I am looking into how to support discounted subscriptions in our app similar to how we provide them in our web based product. We have a few different scenarios that I am looking to support, specifically:Giving an introductory offer of 20% off for 3 months based on signup criteria Giving an introductory offer of 20% off for 6 months based on different signup criteria Giving a free month of a subscriptionI am looking at https://docs.revenuecat.com/docs/ios-subscription-offers to try to figure out the best option for me. It looks like Introductory Offers is what we want for the first two bullet points since we can automatically apply it in-app at initial purchase time without the customer needing to enter an offer code. However, the notes beside intro offers says “SDK applies offer to purchases automatically”, does that mean I can’t control which of the two intro prices I offer? Is that a misunderstanding of intro offers on my part perhaps? Basically, based on server side information, I w
I’m using react native to fetch the packages and looking at the logs: const offerings = await Purchases.getOfferings(); const packages = offerings.all["default"].availablePackages; console.log("Paywall Currency", packages[0].product.currency_code)Looking at the logs, the products inside the package has the price in USD. But the phone I am running the code on is set to Australia for the region of the account. I went to Settings > Account name > Media & Purchases > Country Region > Set to AustraliaAm I doing something wrong here?
I have a question about how RevenueCat outputs the price fields (price, price_in_purchased_currency) with actions that have proration. I can think of two scenarios where proration comes into effect:Android upgrades with IMMEDIATE_WITH_TIME_PRORATION iOS upgradesWhen these events occur we receive a webhook with details about the change. Does this webhook contain the full price of the new plan, or the prorated price? I am also wondering about the transactions that get exported into S3, but I’m guessing that answer is the same as the webhooks.As an example, say a users is paying $50 per month for a subscription. Half way through the billing period they upgrade to a subscription that is $100 per month. Is the `price` in the webhook going to be $75 (assuming the renewal date remains the same) or $100 (if it reports the full price of the new plan)? I’ve tried to test this out myself in Sandbox, but with the super quick renewal periods, it’s hard to say for certain what is going on.A similar
Hey RevenueCat community,I’d like to ask for some guidance related to app monetization. Is it mandatory for a subscription-based app to provide free functionality? Or an app could be paid-only with a limited free trial after which an app’s functionality is not accessible?
Testing in Sandbox we’ve encountered the following issue: Upon making a purchase on Android we see the following behavior:Play Store (on device) - Gets success confirmation PlayStore console order manager shows the order Purchase shows up on PlaySore order manager RevenueCat Dashboard has a record of that exact purchase (matching transaction_id) However there’s no record of webhook that’s being triggered for INITIAL_PURCHASE (see image above)Is this an issue with RevenueCat SDK or the RevenueCat service?Please advise
Hello,iOS users changed subscription plan but it seems the new subscription does not immediately affect their account.Customer profile shows user successfully changed their renewal preference to higher subscription plan but user’s current Entitlement has not been changed. I think the user's Entitlement will be changed on the next subscription renewal.What I want is crossgrade, users should upgrade and use new plan immediately.All of our subscription plans are in the same subscription group and subscription duration are same. It should be Crossgrading with Same Duration but I have no idea what is the problem.Please help me to solve the problem.
Hi RevCat team and community Would love some guidance around LTV calculations in the experiments feature. We’ve been doing price testing of two price points for 2+ months now, and every day we check the experiments feature it is different, wild swings between variant A and B. I would have thought now we have been through 2 monthly renewal cycles we would start to see a trend or more signal, but it is different recommendation each day. Is there a recommended time period to run an experiment? Or someone on the RevCat team that can help us analysis the results or setup our experiment differently? Thanks - love the idea behind the feature - just looking for best way to utilize it. Cheers
I am a beginner at revenuecat, i am experiencing a problem, the stats on dashboard page are not correct, the active subscription count on AppStore connect and revenue cat are not correct.Am i doing something wrong?
Hello.I was testing this service using 3 my app user account.Then I have received 8 messages as 1 order below.There are 3 app_user_ids in the messages.But the original_transaction_ids are same.

There is a way to know if the subscription has expired without doing an operation like Purchases.getPurchaserInfo ()I understand that Purchases.addPurchaserInfoUpdateListener detects when a purchase is made, or whatever but not when a subscription expires.I use Flutter.If you have any advice on how to do it I would be grateful.Thanks
We are working through our integration with Revenue Cat for in-app subscriptions. We’re planning to use webhooks to keep our database up to date with users’ entitlements. What happens if we add an entitlement to an existing subscription? Will the webhooks be called for existing users? If we update the user status with the rest API, will the new entitlements be reflected in that response? Thanks!!
I’m in the process of writing React-Native components that should display the details of a package. For this reason I am interested in knowing which fields are available on a Package object when received via an offering - so that I can model my data correctly. I have looked through the documentation and searched through community posts, but have not found what I’m looking for. Is it not available or have I just not succeeded in searching properly? I think all developers working with RevenueCat would benefit from having some kind of documentation for the shape of packages, offerings, and entitlements - so that we can code without actually accessing these data points in our projects.
I have an app on both App Store and Google Play which offers a free trial for subscription options (monthly/yearly), or a one-time lifetime in-app-purchase. The subscription options both include a free 3 day trial.For the most part, this works just fine. But some users get very upset when they downloaded the app for free and just want to try it for 3 days, but when they are presented with the paywall where they must choose a subscription in order to start the trial, they realise that they can’t actually try it without having a payment method on their Apple/Google account. Even though these users are very few, they are very loud, blasting very negative 1-star reviews. I of course answer them that this is just how App Store/Google Play works, and that we as developers must follow Apples/Googles requirements. I also added an FAQ on the paywall and website, as well as in the app store description, but it hasn’t helped.As I have understood the App Store/Google Play requirements, I MUST use
I had noticed this problem in my test app, but since it never showed up after my first try, I didn't give it any thought.Now that I have entered my production app I have noticed that the problem has recurred and therefore I am asking for help to fix it.Explanation of the problem.I state that I have tested the thing with iOS for now.When I try to purchase a renewable subscription, the first time I do it with a new device that has never purchased this subscription, after completing the purchase, the iOS window for purchase is presented to me again. If I proceed with the purchase again after all it goes smoothly. Even all future purchases have no more problems.I would like to understand if I made a mistake in the programming, where, however, I followed the example given by you to the letter, and in fact everything works perfectly after the first time.This can be unpleasant for the user since it can give the impression that he has paid twice and since mine is a subscription that automatica
As title says, does RevenueCat combine all MRR under the same account to charge a fee when it reaches a limit?
We want to export our receipts from apple so that we can import them to a new provider but revenuecat is not responding to any email and we do not know how to proceed now. Any idea?Thank You
Hello, we are integrating with a third party app that is going to pay us per use of their members, for example, each time a user opens our the app we get paid x dollars.What is the best way of implementing such a system where RevenueCat can account for the revenue?My solution would only account for access: 1. Add a promotional entitlement via REST API to these members (so they get access to the features)Is there any alternative to get the value of the payments back to RevenueCat?
