Let's say a subscription costs $10. Why not charge $14.29 through app store and $10 through online registration? With both logins acceptable in the login form... If Apple users want to pay more for the privilege of paying through Apple, why not let them?

I think they do, my kids play Roblox and Minecraft and buying in app is more expensive (probably to the tune of the Apple fees) than buying it outwith the App Store.

I don’t think app developers were allowed to show that it was x price in the app via Apple and x-fees via the developers own site.
