NEW YORK (US) – Facebook said on Thursday that Apple Inc rejected its bid to inform users that the iPhone maker would take a 30% sales cut in a new online events feature. This forced Facebook to remove the message to get the tool to users.
According to the social media firm, the iPhone maker cited an App Store rule that prevents developers from showing “irrelevant” information to users.
“Now more than ever, we should have the option to help people understand where money they intend for small businesses actually goes. Unfortunately Apple rejected our transparency notice around their 30% tax but we are still working to make that information available inside the app experience,” Facebook said in a statement.
