If I create a CloudKit connected website, where users could buy premium services to the app, an e-purchase system would implemented and when purchase completes, I would store a Purchase recordType and then I would enable use-cases in app. Do you think procedure would violate any Apple rule? And so I could avoid to pay the 30%?!

Apple guidelines:
Apps that link to external mechanisms for purchases or subscriptions to be used in the App, such as a “buy” button that goes to a web site to purchase a digital book, will be rejected.

what about Dropbox? they offer more capacity if you buy premium service on their site?! - but they do not have any `Buy` button in the app , so they are not against the guidelines – János Jun 17 '15 at 11:21

But not within their app? The Upgrade button in the app triggers an iAP through the app store. – matthias Jun 17 '15 at 11:25

I see, I was not aware of IAP possibility, and the same upgrade is possible from web too for €99/year, do you think Apple charge them for 30% too?! – János Jun 17 '15 at 11:48

Maybe there are some special contracts for big companies, I don't know. – matthias Jun 17 '15 at 11:59
