Hi!

Is it allowed by Apple's rules to add an in app link to a buymeacoffe/ko-fi type donation page?

Short context: in the middle of wrapping up v1.0 for my first ever app, and I would like to publish it. However I dont think I have the capacity to implement in app purchases for v1.0. I was thinking maybe if I add this type of donation oportunity, it is better than nothing.

For the technicalities, I'm would like to use ko-fi, where they have a neat web widget style donation interface, and I just wrap that in a webview.

Thanks!

Hey :-) your post is already older and I don't know if my answer still helps you. But maybe for others that are also looking for it because I found this entry on google.

I have released an app with BuyMeACoffee as link that is opened in an In-App-Browser and it was successfully approved from apple.

Now I added BuyMeACoffee to a second app, but here with the possibility to do a monthly payment (Membership) and this app was rejected. I removed the membership and try it again now. Keep you updated.

I'm also quite late, but I really appreciate your reply!

Really interesting!

I see, I think your experience is really helpful if someone else wants to go this route as well.
