Apple is engaged in eleventh-hour negotiations with European Union regulators in an effort to delay or avoid a new wave of financial penalties stemming from noncompliance with the bloc’s Digital Markets Act (DMA), the Financial Times reports.
The company is under pressure to make significant changes to its App Store policies in the European Union after being fined €500 million earlier this year for preventing developers from directing users to alternative purchasing options outside of Apple’s in-app payment system. That practice, referred to by regulators as ”anti-steering,” is explicitly prohibited under the DMA, which came into effect for designated gatekeepers, including Apple, in March 2024.
