What would be the best way to do that? I feel the best way would be to link to a buy button on my webpage. Is there another way to do it with in app purchases? Doesn't apple take 30% of those purchases? What are some solutions to this? Title Comments So if I wanted to make an app where I would purchase something. What would be the best way to do that?

I'd be curious to see what you find, or what others can advise.

Just use some custom html to set it up.

A link to your pay pal account seems like the best solution. Comments That seems to be the best solution to set up a buy button on your website and just have the app link there.
