iOS 的定期订阅政策适用于服务，而非内容
提前为政策道歉，而不是编程问题，但鉴于网上可用的信息很少，我希望可以原谅我在这里提出这个问题。
我想在 iOS 应用程序中使用 Apple 的新定期订阅。我之前已经对付款进行了编码，并且没有出现任何问题，但是我无法找到有关新订阅类型所允许的内容的指导。其含义“似乎”是没有特别的指导，但是我能找到的所有讨论都在谈论“内容”提供商而不是服务提供商。
我想对人们订阅的服务使用定期订阅。我本身不提供任何内容。
使用旧的非续订订阅类型（这确实太糟糕了，不值得使用），我 99% 确定该应用程序会被接受，但内容提供商的所有言论让我担心苹果真的不想要SAAS 提供商使用定期订阅模型，并希望将其限制为内容发布者。
有人有使用软件即服务的新支付模式的经验吗？
在我们围绕这个概念构建整个支付解决方案之前，我很想了解它是否可行！
Apologies in advance for a policy, rather than a programming question, but given the paucity of information available online I hope I can be forgiven for asking it here.
I would like to use the new recurring subscriptions from Apple in an iOS app. I have coded payments before and have no problems there, however nowhere can I find guidance on what is allowed under the new subscription type. The implication 'seems' to be that there is no special guidance, however all the discussions I can find are talking about 'content' providers rather than service providers.
I would like to use the recurring subscription for a service that people subscribe to. I am not offering any content per se.
Using the old non-renewing subscription type (that is really so broken it isn't worth using) I'm 99% sure the app would be accepted, but all the talk of content providers has me worried that Apple really don't want SAAS providers to use the recurring subscription model and want to restrict it to publishers of content.
Does anyone have experience with using the new payment model for software as a service?
I'd love to get some better idea as to whether it's viable or not before we build a whole payment solution around the concept!

很抱歉我来晚了一点，但我对此有一个答案。
基本上大约一个月前，我提交了我的应用程序，但由于不包含 iAP 而被拒绝，因为它链接到我们的 SAAS 网站供用户设置订阅。所以我开始实施自动续订订阅。没花我太长时间，测试效果很好。所以我重新提交了。并再次被拒绝。
尽管在创建 iAP 产品时有一句漂亮的小话这样说：
因此，根据我的经验，SAAS 不允许自动续订。
I am sorry that i am coming into this a little late, but i have an answer for this.
Basically about a month ago i submitted my app and it got rejected for not including iAP as it links to our SAAS website for users to set up their subscriptions. So off i went and implemented Auto-Renwing subscriptions. didn't take me too long and from testing worked fine. So i resubmitted. and got rejected again.
Even though when creating an iAP product there is a nice little line that says this:
So from my experience auto renewing is NOT allowed for SAAS.
我认为 iOS 上有关自动续订订阅的政策最近可能发生了变化，但这很困难，因为仍然有很多旧的信息和开发人员的推荐。 Marco Arment 的博客在此处和 < a href="http://www.marco.org/2013/12/02/auto-renewable-subscriptions" rel="nofollow noreferrer">此处，但这些是 2012 年和 2013 年
截至目前的 ( 2014年中），据我所知，相关政策已发生变化：
对此：
因此，似乎主要针对期刊的旧限制现在已扩展到许多其他用例。有许多像 Evernote 这样的应用程序已切换到自动续订的公开示例。

I think the policy around auto-renewing subscriptions on iOS may have changed recently, but it's tough because there's still a lot of older information and testimonials from developers out there. Marco Arment's blog talks a lot about the policy here and here, but those are from 2012 and 2013
As of now (mid-2014), from what I've been able to gather, the relevant policy has changed from this:
to this:
So it seems like an older restriction that was mostly focused on periodicals has now been expanded to a bunch of other use cases. There are a number of public examples of apps like Evernote that have switched to auto-renewals.

如果我理解您的问题，您将提供“另一个月的此服务”作为订阅项目。这将是基于订阅的游戏等的常见模型。也许您是否允许的最佳指示是寻找其他执行此操作的应用程序。
此外，不要害怕联系 Apple！他们不是怪物，而且他们确实回答问题！您可以向技术支持发送电子邮件，或者，如果这没有给您带来有用的答复，请要求与 Apple 的一位 iOS 业务开发经理交谈。他们的员工的职责就是帮助您的企业取得成功。如果他们不知道答案，他们就会找到答案；如果答案是“否”，他们会帮助您找出做类似事情的方法。他们非常友好&知识渊博，就像一个专门从事iOS应用业务的天才吧。
让我们知道您学到了什么！
If I understand your question, you are offering "another month of this service" as a subscription item. This would be a common model for subscription-based games, etc. Probably your best indication of whether or not it is allowed is to look for other apps that do it.
In addition, don't be afraid to contact Apple! They're not monsters, and they do answer questions! You can email tech support or, if that doesn't get you a helpful response, ask to talk with one of Apple's iOS biz-dev managers. They have people whose job it is to help you make your business succeed. If they don't know the answer, they'll find it; if the answer is "no", they'll help you figure out ways to do something similar. They're quite friendly & knowledgable, like a genius bar dedicated to the iOS app business.
Let us know what you learn!
正如我在对 @Joe Meredith 的回复的评论中提到的，我也收到了类似的拒绝。虽然我认为这是由于不成文的规则，但我刚刚注意到这位黑客新闻评论者 找到了一条明确规定的书面规则
As I mention in my comment to @Joe Meredith's response, I received a similar rejection. Although I thought that this was due to an unwritten rule, I just noticed that this Hacker News commenter found a written rule that explicitly states that
2019年，情况发生了一些变化。 Apple 现在允许通过 IAP 使用 SaaS 模型自动续订订阅：
As for 2019, things have changed a little bit. Apple now do allow the usage of the SaaS model with IAP Auto Renewable Subscriptions:
