I am handling the buy subscription with this function const handleBuySubscription = async (productId) => { try { await requestSubscription({ sku: productId, }); setLoading(false); } catch (error) { setLoading(false); if (error instanceof PurchaseError) { errorLog({ message: [${error.code}]: ${error.message}, error }); } else { errorLog({ message: "handleBuySubscription", error }); } } }; but the requestSubscription({ sku: productId, }) does not return anything, and it is stuck at await

We are currently integrating In-App Purchases for our app and have configured App Store Server Notifications (v2) in the Sandbox environment. During testing, we observed the following issue: When a transaction is cancelled, declined, or pending (e.g., Ask to Buy flows or authorization pending), No App Store Server Notification is sent to our webhook endpoint. We only receive webhook events where the status is "purchased". This becomes a critical problem for us because our backend must accurately track transaction states including failed and pending purchases, especially for wallet top-up use cases. Additionally, we tried mocking failed transactions (via Xcode local environment and turning off In-App Purchases from Developer Settings) to simulate a technical failure scenario. Even in these cases, no webhook notification was received when the purchase failed server-side. Is it expected behavior in Sandbox that only successful transactions ("purchased") trigger webhooks? Are failed or pending transactions suppressed in Sandbox intentionally? Will webhook behavior be different in Production (i.e., will we receive webhook notifications for failures there)? Is there any extra configuration or entitlement needed to fully test failure scenarios via webhooks in Sandbox?

I am trying to launch a PWA as an application on App Store, and got rejected cause of In-App Purchases. Application is about content generation and selling subscriptions for premium content. So thats why needed to implement In-App Purchases. I have created wrapper via PWABuilder. And it is looking great so far, now my question is about How can I implement In-App Purchases in the bundle which is already created. Any suggestions will be appreciated. More clarification:- I have that product running on Web right now, we have integrated Stripe for payment handling for subscriptions. If there is nothing we can do for In-App Purchases then we have to make purchases on website and then user will be able to experience the changes. We tried that, but then we got rejected for showing locked premium content on user's feed. Also can't show any CTA or Subscribe text or button.

I'm considering developing an app where users can create their own subscription plans by freely setting their prices, similar to YouTube's membership feature. I understand that in-app purchases must be used to unlock features within the app. With that in mind, I searched for APIs to enable this functionality but couldn't find relevant information. When I contacted Apple directly, they mentioned that they couldn't provide specific answers unless the app is under review. If anyone has knowledge about the following points, I would greatly appreciate your response: Is it possible to implement a feature similar to YouTube's membership using in-app purchase APIs? If it's not feasible with in-app purchases, is it allowed to use external payment services like Stripe?

We have received reports from users that their in-app purchases suddenly appear as unpurchased. We would like to know the cause of this issue. Our implementation does not use a server; purchases are determined solely on the client side. These reports often occur after updating the app version, but we have been unable to reproduce the issue in our development environment.

We're experiencing an unusual issue with SKProductsRequest in our app's in-app purchases. Despite confirming that all our product IDs are correct, the invalidProductIdentifiers property of SKProductsResponse sometimes contains all the requested product IDs. Here are the specifics: The issue occurs randomly and is not persistent. For instance, around 2024-12-26 -8.0 01:06:04, this problem occurred 3 times in quick succession. The didFailWithError method of SKRequestDelegate is not triggered, reporting no errors. Some users report that after encountering this issue, it resolves itself after about an hour. However, other users have reported this problem persisting for several days. We have repeatedly verified the correctness of our product IDs. Given the intermittent nature of the problem, we suspect this might be an issue on the App Store server side. We're looking for suggestions to resolve or mitigate this issue to improve the reliability of in-app purchases in our application. Has anyone encountered a similar issue? Or does anyone have suggestions that could help us further diagnose and resolve this problem?

I have been struggling to test the IAP response but it is returning empty. I am now in the very beginning of one app, and I don't want to submit the contacts and banking and tax stuff that early. are these necessary for even testing IAP results locally? I think it does not make sense if I have to.

