Hello:

We have subscriptions setup in our app, but we want to add a consumable product to give the user the same entitlement that he will get when subscription for 1 month, but this time it will be for 1 day only.

is there a way to do this in Revenuecat, and is there a place in the documentation that we can follow to setup this kind of process?

Our app uses Firebase as backend, and Revenuecat Firbase extension is added to the project

Thank you

There is currently no way to do this natively with RevenueCat. However, there are a couple of ways that you could achieve this with RevenueCat and Firebase together. They all revolve around handling purchase events. The RevenueCat Firebase integration writes events to the selected event collection, so you would create a listener that listens to any new events in that collection, and then handle them.

If you receive an INITIAL_PURCHASE event for one of the consumable products that you have set up, you unlock the entitlement. There are a number of ways to do this, but my recommendation would be to make a REST API call to the RevenueCat Grant a Promotional Entitlement (revenuecat.com) endpoint. You will need to generate a secret API key to make this REST API call, and you can create a one-day promotional entitlement for the affected customer using this API.

Let me know if this helps or you have any questions!
