After a wishy-washy last couple of weeks, Apple has finally told the micro-payment donation app Flattr that there’s no deal. The iPhone maker said that the service violates the App Store’s terms and conditions with third-party payments.

“Apple is notoriously secretive about its motives or what would be the compliant and best way of doing things that are sort of new,” Flattr’s community manager Siim Teller wrote in a . “What does this mean for the future of Flattr inside applications for iPhone and iPad?”

With the motto, “Support Great Web Content,” the idea behind Flattr is to help people give money to blogs, Web sites, podcast and video-makers in order for 모바일상품권현금화 the businesses to continue creating products that users appreciate. When users see a “Flattr” button on a Website they can click it to donate money.

Flattr’s payment system does use third-party payments, but until earlier this month it wasn’t a serious issue for Apple. It all began on May 6 when the tech giant rejected an update for the well-known podcast manager Instacast, which used Flattr’s platform.
