i have non-renewable plans in my app console. Upon plan approval, testing was successful initially. However, after 2 days, the plan, which I had successfully purchased multiple times in the sandbox environment, now displays an 'Invalid product ID,' while other plans continue to function correctly.

We had a few users reporting this issue where our app is unable to connect to StoreKit. Failed product request from the App Store server: systemError(Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=4097 "connection to service named com.apple.storekitagent" UserInfo={NSDebugDescription=connection to service named com.apple.storekitagent}) This occurs when calling Product.products(for:). Some users mentioned they had to restart their Mac in safe mode to make the error go away, some had DNS cache issues and clearing those helped, or some found the culprit to be Adguard. What could be causing this error as it is not very clear what's causing it?

Hi all, I have an app which is essentially a keyboard extension. Some features of the keyboard require a subscription to work, and this subscription can be bought in the main app. My question is, can the keyboard extension use StoreKit 2 to verify the validity of a subscription created in the main app? If this isn't possible (due to sandboxing or whatever), I suppose I can just write status information that's shared using an app group, but the problem with this is that the app is likely to run seldomly. This mean that if the subscription is cancelled or lapses, the main app may not see it for a while, and the keyboard will continue to functions even though it has expired. One other thing I've thought of is maybe to share the receipt of the purchase with the extension, and have the keyboard sync and verify the receipt periodically with Apple's servers. Is this the proper way to do it? Thanks!

We're facing some trouble with In App Purchases in our app. We are not able to confirm the purchase when users don't come back to the app right after purchasing an in app product as we will not be able to reach our backend. We were thinking, would it be possible to have a web hook that triggers after receiving the payment from the customer? This would help us keep track of purchases, even if users don't come back to the app immediately after purchasing. We configured consumable in app purchases in our app. We credit the same amount to user's in app wallet after doing an in app purchase. Any help or advice you can give on this would be awesome!

Hi there! I've recently created custom offer codes to use in our promo campaigns. Our team faced the issue: when we try to redeem the code through the App Store - it doesn't work. Hovewer, the code does work when redeeming it through the link. My question is - can these custom codes be redeemed through the App Store? or is this basically impossible? I see the info on the developers page: Each code can be redeemed through a direct URL or within your app. - there is no word about the App Store, but probably someone has the experience in these codes. The source: https://developer.apple.com/news/?id=9sjl5wuv

You can still renew your membership within the next 8 days and your apps will remain available on the App Store during this time. Open the Apple Developer app on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac. Sign in to your account, tap/click Renew, and follow the prompts. I'm getting this message but renew button is not visible in Developer App or on website. How to to renew?

I have implemented Store Kit for my Swift UI App. I defined all products in app store connect (auto-renewables & non-renewables). I tested everything in Xcode and it seems to run fine. However i want to test it in Sandbox to be able to check the server side dependencies. After creating Sandbox users and logging in to those accounts on my physical device, i am still only able to do payments in Xcode ("[Environment: Xcode]"). I added the In-App Purchase Capability to my project in the Signing & Capability Targets and made sure the app runs in debug mode. So according to the docs (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/in-app_purchase/testing_in-app_purchases_with_sandbox) everything seems to be set-up.

In this link https://support.cybersource.com/knowledgebase/knowledgearticle/?code=KA-04318 it says that recurring payments will stop working in Feb 2024 if you are using device generated tokens, so we need to migrate to Apple merchant tokents which are supossed to be better. Visa is making enhancements to network tokens to ensure their continued compatibility with follow-on transactions. Due to these changes, there is impact to a few use cases for Apple Pay recurring transactions. Beginning February 2024, the current device generated Apple Pay network tokens will no longer be applicable for Standing Instruction transactions. Standing Instruction use cases constitute recurring, installments, or unscheduled credential on file token usages. Fortunately, Apple has exposed a new recurring token type that is to be leveraged for any standing instruction transactions. This token type increases the longevity of Apple Pay tokens and are ideally suited for Standing Instruction merchant initiated transactions. I've been trying to find more information about this, but this link seems to be the only source for this topic, which confuses me because due to the proximity of the date, t here should be quite a few people concerned about it. I have react native app that uses the react-native-iap library, I was looking at the code and I we don't seem to be using a device generated token. But given the importance of payments, I want to be 100% sure this doesn't affect us. Is anyone really impacted by this, is the information even real? In which cases this requires changes? Thank you.

