REUTERS: Facebook Inc on Thursday told Reuters that Apple Inc rejected its attempt to tell users the iPhone maker would take a 30per cent cut of sales in a new online events feature, forcing Facebook to remove the message to get the tool to users.
The company said it had asked Apple to waive the 30per cent fee the iPhone maker charges for in-app purchases so Facebook could pass on all of the events revenue to business owners, but that Apple declined.Facebook had aimed to provide a notice of Apple's cut to users, according to mock-ups it released at the time, but Reuters found on Thursday that the promised message was not present on the new events feature.
