I am developing an iOS application & I am going to sell products in application based on user type after user login.
If user is of Type A [ Privileged User] Then he can download product totally free / Based on promo code / Purchase if Promo Code is InValid (That I can decide based on some flags).
If user is of Type B [ Normal User] He have to pay for product & then he can download it on successful payment.
But, I have doubt about it whether Apple is going to approve this or not. At the time of submission of application to app store, I will provide them Normal User (User of Type B) credentials so that they can buy it normally.
Is this approach is right or wrong ?
Other way is, I can set same product with two different identifiers on iTunes connect. One for free & another for purchase one.
When user logs in based on user Type I can decide which products to load for that user based on product identifiers which I have with me.
Is there any alternate solutions for same ?
Has anybody gone through same scenario ?
Thanking You !
An in-app purchase is any fee an app may ask for. Many in-app purchases are optional or give users additional features. Others serve as subscriptions and require users to sign up and pay a fee to use the app – often after an initial free trial.
All purchases are paid to the app store.
In the App Store, applications with in-app purchases will have a disclaimer next to the purchase button. If the app is initially free, this note should be beside the Get button. If it's paid, the disclaimer is beside the price tag.
In-app purchases are extra content or subscriptions that you buy inside an app. Not all apps offer in-app purchases. To check if an app offers in-app purchases before you buy or download it, find it in the App Store. Then look for "In-App Purchases" near the app's price or Get button.
I had a free app in the store that was using in-app purchases to enable features. I also had a place to enter promo codes which could also enable features. It was rejected by Apple because of the ability to enter a promo code and bypass the app store. Sounds like the same as what you are trying to do.