Hey everyone, We're looking for the best way to handle App Store Server Notifications in our development setup and would appreciate some guidance. Our Setup: We use a single App Store Connect account for development, which supports multiple environments (e.g., staging1, staging2). Our production app lives in a separate account, so that's not an issue. The Challenge: We have only one configurable sandbox notification URL. This makes it difficult to route notifications to the correct development server (staging1 vs. staging2 vs developments) when a sandbox event occurs. We're considering using a proxy server to catch all notifications and then forward them to the appropriate environment. However, we're not sure how to determine the correct destination. Our Questions: What's the recommended approach for managing a single sandbox notification URL across multiple development environments? If a proxy is the best method, which parameter in the responseBodyV2 payload should we use to route the notification? How can we differentiate between our various dev environments? Is it possible to add custom properties to the App Store Server Notification V2 body to facilitate routing? Any advice or best practices you've implemented would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, I'm attempting to use StoreKit 2 and SwiftUI to add a tip jar to my iOS app. I've successfully added consumable IAPs for each of my tip sizes, and used ProductView to show these on my tip jar screen. However, I am at a loss on how to do the following things: How and when do I finish the consumable IAP transaction? I see the finish() function in the documentation, but I am not sure how I can call it given that ProductView is handling the purchase for me (I have no access to a Transaction object). How can I track the amount of consumable IAPs the user has purchased across all their devices? I want to show the user the amount of money they have tipped in total. I have added SKIncludeConsumableInAppPurchaseHistory to my Info.plist and set it to YES as suggested here: https://forums.developer.apple.com/forums/thread/687199 This is my first time using StoreKit 2 (until now, I was using StoreKit 1), so I would really appreciate any advice and guidance you can provide. Thanks!

Hello everyone! We are observing a significant number of failures in the fetch of the products with StoreKit1, meaning that in a completely random way, some product identifiers are considered invalid in the response that we receive from Apple, and after some minutes these products are considered once again valid. The issue started on Thursday 04/24 around 12.00 am (UTC + 02.00) and from our dashboard we can clearly see the trend of these failures has some spikes at precise times. I am attaching a view that we use for monitoring purposes showing this trend, considering the data of this week. We are noticing this problem on multiple developer accounts and on multiple apps, which is leading us to think it could be an issue in the Apple backend processing the request. In our case, the apps are not launched correctly until all the products are fetched, and therefore the impact of this problem is very high. Is anyone experiencing something similar or do you have logs which allows you to identify such issues? The issue happens only in production, while in debug and TestFlight environment everything works well. Thank you for your support

Hello Apple Support Team, We're a developer team that has created an app with subscription-based features, and we've been using App Store Server Notifications to receive updates about user subscription status changes. I'm reaching out to inquire about potential modifications to the App Store Server Notifications approach that might have improved notification delivery times for my app. So on our appstore app, when a user purchases a subscription, the apple server notifications reach our server and send us the complete detail of that user’s purchase for eg he upgraded or downgraded etc. And then based on the data we receive from app store server notifications, we save it in our database, along with updating the users subscription table in the database. Previously, we experienced delays in receiving the real time notifications from apple on our server, sometimes taking a few minutes, while other times they would arrive immediately. And because of this issue, the users faced delay in seeing their subscription updates, as our db was updated only after the app store server notification reached our server. However, recently, we've noticed a significant improvement, and notifications are now being delivered still in real-time, but without any noticeable delays. I'm wondering if Apple has made any changes to the App Store Server Notifications system that might have resolved the delay issue. Could you please confirm if any modifications were made in 2025, specifically from January onwards, that might have improved notification delivery times? Additionally, I'd like to know if these changes apply to both sandbox testing and production environments. If possible, could you please provide more information about the changes or direct me to a resource that might explain the updates? I'd appreciate your assistance in confirming this information, and I'm looking forward to hearing back from you.

I implemented consumable in-app purchases in an iPhone app using ProductView(). When I tap the payment button in ProductView(), I am taken to the payment screen and once the payment is completed the next code seems to be executed, so there doesn't seem to be a problem, but if I tap the payment button in ProductView() again, the next code is executed without taking me to the payment screen. This means that a single payment can be made multiple times. Can someone help? ProductView(id: "geminiOneMatch") .productViewStyle(.compact) .padding() .onInAppPurchaseCompletion { product, result in if case .success(.success(_)) = result { // 課金が成功した場合の処理 gemini.addOneMatch(amount: 20) popUpVM.geminiOneMatchPopUp = false dataManageVM.generateRespons(locale: locale) } }

The application is developed with Xamarin Framework and it is live now. The customer installed the app and purchased the annual subscription. And for some reason, they uninstall and reinstall the application on the same device. Now user wants to restore the subscription. In the application, there is an option to Restore the subscription. But restore API not return purchase details. But when clicking the subscription button instead of restoring the subscription, it says you subscribed to this plan". is there any possibility of not getting VerifyRecipt even after a successful purchase?

