There are things that you could sell by paypal in iphone apps, imagine that your app exists to promote your business, and not that your app IS your business.

You cannot use paypal, but you have to use instead in-app purchase, if you sell some additional feature for you app...

I hope this helps

Answer 2

Hello, Apple policy restricts from using our library for accepting digital goods. Use our library should be for hard goods, donations, personal payments and services only.

I hope this clarifies your question.

Thank you.
