It’ll soon be free to publish apps to the Microsoft Store
SMRTR summary
Microsoft announced the elimination of developer onboarding fees for the Microsoft Store on Windows, starting June 2025. Individual developers can now publish apps without paying the previous $19 registration fee. This move comes as Apple faces pressure over App Store fees, while Google still charges a one-time $25 fee for Google Play. Microsoft will maintain its 12-15% fee for developers using its commerce platform.
