Is Apple charging publishers of free applications?

Let’s start with this statement: “We have published couple of free applications on the App Store and everything goes fine”. Now when approaching one customer, he told us that he heard that even we publish a free application, Apple can charge you as publisher. Well, we said, we never heard about that and it is not true and it never happens to us - but he insisted on this – therefore the questions is: “Is it possible that Apple is charging publishers of free applications under some circumstances (except of the annual fee for developer.apple.com)? ”

Thanks

Solution

  • I dont know where your client did read it, but apart from the anual fee, there's no other tax or price.

    Maybe your client is confused with the developer fee?
