The EU Digital Markets Act changed parts of the app-store billing landscape in Europe. Recurr does not depend on the DMA as the default migration path. The standard Nostos lane uses out-of-app communication and web billing, which can apply beyond DMA-specific regions. That choice is deliberate. DMA and other in-app routes can be useful in specific cases, but they can also introduce regional eligibility limits, platform-specific conditions, reporting obligations, or ancillary platform fee exposure. Nostos is designed to avoid depending on those routes for the default migration program.

​
Why the DMA still matters

The DMA matters because it changed buyer expectations. More subscription app teams now understand that app-store billing is not the only possible commercial rail. It can also create region-specific options for apps that want to use approved alternate billing or linking mechanisms.

​
Recurr’s posture

Recurr starts with the conservative migration lane:
  • Owned channels
  • Web checkout
  • App binary untouched
  • Access continuity through the existing stack
  • Cohort-by-cohort rollout
If a customer wants to consider a region-specific in-app path, that is scoped separately and reviewed against current platform rules.

Documentation role

The DMA page is here to help stakeholders understand the landscape. It is not the basis for Recurr’s default migration model.
