However, starting this July, when using the Facebook or Instagram apps on the iOS platform to run ads, advertisers will be charged an additional 30% service fee by Apple on the total advertising amount, excluding applicable taxes and other fees by country.
Meta is about to collect 30% of the money users spend to run ads on Facebook and Instagram apps.
Meta is about to collect 30% of the money users spend to run ads on Facebook and Instagram apps.
Meta asserts that this service fee is collected by Apple, and that Meta does not collect any additional fees. Apple's service fee is a result of updates Apple made to its App Store Review Guidelines.
"Meta is forced to comply with Apple's guidelines or remove promotional posts on iOS apps. Meta does not want to remove the Boosted Post advertising feature, because businesses will lose a convenient and effective advertising method," Meta said.
To support the millions of small businesses using Boosted Post advertising on Facebook and Instagram, Meta recommends that advertisers can go directly to Instagram.com or Facebook.com on mobile and desktop to promote content and avoid Apple's 30% service fee.
