Apple announced changes to the App Store, like letting developers advertise flexibly outside payment methods. The agreement will include a $100 million value of payments to app makers starting from $250 to $30,000 per developer, according to law firm Hagens Berman, which presents a prosecutor who claimed Apple overcharged them fees needed for distributing their programs through the iOS App Store.

The new advertising policy will make it easier for developers to promote other pricing plans and ways to pay without Apple cutting a tax. The new policy assures Apple can’t ban developers from these communications. However, it won’t let developers advertise outside pricing or payment methods within apps. The company is “clarifying that developers can use communications, such as email, to share information about payment methods outside of their iOS app,” Apple said in a statement.
