The new fee applies across “any platform.”

    Wait, am I understanding this right that Amazon for example would need to give Apple a 20% cut for anything (digital) a customer buys through Amazon for a year? Same with Valve, etc?

      If the purchase is available though any other service and the developer includes the external link in the app, then yes. It doesn’t even matter if the external links are used to make the purchase, just for the privilege the fee will be applied. It won’t apply to generic purchases that Apple in-app doesn’t offer.
