Do i have to use in-app purchse o just send the notfication to my server to do it or redirect to a web page?

Apple will only take 30% if you use their In App Purchase API.


And since you can't use IAP for goods consumed outside the app, the 30% won't apply.


>or redirect to a web page?


Yes, outside of the app.

Thanks it help me allot i´ll start t🙂o develop my app

but what about this 2 points

  • Apps utilizing a system other than the In-App Purchase API (IAP) to purchase content, functionality, or services in an App will be rejected
  • Apps using IAP to purchase physical goods or goods and services used outside of the App will be rejected

    if i not use the IAP and my server will do it my app will be rejected?

Those two points are correct.


In-App Purchase is exclusivelly for consumption of "things" within the app.


If those "things" are products or services outside of the app, then you need to get a payment system that provides "out-of-app" payments (just google for payments skd ios and you will find loads).


For instance, if your transactions include a donation, Apple explicitly states that you need to perform an out-of-app payment.


Most SDK that i've seen provide such with a webview and a special website that "hides" the fact that you are not on the app. The user have a seamless transaction, but the payment is made without using IAP.

Hi Luis,


Are donations made outside of the app all allowed by apple? What if the developer is not a registered charitable organization?


Thanks!!
