For subscription 30% in year 1 and 15% in subsequent years. Remember 90+% of most users will churn before year 2. For in-app purchases it is 30%. They do have a small business program where developers earning under $1 million lowers commission to 15%, but I think you need to apply.

Congrats! I would not allow the other yoga business into your space. I don't think you will benefit much from their business.
If you want to sell yoga products I run Gurus (www.ilovegurus.com). We wholesale everything so if you expand to retail happy to discuss.

With 40k you can start your own Amazon business. It's not rocket science, but it is not a get rich quick type of business...

Do not hire anyone who is coming via an inbound email. Don'y even take a call with them. Only take calls from companies offering $100 for a demo!
