Epic Games charges 12% instead of the 30% Apple, Google, and Steam charge. If when buying a game, you decide to support a creator (basically by entering a referral code), Epic Games then gives 5% to the creator of your choice. And I believe that comes out of their cut, which means Epic is charging 7% in that case, the developer is getting 88%, and the buyer's favorite Twitch streamer is getting 5%.
