Controlled distribution through AppStore

I know there is a B2B program to do this, that is not available in my region. But I want users to download the app from AppStore and use the features they bought license for (not in-app purchase but externally). Can we use configuration profiles here?

There is no settings available in AppStore for doing that.

I have an app in AppStore, for which I implemented such a mechanism. What I did was:

  1. When user launches my app, it'll ask for a PIN
  2. This PIN can be bought externally (through our website or sales wing)
  3. When they enter the PIN, I'm validating the purchase and configures the app
  4. I'm checking the available feature for that particular user, and disables the not-yet purchased ones
