Can I create subscription payment model with Apple Pay? I see a lot of examples with a single transaction. But what about subscriptions? For example, each month bill $10 to the user.

You can use Apple Pay for subscriptions, provided you comply with the guidelines Apple provides:

Apps using Apple Pay to offer recurring payments must, at a minimum, disclose:

  • The length of the renewal term and the fact that it will continue until canceled.
  • What will be provided during each period.
  • The charges that will be billed to the customer. And
  • How to cancel.

The guidelines are available here.
