Hello,
I have a question regarding payments for iOS apps in Russia.
Currently, In-App Purchases are not available or do not work for many users in Russia, making it impossible for them to purchase digital subscriptions or digital content via Apple IAP.
Is it allowed to:
- use an external payment provider available only in Russia,
- show this option only to users located in that region,
- and unlock access to digital content after payment is completed outside the app (for example, via a web page),
in cases where Apple IAP is technically unavailable?
Is there any official guidance or exception for regions where Apple IAP cannot be used?
Thank you.
