I am developing one application, it contains purchasing of products. I am loading the paypal website in the webview when user is clicking the buy button.
But i read the apple guidelines “Apps that link to external mechanisms for purchases or subscriptions to be used in the app, such as a “buy” button that goes to a web site to purchase a digital book, will be rejected”.
I will explain the flow:
Case 1: I have a product details page and there is a buy option in that page. By clicking that button i am navigating to that product’s website payment section and all payment will be from that site.
Case 2: I have the option to send cash to another person, so that while clicking that option i am navigating the user to the paypal’s website.
Now i am totally confused. Can i proceed like this? Will my app get rejected? Please give me solution to sort this out?
The key question is what are the people buying?
If it’s a physical product then any method will be fine.
If it’s a digital product then then you will have to use Apple’ in-app purchase.