Hello, I have develop a app but continue to reject for 2 problems from resolve: For GUIDELINES 3.1.1.: I don't know how i can resolve, because there are more apps that is paymant using browser on app without use in-app purchase, example the apps SUPERENALOTTO when I pay, open a window browser with type of payments (especially out the app), the app ENI PLENITUDE when there is a bill to pay, can pay with Apple Pay on app but how can I specify the price on in-app purchase if the price is not fixed but occurs based on the cost of the bill. On in-app purchase there are the price that I have to insert from $0.99 to up. Please can you help me? Because, yesterday I have change on app the payment on browser but they rejected it anyway. For GUIDELINES 5.1.1: There are too every apps that can registered without specifying or explaining what registration is for, example the apps BADOO and LOVOO and NETFLIX there are only ACCESS, REGISTERED and PASSWORD DISMISSED...Can you help me with this too? Can I see a specific example? A screenshot? I've been studying and updating/editing for many days but they rejected me 10 times Thank you very much.

Hi, I have some questions about App Store Server Notifications that I can't seem to figure out. Specifically, those related to Family Shared purchases, that contain the 'FAMILY_SHARED' inAppOwnershipType. I'll focus on 'OFFER_REDEEMED' notifications, but I have the same questions for regular subscription purchases (with no offers involved): When a user redeems an offer code for a given subscription, do we receive a notifications for each of the family members? In that case, should we receive one with ownership 'PURCHASED', and the rest with the 'FAMILY_SHARED', or could we just receive notifications for 'FAMILY_SHARED' if that's the one who redeemed it? Assuming the redeemed offer was a free trial, whenever that user disables auto renewal, should we again receive one notification for each family member? We are certainly receiving disabled_renewal notifications with ownership type 'FAMILY_SHARED'. Is there any way of linking a given 'FAMILY_SHARED' ownership event/notification to the original or parent 'PURCHASED' notification/purchase? They usually come later in time, with no specific order. If we were to track the proceeds or active subscriptions, should we just ignore any notification with ownership 'FAMILY_SHARED', and focus on 'PURCHASED' ones ? In other words, is it safe to assume that we would always receive a notification of ownership 'PURCHASED', even if the one redeeming the offer code is a family member? (not sure if that is a possible scenario). Thank you.

I am really frustrated with storekit2, is it me or is it an Apple bug? the subscription doesn't exist LITERALLY and the code still append a subscription to my currentSubscriptions!! Unfortunatelly I cannot attach an image but the susbcrioption doesn't exist in the storekit debug window but the code still append a valid subscription! https://stackoverflow.com/questions/77783897/storekit2-subscription-is-not-existant-and-still-append-subscription-bug // update the customers products @MainActor func updateCustomerProductStatus() async { var purchasedSubs: [Product] = [] var purchasedIAP: [Product] = [] //iterate through all the user's purchased products for await result in Transaction.currentEntitlements { do { //again check if transaction is verified let transaction = try checkVerified(result) //Check the `productType` of the transaction and get the corresponding product from the store. switch transaction.productType { case .consumable: if let iap = iaps.first(where: { $0.id == transaction.productID }) { purchasedIAP.append(iap) } case .autoRenewable: if let subscription = subscriptions.first(where: { $0.id == transaction.productID }) { //SUBSCRIPTION DOESN'T EXIST AND STILL GETS APPENDED!! purchasedSubs.append(subscription) } default: break } } catch { //storekit has a transaction that fails verification, don't delvier content to the user print("Transaction failed verification") } //finally assign the purchased products self.purchasedIAPs = purchasedIAP self.purchasedSubscriptions = purchasedSubs } }

