Issue with your app

Your app contains content that doesn't comply with the Payments policy. Issue details We found an issue in the following area(s): In-app experience: Please see attached screenshot com.hoodz.hoodzapp-InAppExperience-122.png My app contain a webview (based on Stripe payment) for payment inscription.

Google and Apple want you to use their payment method (and take a %cut) for every in-app payment. There are some exceptions:

Payments for physical goods

Payments between app users

Other

So you arent allowed to integrate Stripe/paypal/others for app subscriptions

CN1 integrates in-app purchases and subscription with Google and Apple's API

I think that the answer is no. Your app will never pass review with a non-google/non-apple payment method unless you very specifically justify this to the reviewer (because you are selling physical goods, etc). They are very strict about this. Not even donations are allowed unless they go through Google/Apple and they get 15-30%

If you really want to avoid paying Google/Apple, you need to set up a payment form on a website (outside the app). From there you can generate some sort of code for the user who can type it into the app via a "I have a coupon code" type of thing. But you won't even be allowed to mention that web payment in the app, so this only works if your users already know that they need to pass through your website first

Everything Javier wrote is correct. A couple of nuances that might have been missed:

15% is now the default for both Apple and google in in-app-purchase until you reach 1M USD annually.

Google is less strict about enforcement so it's possible your app will pass with regular credit card charging. This relies on Google doing a horrible job testing the submissions... This sometimes flips and you get instantly banned with no recourse. So you should be careful with these things.

Testing? You think they test anything?  Most of the time they don’t even launch the app.
