JAKARTA - The chief executive of the game maker of "Fortnite", Epic Games and other vocal critics of Apple Inc and Alphabet Inc's Google plan to speak in South Korea, where the two US tech giants are facing new regulations forcing them to open their app stores. to allow payments from third parties.
Sweeney's team and representatives from Match Group plan to speak at a conference next week about fairness in the online ecosystem, according to the company's representatives.
Sweeney's visit to Korea comes a day after a US judge rejected Apple's request to stop a series of court orders handed down after a lengthy antitrust trial between Apple and Epic Games. The order requires Apple to allow developers to create in-app buttons and links to third-party payment systems.
In August, South Korean lawmakers amended the country's Telecommunications Business Act. Under the changes, app store operators must allow third-party payment systems in their stores instead of forcing developers to use in-app payment systems that charge additional commissions.
The Korean Communications Commission (KCC) has asked Apple and Google to submit the compliance plan.

Last week, Google said it had put forward a plan that for the first time would allow third-party payments on Play Stereo, but it's not clear whether the plan will lower costs for developers or not.
Instead of charging a standard 15% commission for using its in-app payment system, Google said it would charge an 11% commission to developers who use their own payment system. The developer is likely to pay a 3% to 4% surcharge to payment processors outside of the Play Store.
Apple has not said whether it has submitted such a compliance plan. In October, a Korean official told Reuters that Apple had told regulators it had no confidence and needed to make any changes to its current business practices, potentially putting the iPhone maker on a collision course with regulators.
