Hi everyone. Very much enjoying the mobile native beta.
Just curious - has anyone thought about subscriptions or in-app payments yet? I was just about to implement stripe into my app, but my understanding is that if you are monetizing digital goods you need to do it through the App Store and Google Play. Has anyone thought about this or experimented with anything yet?
No other way around it. Have them sign up via web app and remove anything payment from the app or have to pay their commission;
"Pricing and fees
The Apple Developer Program is 99 USD per membership year, or in local currency where available.1
The commission on the sale of digital goods and services through the App Store is 30% (15% if you’re enrolled in the App Store Small Business Program, Video Partner Program, or News Partner Program) and 15% for qualifying subscriptions)."
I’m ok with paying the app store fees for the improvement in conversion rates. The question I had was more around implementation.
Is there a way in bubble to leverage the in-app payments from Apple?
I’m sure it’s on the roadmap! Hopefully, at the top of the list alongside push notifications 
Confirming that In App Payments are on the roadmap 
For those that are building a Saas, it’s app store policy to use the Apple or Google IAP systems to subscribe users to your apps. It’s how they take their commission. This has to be implemented with SDKs from Apple and Google.
If you aren’t building a Saas or selling digital media, you can use Stripe as you usually would i.e. Marketplace apps or person to person services. AirBnb and Uber fall into this category.
There are REST APIs available to manage subscriptions for both stores once a user has subscribed. i.e. Get a list of users, get a list of subscriptions, cancel a subscription.
No timeline yet but it will happen.
