More than 1,500 UK apps developers sue Apple over commission fees
on Tuesday found itself the target of a 785-million-pound class action lawsuit brought by more than 1,500 apps developers in the U.K. over its App Store fees.
However, the commissions of 15% to 30% that the company charges some app makers for use of an in-app payment system has been criticised by apps developers and targeted by antitrust regulators in several countries. The U.K. lawsuit at the Competition Appeal Tribunal is being brought by Sean Ennis, a professor at the Centre for Competition Policy at the University of East Anglia and a former economist at the OECD, on behalf of 1,566 app developers.“Apple’s charges to app developers are excessive, and only possible due to its monopoly on the distribution of apps onto iPhones and iPads,” Ennis said in a statement.
