title: Apple In-App Purchase - clarification?
body: <p>I am a developer of apps for iPhone and iPad.</p>
  
  <p>One of my apps is a companion app to an online personal finance management tool which provides its services and functionality through a website. A section of these features will be made available to the iPhone audience through a native iOS app that I am creating.</p>
  
  <p>The portal allows users to use most of the features for their personal finance management free of charge. It also has a subscription model which provides the user additional features on the website and provides for expansion of some services both on portal and the mobile app.</p>
  
  <p>I am planning to continue using the same subscription model on app, and will redirect users to a payment gateway if they want to subscribe for the personal finance management services through the app.</p>
  
  <p>My question here is do my app falls under in-app purchase (non consumable)? Since my iPhone app is not the only medium where I could subscribe those services. I can open the web portal and subscribe and can login as normal user in my iPhone app. </p>
  
  <p>I had gone through the apple in-app purchase guidelines and found this information is not clearly stated.</p>
  
  <p>Any help will be appreciated.</p>