I'm currently testing subscriptions in Sandbox. In AppstoreConnect, I set a grace period of 3 days. I subscribed for a service which expired and now it's inBillingRetryPeriod state. I thought it had to do with my payment method. After updating my payment method, it still remains in that state. I checked Status.RenewalInfo's gracePeriodExpiration and expirationReason values but both produced nil. How do I exit the inBillingRetry state? I'm new to in-app purchases. Thanks. Here's the relevant code that updates subscription status: @MainActor func updateSubscriptionStatus() async { do { guard let product = storeManager.renewables.first, let statuses = try await product.subscription?.status else {return} var highestProduct: Product? = nil var highestStatus: Product.SubscriptionInfo.Status? = nil for status in statuses { switch status.state { case .expired, .revoked: continue default: let verifiedRenewalInfo = try storeManager.checkVerified(status.renewalInfo) //Find the first subscription in the store that matches id on the `status.renewalInfo` guard let newSubscription = storeManager.renewables.first(where: {$0.id == verifiedRenewalInfo.autoRenewPreference}) else { continue } guard let currentProduct = highestProduct else { highestProduct = newSubscription highestStatus = status // next status continue } let currentProductTier = storeManager.tierDuration(for: currentProduct.id) let newTier = storeManager.tierDuration(for: newSubscription.id) if newTier > currentProductTier { //updated product and status highestProduct = newSubscription highestStatus = status } } } currentSubscription = highestProduct // currentSubscription is an @State status = highestStatus // status is an @State if let mySubcriptionStatus = status, case .verified(let renewalInfo) = highestStatus?.renewalInfo { print(mySubcriptionStatus.state) // StoreKit.Product.SubscriptionInfo.RenewalState(rawValue: 3))-- inBillingRetry. print(renewalInfo.expirationReason) // nil print(renewalInfo.gracePeriodExpirationDate) // nil } } catch { print(error) } }

Hello! I am wondering what the best way is to fetch previous introductory offers from the App Store Connect API. I have tried hitting this endpoint: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appstoreconnectapi/list_all_introductory_offers_for_a_subscription which seemed to only return the current, active introductory offer. I am looking to gather all introductory offers for my subscription products, including the following attributes: Start date End date Customer price Territory Currency Introductory offer mode Number of periods Thank you.

Hi there, I am here to ask for help regarding IAP and Apple Pay. So in my app, there are user two types, fan and athlete where a fan can ask the user text questions, or video questions or can directly tip the athlete(note: these questions are under the name of tip). I was using Stripe for payment but Apple rejected that and forced us to implement IAP by mentioning that as the question/tip is video/text based so you have to remove Stripe and use IAP. Therefore, I am here to ask whether I should use IAP or Apple Pay because in IAP we have limitations for predefined products while what if a fan wanted to tip a dynamic amount (here can we use Apple Pay for tipping) Please share your thoughts on what is the best way to tip while asking a question and free tip. One thing more to add we want to implement a bidding feature in the app as well where fans can bid dynamic amounts that IAP lacks). Thank you

We are doing a Swift Package to manage our iap with storekit 2. This packages also contains the unit tests for the code. (as well as all the required files .storekit, certificate, ...) when calling SKTestSession.buyProduct(identifier: options:) we catch an error : Error Domain=SKErrorDomain Code=0 "(null)" Note when trying exactly the same code but in a project instead of a package that works perfectly. Any idea what could it be? The code is really simple : var testSession: SKTestSession! override func setUpWithError() throws { testSession = try SKTestSession(configurationFileNamed: "Products") } func testExample() async throws { do { let productID = "nonConsumable.crystal.tier1" try await testSession.buyProduct(identifier: productID) } catch { XCTFail("An error occured during purchase : \(error)") } } }

I wrote a StoreKit unit test and set the renewal rate to .oneRenewalEveryTwoSeconds for the test session. But now my App expires and renews every two seconds when running normally, even though the StoreKit Configuration file is set to "Real Time." Changing it to anything else doesn't change the renewal rate. I've tried cleaning the build folder. If, however, I set my SKTestSession explicitly to .realTime and run the test again, then my app behaves. However, again, it doesn't matter what I set the Configuration Settings to. Anyone know where this information is stored?

Hello, I'm curious to know if in the situation that I build an app where people can book and pay for vacations (Hotel + Flights) and I have suppliers for those vacations making the payments to the hotels and the airlines, the booking would be subject to an in app purchases tax? Basically apps like booking.com, airbnb, expedia etc... does Apple let this kind of apps to use their own payment processor like stripe?

Hello! I would like to add In-app purchase capability to my visionOS app. However, unlike in iOS project, I can't add this capability to visionOS project. On Apple's In-app purchase page there is an indicator that it is supported by Apple Vision Pro. Please help me on how can I add paid subscriptions to my visionOS app. Best regards, Vladyslav.
