Confused by Rejection – Physical QR Purchase Already Moved to Stripe (Not IAP)

Hi everyone,

We just received another App Store rejection under Guideline 3.1.3 - Business - Payments - Other Purchase Methods, stating that we are using in-app purchases to sell physical goods — specifically, a physical QR code sent to the user.

However, in our latest build, this issue was already addressed:

1. All physical QR code purchases are now handled entirely through Stripe Checkout, outside of the app.
2. No consumable IAPs are used for physical goods.
3. The purchase flow is completely optional - users can tap “Continue” to skip it and still use the app without ever engaging with Stripe or purchasing anything physical.

We’re a small team trying to launch and are stuck in a loop where it seems like the rejection feedback might not reflect the latest build with not clear feedback from Apple.

Has anyone experienced something similar?

Would really appreciate any guidance or insight — or if anyone from Apple is here, we’re happy to jump on a call to clarify.

Thanks in advance!
