Hello Thunkers! Can the stripe component be used and accepted by Apple’s Appstore? Won’t they complain about it? That’s it for now! Thank you for the attention (: ---

Hey @vba, I haven’t tried this myself yet actually, but I think it should be fine? The Stripe API can be integrated into iOS apps any way, for sure. > **[iOS Integration | Stripe Payments](https://stripe.com/docs/mobile/ios)** > > Online payment processing for internet businesses. Stripe is a suite of payment APIs that powers commerce for businesses of all sizes. Is there any particular reason why you think this might be an issue? ---

Because I’ve seen [this thread](http://community.thunkable.com/t/rejected-app-hidden-external-payment-mechanism/58032) about “hidden external payment mechanism” and the reason Apple sent mentioned Stripe SDK. Another doubt that I have is, if I compile and publish my app on a pro plan, I will enjoy the Thunkable Pro fee, which waives off Thunkable’s 2% fee that is applied on freely generated apps. If after, let’s say 6 months, I cancel my Thunkable Pro subscription, will that 2% start to be applied on the payments I process via Stripe component? And thank you for creating Thunkable, you’re the best visual native app builder out there! ---

Hey @vba, We’re you talking with us about this in the Chat Support today too? > [@vba](#): > > Apple sent mentioned Did Apple send you an email about you app? > [@vba](#): > > Another doubt that I have is, if I compile and publish my app on a pro plan… If you publish as a PRO user you will still have the 0% rate, however, if you want to update your app at a later date you’ll need to decide between higher commission or paying for another monthly membership at that point. Hope that makes sense. ---

Great! Exactly the information I was looking for. Thank you! ---
