Can you tell me what Apple's fee is for in-app purchases of product sales like physical merchandise or books? Is there a link to a website that explains this? We are launching a subscription app and are not sure of the fees for any additional product sales that will occur.
Thanks!

Apple's standard IAP revenue distribution is 70% dev, 30% Apple - note that is 85%/15% for certain annual subscriptions.
See the iTunes Connect FAQ https://itunesconnect.apple.com/login
>like physical merchandise or books
IAP cannot be used for physical merchandise.
See Section 3.1.5 in the ASRGs:

Apple charges its fee by collecting all of the money when someone makes an In-App Purchase (for example for a subscription) and remitting only 70% to the developer. For sales of physical goods, what you are calling "additional product sales", Apple collects no money and charges no fee.

Hello everyone!
Could someone please tell me if a company (instead of the developer himself) can publish an app and be paid by Apple on the company's bank account?
Thanks

Yes, if that company registers as a corp./LLC when obtaining a Developer Program account.
