Configure In-app Purchases (iOS)

How to connect in-app purchases with App Store Connect

If your app unlocks virtual goods, features, subscriptions, or premium content, Apple requires you to use In-App Purchases (IAP).

Follow the steps below to connect your in-app purchases with App Store Connect.

Step 1: Accept the Paid Apps Agreement

• Log in to App Store Connect.

• Navigate to the Business section.

• Accept the Paid Apps Agreement.

You cannot enable in-app purchases unless the Paid Apps Agreement is accepted.

Step 2: Configure in-app purchases in App Store Connect

• In your App Store Connect account, navigate to Apps from the top menu.

• Select your app.

• From the side menu, locate In-App Purchases under Monetization.

• Click Create and select the appropriate in-app purchase type.

• Enter the Product ID generated in your AppMySite in-app purchase dashboard.

• Add a clear product name and description.

• Configure price, localization, and availability.

The Product ID entered in App Store Connect must exactly match the Product ID generated in your AppMySite dashboard.

For subscriptions (Auto-renewing or Non-renewing)

• Go to App Store Connect > Apps > Select your app.

• Under Monetization, click Subscriptions.

• Click Create to create a subscription group (optional but recommended).

• Assign a clear name to the group.

• Click Create under Subscriptions.

• Enter the Product ID generated in your AppMySite in-app purchase dashboard.

• Add a descriptive name for users.

• Configure pricing, localization, and availability.

Step 3: Configure App Store Server Notifications

To connect Apple’s servers with your app backend, you must configure server notifications.

• In your App Store Connect account, navigate to Apps and select your app.

• In the sidebar under General, click App Information.

• Scroll to App Store Server Notifications.

• In both the Production Server URL section as well as the Sandbox Server URL section, click Set Up URL.

• Paste the URL obtained from the "Server URL" field from the In-app Purchase configuration screen on AppMySite in both the sections.

• Click Save to complete.

Both Production and Sandbox Server URLs must be configured to ensure proper in-app purchase validation.
