I have an app that sells Virtual Phone Numbers. When an user subscribes, we deliver a new virtual number and the user can manage this number within the app. After that, the user can receive calls but not necesarily through the app. I mean, after the initial purchase the user does not need to open the app to use the service but I need a way to check the subscription status monthly. My question is, can I set up a cron in the server to check the next receipts even the user wont open the app anymore?
Is it possible to sell a subscription service that is not delivered through the app? Thanks.

IF your service is eligible for auto-renewable subscriptions you can use that ( this is tricky because they reject this if the app dosen’t give content. see more here: http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/NetworkingInternet/Conceptual/StoreKitGuide/RenewableSubscriptions/RenewableSubscriptions.html )
