patteron.
With updates, manufacturers will be able to use billing options on iOS that can have a significant impact on their lower line.
Within the week, Patron says that American fans will be able to buy membership from these creators from these creators in the iOS app at the prescribed price for their levels. (However, creators will still need to offer membership billing to sell new membership outside the US)
Currently, about 95% of active creators are already using membership billing, company notes, as it allows them to use other equipment such as free trials, discounts, gifting, tier reprising, autopylot, and more. But now it can address the remaining 5%needs.
Due to this new flexibility, the time limit to switch the membership of Patreon on the membership billing is no longer effective, it is no longer effective. Last August, Patron said that Apple had given the deadline to switch to all the creators in Apple’s iOS IPP procurement system by November 2025 or the risk removal from the app store.
“We are in close interaction with Apple and advocating a more flexible approach – one that gives more time and prefer the creators,” Patron shared in a blog post. “As a result of the change in the end of the recent ruling and Apple, the November 2025 deadline is no longer effective, and as of today, no new deadline has been set. It means, so far, we can give more time and flexibility to the creators when and how they can switch, whereas we have worked to work together, said” said the first place. “
