30% of subscriptions/coin purchases is too much. Possibly warranted for actual app sales due to the review process, but after the app is sold 30% of every subsequent payment is a protection racket.

10% is a normal'ish partner cut for providing a platform for others to transact on (ignoring money transfers services).

30% is laughable, long term.

Not even a "one more thing" cut to 29%, lol, ever!
