Ali Alm@daringfireball @dmoren re: Apple not using Apple Pay instead of IAP for digital transactions. I don’t know for sure, but I’m assuming it’s to avoid payment processing fees from Visa/Mastercard etc for each transaction whereas with IAP, there is the benefit of adding money to your balance and using the balance for multiple transactions forcing you to use Visa/Mastercard only once in the chain of events.
Dan Moren@AliAlmo @daringfireball Apple does group transactions, which I assume minimizes its own processing fees (and those are included for devs within Apple's cut). But it would essentially let third party devs use their own payment processors...which is what they want?
