Hi,

 

How could I block a delinquent App Store / Play Store account from making a purchase again?

 

I already block the app user id in my backend, but nothing prevents the delinquent from signing up again (different email) and obtaining a new app user id.

Hi, you can’t specifically block an App Store/Play Store from making a purchase, but you can try saving the original transaction ID so you can block that too. These users could still make a new Apple/Google account, but it would put another obstacle in their way.

So, that would be something we can detect AFTER they make a purchase, not BEFORE, correct?

Yes, the user would need to first make a purchase so you can get this transaction id
