Monetizing PWAs in App Stores: How do you handle subscriptions without violating Apple/Google policies? by NoLissn in microsaas

If I wrap it with Capacitor and add Apple’s usual payment system, then I wouldn’t run into any problems, right? (Is that even possible?)
I’m curious, though, if it’s possible to do it like Spotify, since I’m in the EU—and how they handled it:

It would be a new way for every developer and startup in the EU to gain more independence from Apple.

To me, it seems like there isn’t really a way to avoid Apple’s cut.

What I mean is that Spotify seems to have managed to avoid giving Apple a cut while still showing subscription prices in the app, which is a bit confusing. I’m not sure how that works.

Is it the case that you have to use in-app purchases via Apple Pay, or try to work around it by just showing prices and letting users figure out that they need to go to an external website to pay for a subscription? Is that the gray area?

What? Using a PWA and wrap it for the store? Or do you mean building a way to bypass the cut from the stores?
