Subscriptions With Automated Recurring Billing Come To Windows 10 (betanews.com)

Posted by msmash on from the next-up dept.

An anonymous reader shares a report: In yet another bid to woo developers to the platform, Microsoft is introducing subscription add-ons for Windows 10 Anniversary Edition, and later. Available to all UWP developers, the add-on subscriptions with automated recurring billing will allow creators to sell digital products directly in their apps. Subscription periods available include 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year or 2 years, and it's possible for developers to offer a free trial period too.

    It took me a while to remember that Windows 10 actually came with some kind of app store...

    Seriously, is there someone left who did NOT disable that crap yet?
