Apple faces ‘strong action’ if App Store changes fall short, EU’s Breton says
The EXISTING fees have changed, there is no 30% fee. It’s 17% now.
If you don’t trust me, use the Apple fee fee calculator with different terms: https://developer.apple.com/support/fee-calculator-for-apps-in-the-eu/
For 10 million in sales, you need to pay 250k with the old terms and 166k with the new ones if you use apple pay and 141k if you use an alternative in app method.
Read it again:
The new business terms for iOS apps in the EU have three elements: Reduced commission — iOS apps on the App Store will pay a reduced commission of either 10 percent (for the vast majority of developers, and subscriptions following their first year) or 17 percent on transactions for digital goods and services.

There is NO 30% fee anymore, it is going to be 10% for most, 17% for some
Also there is a fee waiver for certain devs, like NPOs and educational orgs. Overall there is a TON of great stuff coming to EU and absolutely no negatives.
Zero negatives, NOTHING is getting worse, and a lot is getting much much better.
