So when buying €4,99 worth of sats within Primal wallet ~36% is deducted (in-app purchase). Breakdown may be like:
-Apple’s charge %30
-Lightning Fees ~%1
-Primal’s charge ~%5

You shouldn't buy in-app. You have the option so the cucks at Apple think you are going to give them a 30%, but you should buy somewhere else, send to that wallet, and zap around without giving them shit.
Primal doesn't make any money on iOS in-app purchases of sats. Apple charges 15% in U.S. and Canada (30% elsewhere), Stike charges 1%. Apple might apply additional sales tax per their local app store rules.
These aren't cheap sats. The option is there so that newly onboarded users can experience Nostr zapping without friction. We deliberately limit these in-app purchases to $5 at a time and $50 max per day.
Note that the "receive" function on the Primal wallet works as soon as you activate it. Users who already own sats can load their wallet that way and zap away! ⚡️
People are shitting on this decision but I actually think it’s a great option for people. Nice job
Why do I need to put my name and email to activate my wallet if I just wanted to receive into it without Apple Pay?
I’m curious why it’s necessary to put personal info inc. email in to activate the wallet? Is there an alternative way to zap ⚡️ like using zapplepay with alby on Damus?
