Payment through webview controller in IOS app

I am making an app through which people can add fund via their credit card for some social purpose. I am doing it in UIWebview controller provided in objective-c. Can anyone suggest me that

1) Use of UIWebview for payment purpose is allowed in IOS

2) if yes then apple can still deduct its 30% share using this method.

Thanks in advance.

-1 yes you can use the UIwebview

2- Apple get the 30% only from IAP and payed apps

better way to do is using SDK example Paypal SDK

Using an SDK helps you to control more what you want to display for the user and you can build your own brand payement UI.

If the payment is not for a digital content/service such as an added feature to your app, you can make use of any payment gateways using an embedded web view. Charity will not comes under IAP(In app purchase). So it is safe to use any payment system. 30% deduction is only for IAP.

It depends on what it's for. If it's to unlock a feature, it's not allowed and your app would be rejected. If it's to buy a physical object, it is allowed and Apple wouldn't take a 30% cut of it.

More info could be found in the In-App Purchase Guidelines by Apple.