I enter the payment wall, there it takes more or less 3 to 4 minutes to show the plans, when I select the monthly plan the loader is shown and from there the pop up to make the purchase in sandbox does not appear, I have waited until a maximum of 50 minutes and it is not shown, I go back and close the app I do the same steps and I am still there, without showing the pop up. Doing this same process in xcode, everything happens immediately without any interruption.

Hi All, We are trying to integrate Promotional Offer in our app, We have a React Native app and are using react-native-iap for handling our in app purchases, as per the documentation we are generating signature in our BE and passing the proper details to the function as well, but for subscription request which have offer applied we are getting the apple pop up properly as well with offer details but when trying to subscribe it gives us SKErrroDomain: 12, for subscription without applying offer the subscription goes through but when we apply the offer we get the above error. Our app is currently in Development Stages and has not been sent for review sam for our subscription plans as well. Please let me know what could be the probable cause for this and help us resolve the issue. This is the code snippet of ours for the front end : export const buySubscription = async (subscriptionData: any) => { try { if (subscriptionData.offer_id) { const response = await getSubscriptionSignature( subscriptionData.productId, subscriptionData.offer_id, ); const offerData = response?.data; const offer = { identifier: offerData?.offer_id, keyIdentifier: offerData?.key_id, nonce: offerData?.nonce, signature: offerData?.signature, timestamp: Number(offerData?.timestamp), }; await requestSubscription({ sku: subscriptionData.productId, withOffer: offer, }); } else { await requestSubscription({ sku: subscriptionData.productId }); } } catch (err) { logger.error('Subscription error: ' + JSON.stringify(err)); throw err; } }; and 
from my python Backend which generates the signature:

Hi, I am trying to obtain the subscription expiry date or purchase date from server using Storekit2 for my project. I have an account which is already having an active subscription but it still says no purchase found. Thanks

Our macOS app has one in-app purchase (IAP) implemented using StoreKit 1. It works for us and beta testers but App Review get SKErrorDomain Error Code 0 / ASDErrorDomain Code 500 / AMSErrorDomain 305 on first attempt to make the in-app purchase. However, the purchase succeeds at second attempt. We've looked through our entire IAP related code and App Store Connect setup but can’t find the reason. It's a standard implementation: LegacyPaymentQueueObserver for SKPaymentQueue observation. AppDelegate for initiation of payment queue observation on app launch LegacyStoreKitPurchasableProduct for initiating a purchase and listening for the result LegacyStoreKitProductsRequester for how we load the product before user can make in-app purchase. It happens this way: PreviewResultsViewModelcalls loadProducts()on an instance of StoreKitPurchaseManager, which asks an instance of LegacyStoreKitProductsRequesterto requestProducts(forIdentifiers:) Any guidance to resolve this would be appreciated.

Hi Apple Developer Team, I'm looking to confirm some technical details regarding the pre-order flow and App Store receipt handling. Specifically, I have the following questions: Q1: After a user installs an app via pre-order and launches it for the first time, will a valid App Store receipt be available immediately via [[NSBundle mainBundle] appStoreReceiptURL]? Are there any known cases where the receipt might be missing or invalid, requiring a manual refresh (e.g., via SKReceiptRefreshRequest)? Q2: Is the pre-order flow currently supported in the sandbox environment? Specifically, is it possible to simulate pre-ordering an app and installing it in a sandbox or TestFlight environment, in order to test receipt generation and related logic? https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appstorereceipts/responsebody/receipt Q3: The receipt field in the App Store receipt structure is marked as deprecated. Is it still acceptable to use this field for validating receipts? Has Apple announced any timeline or system version in which this field will be fully removed or unsupported?

I'm using code similar to the following to conditionally show the SubscriptionStoreView and the .storeButton(.visible, for: .restorePurchases) modifier is used to allow the user to restore an existing subscription. How can I listen for events that would allow me to close this view once the subscription is restored? The .onInAppPurchaseCompletion closure does not handle this and it also appears that listening for results in Transaction.currentEntitlements also doesn't handle the fact that a subscription is restored. Any guidance on how to determine if the subscription has been restored would be greatly appreciated. Finally, how can this be tested effectively in both TestFlight and in Xcode with the simulator. if subscriptionManager.subscription == .none { SubscriptionStoreView(groupID: "1234567") { SubscriptionMarketingView(transparency: false) .containerBackground(for: .subscriptionStoreFullHeight) { GradientBackground() } } .backgroundStyle(.clear) .storeButton(.visible, for: .restorePurchases) .storeButton(.visible, for: .redeemCode) .onInAppPurchaseCompletion { product, result in Task { await subscriptionManager.entitlements() } } }
