I think you should read the article

Regardless of where a user makes the purchase, the subscription will apply to all linked Facebook and Instagram accounts in a user’s Accounts Center

One reason is because Apple and Google make canceling monthly renewal easy, but mostly because people aren’t aware they can get better deal in web. It against Apple and Google ToS for an app to redirect their user to website for payment.
