How does pricing work in countries with VAT compared to the US?
Let's say the customer price for an app is $9.99 in the U.S. excluding any sales tax. How much would the customer price be in Great Britain (as an example) which has a VAT of 20%. Let's ignore currency conversion to simplify. U.S. customer price: $9.99 G.B. customer price: ??? Would it be $9.99 with VAT inclusive of this amount? OR would it be $11.99 with VAT inclusive of this amount. Excluding VAT would be $9.99 Maybe it depends on the developer pricing, but what would it typically be? I assume the latter ($11.99).

App Store receipt JSON is missing environment?
I'm doing some validation on transactions based on the raw Apple JSON receipt. I'm seeing several receipts that don't have an environment field (example below with certain data replaced). I would expect to see a field that says: "environment": "Production", like I do for most of the receipts. Is this an actual production transaction or is it a sandbox transaction? Is this an Apple issue with how they're producing the file? "receipt": { "original_purchase_date_pst": "2014-06-25 09:30:38 America/Los_Angeles", "expires_date_formatted": "2015-12-25 17:30:37 Etc/GMT", "original_purchase_date_ms": "1403713838000", "original_transaction_id": "123", "purchase_date": "2015-06-25 16:30:37 Etc/GMT", "expires_date": "1451064637000", "unique_vendor_identifier": "123", "product_id": "com.mycompany.app.purchases.mysku.skusub.6", "expires_date_formatted_pst": "2015-12-25 09:30:37 America/Los_Angeles", "unique_identifier": "123", "original_purchase_date": "2014-06-25 16:30:38 Etc/GMT", "bid": "com.mycompany.app", "app_item_id": "338701294", "purchase_date_pst": "2015-06-25 09:30:37 America/Los_Angeles", "bvrs": "68", "item_id": "641346776", "quantity": "1", "transaction_id": "140000146424116", "purchase_date_ms": "1435249837000", "web_order_line_item_id": "140000009776448" }, "auto_renew_status": 1, "status": 0, "latest_receipt": "ewoJxcvs...snip" "auto_renew_product_id": "com.mycompany.app.purchases.mysku.skusub.6", "latest_receipt_info": { "original_purchase_date_pst": "2014-06-25 09:30:38 America/Los_Angeles", "subscription_group_identifier": "491923", "expires_date_formatted": "2021-06-25 16:30:37 Etc/GMT", "original_purchase_date_ms": "1403713838000", "original_transaction_id": "140000095432215", "expires_date": "1624638637000", "purchase_date": "2020-12-25 17:30:37 Etc/GMT", "unique_vendor_identifier": "123", "product_id": "com.mycompany.app.purchases.mysku.skusub.6", "is_trial_period": "false", "expires_date_formatted_pst": "2021-06-25 09:30:37 America/Los_Angeles", "unique_identifier": "123", "original_purchase_date": "2014-06-25 16:30:38 Etc/GMT", "bid": "com.mycompany.app", "app_item_id": "338701294", "purchase_date_pst": "2020-12-25 09:30:37 America/Los_Angeles", "bvrs": "68", "item_id": "641346776", "in_app_ownership_type": "PURCHASED", "quantity": "1", "transaction_id": "140000898351748", "web_order_line_item_id": "140000290017162", "purchase_date_ms": "1608917437000", "is_in_intro_offer_period": "false" } }

pricePoints - List All Price Points for an App (price per product and country)
Hi, I noticed this new endpoint in the App Store Connect API. Was wondering if someone can run it for their app and include a sample output for a few territories. Specifically looking if this call returns for customer price for a specific territory and product_sku. (I'm just a data analyst who is trying to figure something out for a client - I don't currently have access to the Apple account) https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appstoreconnectapi/list_all_price_points_for_an_app?changes=__6 Thanks!

App Store - Refund when a user upgrades a subscription on app store?
When a user upgrades, do they receive an actual refund for the unused portion of their original sub in their original form of payment and then charged the full amount of the upgrade? OR the unused amount of the original sub is applied to the upgrade subscription? example: Original - $100 90% of the time is unused when they upgrade, which costs $200. is $90 refunded to the user in their bank account and then the user charged $200? the $90 is credited to the upgrade purchase and the user is charged $110 ($200 - $90)
