December 16, 2025, 3:06 AM EST. A coalition of about 20 app developers and consumer groups is urging EU regulators to enforce the Digital Markets Act (DMA) against Apple's fee structure, which it says still disadvantages European developers versus U.S. peers after a U.S. court ruling. The European Commission previously fined Apple €500 million for DMA breaches related to steering users to external payment methods. In response, Apple updated terms that charge 13%-20% on App Store purchases and 5%-15% penalties on external transactions. The Coalition for Apps Fairness (CAF), including Deezer and Proton, argues the revised fees remain DMA violations and says U.S. developers benefit from more favorable terms post-court ruling. CAF calls for clarity, and even potential referral to the European Court of Justice to ensure 'free of charge means free of charge'.
