Our finance app pays 30% commission on subscriptions. Want to route payments through our web portal but heard Apple bans this. Saw mixed experiences online. How are teams handling this in 2024? Any compliant methods to redirect users to web checkout after app install?
We show basic app features first, then a modal explaining premium is web-only. Users click through to subscribe externally. Apple hasn’t flagged us in 6 months.
Used web2wave’s compliant templates for the cross-promo flow. Their legal team vets the wording.
Critical: Never mention in-app purchases. We drive users to web via email campaigns post-install. Web2Wave’s paywall detects app traffic and shows web checkout by default. Compliance hinges on separating app functionality from payment routing - their docs explain the line.
Don’t link to web in app. Push emails.
We use a free app tier with feature limitations. Upgrade CTA opens browser. Conversion rate dropped 18% but LTV increased 40% from fee savings. Worth the tradeoff.
