This is the best summary I could come up with:
The details surfaced today after Google requested the court to keep the specifics of its deal with Spotify sealed earlier in the month.
This fee could be reduced to 11% due to programs like user choice billing, which allows developers to use their own or third-party payment solutions.
Earlier this month, The Verge reported that the search giant offered Netflix a deal in 2017 to just pay a 10% fee on Play Store for subscriptions.
Last month, the Mountain View-based company reached a settlement with the Match Group to let the dating app giant use third-party billing solutions on the Play Store.
Match Group’s rival Bumble was part of the user choice billing program pilot started in November 2022.
Epic, however, rejected Google’s offers to adopt user choice billing and went to trial earlier this month.
