What are "real-world services" for Apple that can be payed by Paypal in iOS app? -
according apple rules, it's allowed use external payment methods paypal goods , services "used outside of application" or "real-world services".
11.2 apps utilizing system other in-app purchase api (iap) purchase content, functionality, or services in app rejected
11.3 apps using iap purchase physical goods or goods , services used outside of application rejected
we have internet service paid options, dropbox or skype. service can used "outside application" - in literal sense of these words: can used ios application or without it, inside or outside it.
the quesion is: internet services dropbox or skype "real-world", can use paypal payment method, or "unreal world", , should use in app purchases?
no. if service delivered digitally not qualify--you not allowed use own payment system in app, nor allowed link outside app payment system. in experience putting name of website in app considered apple circumventing in-app purchase rules.
if service physical (like gym membership or dog walking service), yes.
there plenty of articles on internet. eg: http://www.macrumors.com/2013/04/03/skydrive-3-0-appears-in-app-store-following-apple-microsoft-conflict-over-subscription-options/
