Spotify said on Friday that\u00a0App<\/a>le has approved its U.S. app update that will allow users to access pricing information and external payment links. The approval comes days after a U.S. judge ordered Apple to stop charging commissions on purchases through iPhone apps.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn a victory for consumers, artists, creators, and authors, Apple has approved Spotify\u2019s U.S. app update,\u201d Spotify spokesperson Jeanna Moran said in a statement to TechCrunch. \u201cAfter nearly a decade, this will\u00a0finally<\/em>\u00a0allow us to freely show clear pricing information and links to purchase, fostering transparency and choice for U.S. consumers.\u201d<\/p>\n

She continued, \u201cWe can now give consumers lower prices, more control, and easier access to the Spotify experience. There is more work to do, but today represents a significant milestone for developers and entrepreneurs everywhere who want to build and compete on a more level playing field. It\u2019s the opening act of a new era, and we could not be more ready for the show.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

The updated app, version 9.0.40, is rolling out now on the App Store. Spotify is now one of the first major apps to get a new update, opening up purchases.<\/p>\n

Spotify submitted the update to Apple yesterday, noting that it could tell customers about different subscription options and how much each one costs right within the iPhone app. Users will also be able to link out to purchase or change their Spotify subscription plan on the company\u2019s website, where its transactions won\u2019t be subject to Apple\u2019s 30 percent service charge on in-app payments. Plus, Spotify said it would now be able to tell U.S. customers about promotional offers in the app.<\/p>\n

Apple said on Wednesday that it will comply with the court\u2019s order, but that it strongly disagrees with the decision and will appeal.<\/p>\n

US District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers said on Wednesday that Apple violated an order to reform its App Store. The tech giant was told to change its app store to allow developers to send customers to their websites to make purchases. According to the ruling, Apple not only failed to comply with the order but did so willfully, with the intention of establishing new anticompetitive barriers.<\/p>\n
