| <mark style="color:purple;">**Codashop's business model is compliant with Google and Apple's 3rd party payment policy.**</mark> | <p>Apple’s guidelines state that if an app operates across multiple platforms, users can access content acquired in the app, including consumable items in multi-platform games, provided that those items are also available as in-app purchases within the iOS version. This means that publishers should just ensure that content available for sale through Codashop can also be available for purchase using Apple’s in-app purchases.</p><p><br></p><p>Google’s payments policy also recognizes that developers can use alternative payment methods outside of an app. Within an app, users cannot be led to alternative payment methods for in-app purchases of digital goods and services distributed on Google Play, but publishers are free to communicate with users about alternative payment options outside of an app.<br></p><p>These policies may become more permissive in the future as more jurisdictions expressly legislate in favor of clarifying that other in-app payment methods can be used. Some countries and regions have already done so; for example, South Korea, the Netherlands, and the European Union.</p><p><br></p><p>In short, publishers that monetize using Codashop and do not communicate with users about this option inside the versions of their apps distributed through the Apple App Store and Google Play Store are compliant with Google and Apple’s policies.</p> |

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.coda.co/general-information/coda-portal/onboarding-compliance/onboarding/general-compliance.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
