instead of apple offered in-app purchase have imagined new system earn , save money. sell premium service in app, client should pay amount of bitcoin i.e. bitcoin wallet app copay. in app view called contribution, user see transfer sent personal bitcoin account. view have funny title: "there no free beer. support developer x bitcoin. (appr. 1$)" in bitcoin historical transfer available download, app use check wether payed or not. @ bottom put link, button wikipedia site , youtube site, how can user use bitcoin wallet.
app store review guideline 11.13 says: apps link external mechanisms purchases or subscriptions used in app, such "buy" button goes web site purchase digital book, rejected
in app user 50 piece of service free, , 50 each 50 cost amount of bitcoin. when user reach next 50 limit, app automatically navigate contribution view in app. , user not able continue, until bitcoin. not linked payment system in sense has close app, manually download / open i.e. copay , send me money. no buy button appear. obligatory pay.
do think apple accept called 'support developer' business model?
i surprised if apple knowingly allowed collect money (bitcoin) in-app functionality way. section of apple's review guidelines seems relevant me one:
11.2 apps utilizing system other in-app purchase api (iap) purchase content, functionality, or services in app rejected.
to me, means if want sell functionality in app (which you're planning on doing, bitcoin), need use apple's in-app purchase api instead, apple gets cut.
here's relevant discussion 3rd-party payments in app store apps:
ios app: apple allow 3rd party payments inside app
