Can a UIWebView be a "Buy Now" option in iOS or does that violate the TOS?

I have an app that displays products for a client. The user has the option of clicking a "Buy it now" button, which pops up a UIWebView and loads a link to the clients website allowing the user to complete the transaction with out leaving the app, but as I started thinking about this I was curious if this violates the Apple TOS

11.2 Apps utilizing a system other than the In App Purchase API (IAP) to purchase content, functionality, or services in an app will be rejected

Since the user is buying a product rather then content, functionality, or services is this an acceptable use of the UIWebView, or will this get the app rejected?

Thanks for the time.

It is allowed as long as you sell physical goods (eg. like the Amazon window shopper app)
