Maybe difference is a Strike?

fee..
No, the fee is included in the $4.99. Primal openly charges a premium because of in-app purchase policies.
Yikes. I mean, they have to profit from something, but 17% is way too steep.
It’s not really a profit for Primal though. Apple charges all app makers a premium on in-app purchases, so they adjust their prices to make up the difference. It’s the same reason a subscription to X costs so much more in the X app compared to buying it directly on the X website.
Right, but Strike also pays these 30%?
While you buy from Strike in their app, you don’t buy from Strike using Apple in-app purchase. Hope that makes sense.
In other words, no. You only pay the fees that Strike directly controls. “In-app purchases” are an Apple feature and subject to Apple policies.
Yeah, it does. Not sure how do they evade it, it doesn't matter. If that's the case, I don't see the issue with Primal if they have to pay Apple and are transparent about it.
There’s no issue with it. I was just responding above to someone who asked about the cost difference between the two.
I see that now. I landed here from a different place. 😅

Yea he’s a big Primal hater. It’s comical.
