Yes, your client (as in the person who commissioned this app) and the user both need an apple id. The user needs it to use the app store and in app purchase. The client needs it to become a publisher on the app store and receive payment.

However, you can't just pick and choose if you want to use in app purchase. There are several rules that forbids you to use it for some purposes, as well ar requiring you to use it for others.

As a rule of thumb, if the payment is for functionality or data (such as more levels in a game), or a service (such as cloud data storage) - and you can deliver this immediately, you must use in app purchase. In some cases (such as books) you are allowed to accept payment outside of the app, but you are not allowed to link to that payment information from within the app.

If the payment is for a service or gods outside of the app (like a pizza, a donation or a bus ticket), you are not allowed to use in app purchase.
