Windows developers can now sell paid apps in volume through Windows Store for Business where companies will be able to purchase apps in volume with credit cards. Additional purchase options are planned for future releases, including invoicing, volume discounts, and organizational in-app purchases.
In some markets, the price shown for an app in the Windows Store for Business may be different than the price shown to retail customers in the Windows Store for the same price tier. The payouts of proceeds from organizational purchases will be processed in the same way as consumer purchases.
