Hi,

I am developing an app, for a sporting event which will have pages like schedules, photo galleries, standings etc.

There will also be a videos section. The videos can be viewed only if you have subscribed, which means it is a paid service.

This videos section is a webview, which will be integrated in the app.

The payment gateway for the webview will be handled separately, and has nothing to do with in app billing.

My question is, if I have such a webview integrated in my app (which handles the payment through a gateway and does not use Apple's in app billing), is there a chance of my app getting rejected ?

So long as the payment mechanism is on your website and not in the app, there shouldn't

be a problem. You can deliver content in the app from external sources without using in-app

purchase. You just have to be sure it is presented outside of the app such as an account login

which can only happen via a website. To put it bluntly, the payment cannot happen inside the

app.
