iOS most certainly does not have real sideloading. You can if you recompile the app with your own key every 7 days. Or you can use testflight with some very serious restrictions like not being able to monetize at all.

There are endless KYC/AML requirements for entities that can transfer or emit USD.

It’s completely reasonable that side loaded applications should not be entitled to use regulated payment services.

Edit: Even Android will not entitle side loaded apps for Google payment processing. Android and iOS are literally identical in this regard.

Either side loaded apps get allowed to use payment processors, or the App Store apps are allowed to use whatever processor they want.

Not a lawyer but that’s probably illegal in the states. (Also hilarious username is hilarious!)
