Ios and android payments with Paypal
I am part of a team developing a system that will allow students to submit questions via the app to private tutors. Tutors review the question, answer it and receive money. Each student starts with some free questions, and after that they must either buy questions or receive questions through a coupon or referral program.
We have a couple of questions to follow along with these Apple guidelines:
- Shopping and currencies
11.1 Apps that unlock or activate additional features or functionality through mechanisms other than the App Store will be rejected
11.2. Apps that use a system other than the In-App Purchase API (IAP) to purchase content, functionality, or services in an app will be rejected
So, I can't be sure if we can integrate PayPal, referral or coupons and stay on the app store and play Google.
does anyone know and can give an answer for the certificate? or do you know where we can get any certificate? without knowing this, for sure we could have abandoned the project, there is nothing worse than working only to find out later that we received a ban from the shops
Thanks for any help you can provide

11.2 summarizes it for iOS, you must use an In-App Purchase for in-app purchases. You cannot direct or link a user to an external payment method.
It is possible to use payments entirely outside of the app, similar to Amazon Books, but there may be a link or link to this service. Take a close look at the Amazon Kindle app.
