WWDC26: What’s new in Apple In-App Purchase | Apple
Apple's iOS 26.5 adds monthly billing with a 12-month commitment for annual subscriptions, with new StoreKit and server APIs.
“By providing customers with the option to pay upfront or monthly, you can reach a larger customer base and allow the customer to choose which billing plan best suits their needs.”
Apple introduced a new StoreKit billing plan letting customers pay monthly on annual subscriptions, plus updated offer code and App Store Connect submission APIs. This is a developer commerce and monetization update with no meaningful AI signal, so it is largely off-topic for an AI industry newsletter.
