Interesting. Doesn't Apple disallow porn?

Also Patreon does gate content behind payment, with different tiers even.

And I've seen Patreons sell one-time services/products for a fee, like this random Patreon: https://i.imgur.com/qKpOwpq.png

All these subtle differentiations to justify one service paying 30% while Patreon doesn't seem arbitrary to say the least. It makes no sense.

I agree with your point about the differentiation being vague and the fact that apple should be more clear.

Also apple does disallow porn. And fanhouse also says no porn but every fanhouse creator’s marketing is around suggestive pics. They get around it by calling it “lewd” instead of nude and the app literally has a pay to view picture functionality which some creators use for NSFW stuff. I wonder when Stripe will catch on to this. Basically marketing != what’s happening.
