Will Apple approve an App that asks the user to enter his credit card number?

Question

From reading discussions I understood that Apple will not approve an App that asks the user to enter his credit card number.

Is that correct?

Is there any way around it?

Thanks-

Nir.

Answer 1

What you've heard is not correct. Many apps, such as the Amazon app, allow the user to enter their credit card number.

Answer 2

Apple rarely turns away apps for limited functionality, so one approach might be a simple-as-possible app which sends a credit card number to a secure server and see if it gets through.
