A judge denied Apple 's appeal for an emergency stay on a ruling on a dispute over payments made outside the App Store in the US .

That means Apple will no longer be able to collect fees when users click on links within an app that takes them to an external site for a purchase.

Apple still took up to a 27 percent cut for external purchases while showing users a "scare screen" warning that paying they'd lost the company's protection.
