Developers pay for those when they pay for their dev license.

(if they don't, then what is it for?)

[FateOfNations → int_19h]

Previously the "developer licence" was $100/yr + an opaque revenue share that was bundled with distribution and payment processing services.

Based on their new alternative business terms, we can better describe what that bundled deal includes (which is still available):

• 15% tier (first $1mil/yr revenue and subscriptions after the first year):

- 10% distribution

- 2% developer platform

- 3% payment processing

• 30% tier (all other revenue):

- 17% distribution

- 10% developer platform

- 3% payment processing
