Hi,
We have an app that allows users to view and download videos that they have purchased or subscribed to. Today, users must have an account with our website and all commerce happens on that site. Users login to the app using with their account information and can see the same content in the app that they can on the site. I want to allow users to subscribe to or purchase content from the app as well, but they will also need to be able to access these purchases from the site.
Is this allowable? I would need to know the identity of the user that made the purchase so it can be tied to their purchase history on the site. All of the content they would be accessing is digital, so there are no physical fulfillment options. We have been told by one of our partners that Apple will not allow this sort of transaction, but in reading of the guidelines I am uncertain.
