Apple lets app developers use 3rd-party payment systems in S.Korea

San Francisco: Tech giant Apple on Thursday said that the developers in South Korea can now use a third-party payment system, with certain riders.

To comply with the new South Korean law, developers can use the ‘StoreKit External Purchase Entitlement’.

“This entitlement allows apps distributed on the App Store solely in South Korea the ability to provide an alternative in-app payment processing option,” the company said in a developer update.
