General Questions

I filed this issue in the github flutter repo, but was informed that no human will look at it because “the template was changed”.The template is entirely irrelevant to the content of the ticket, because the issue is related to the way the project itself is maintained.Please do not ignore issues just because the flutter doctor output is not attached, there are plenty of cases where this is just a waste of everybody’s time.

I was looking at some transaction detail for our account.  We began an App Store price change from $0.99 to $2.99 on Jan-9-2022, we preserved pricing for existing subscribers.How is the following detail data possible?  The purchased_at date is Aug-3-2021.  All subsequent data for app_user renewals also are showing $2.99 so RC revenue is overstated for this app_user it seems.{  "app_id": "appa8d87477cb",  "app_user_id": "$RCAnonymousID:b8bfb41443d54a4ebb9c35866e17efbb",  "country_code": "US",  "currency": "USD",  "entitlement_ids": null,  "environment": "PRODUCTION",  "event_timestamp_ms": 1628006356000,  "expiration_at_ms": 1630684756000,  "is_family_share": false,  "is_trial_conversion": true,  "offer_code": null,  "price": 2.99,  "price_in_purchased_currency": 2.99,  "product_id": "me_mo.99_1",  "purchased_at_ms": 1628006356000,  "store": "APP_STORE",  "takehome_perc

On the dashboard, there’s a filter for number of total_renewals and can be exported as CSV, but how can that be read from API or webhook?The webhook only sends the data of the action, which is fine. But maybe the get subscriber end point should also send this info back.For now the workaround seems to be to play around with the dates, which is definitely not the best.

Hi! We just launched our new in-app purchase, so it’s only been live for a few days. A customer just let us know that they successfully started a subscription (they confirmed with an app store recipt and screenshot of the active subscription in the app store), but the service wasn’t activated. Looking at their customer profile, there are no indications of a subscription started in the customers history.We have had other customers activating the subscription the last days, so it looks like it’s working fine.What could possibly have gone wrong here? Troubleshooting tips?

Hello, I have a question regarding expired subscriptions: When a user resubscribes, a RENEWAL event is send.In our system, we want to track subscriptions individually, meaning every new subscription would be reflected in a new subscription object on our side. Currently we try to use the original_transaction_id as some kind of external id of a subscription.As far as I can tell, RevenueCat doesn’t really have a concept of “individual” subscriptions, RevenueCat really only cares about the current subscription status of a user and (I guess) there will always be only one single INITIAL_PURCHASE event, right? Meaning if a user buys a subscription, then cancels and then resubscribes two years later, it would still be a “renewal”.Are there any best practices for handling each subscription individually? Thanks so far!  

Hello!We don’t want to force users to subscribe, so we’d like to give a trial to a user using our own mechanism without showing an in-app subscription popup.The flow would be:User signed up and received 7 days trial After 7 days we show a paywallWould that work? Is it allowed by Apple?  Thanks,Stan

First time user trying to setup RevenueCat.  I am attempting to use `react-native-purchases` in an Expo app build using a dev-client approach (https://medium.com/@jonathan.payet/expo-in-app-purchase-for-managed-app-cdcd643de28d).  I have it getting Offerings successfully in sandbox mode for iOS, but the result is empty on Android: if (Platform.OS === 'ios') { await Purchases.setup("appl_myactualkey"); } else if (Platform.OS === 'android') { await Purchases.setup(`goog_myactualkey`); } else { console.error('Unknown OS type - Purchases will be broken!'); } try { const offerings = await Purchases.getOfferings(); console.error("RevenueCat: ", offerings); // const products = await Purc

I cannot find a clear way to implement the IOS promo codes inside React Native surely, I followed the documentation here : https://docs.revenuecat.com/docs/ios-subscription-offers I tried both offer codes and the promotional offers the promotional offers could not be used, it fired error,this offer is ineligible for the current userlooks these promotional offers cannot be used for the new users so I had to switch to the offer codes, I tried to open the sheetPurchase.presentCodeRedemptionSheet(); it does not show anything, neither give me any errors to know what’s happening   Apple forcing us to use their promotional system to pass the app review and publishing to the storeMy client application is delay

Flutter: 2.2.3Plugin: purchases_flutter: ^3.4.5Device: iOS simulator (14.5) Using Flutter + StoreKit does not work. `getOfferings()` always return `null` with empty products. I already made sure that bundle ID, product IDs, API key, and StoreKit public cert are correctly set. The weird thing is, if I do this in a native iOS app, I can fetch the offerings and products. After installing the sample native iOS app, I tried running the Flutter app without changing the StoreKit public cert, it can fetch the offerings. Which is really weird. I already tried creating a clean Flutter app with StoreKit, but it still fails to get the offerings. It will only work if I install my sample native iOS app, then run the Flutter version. I don't have any actual device with me, so simulator is the only way I can proceed with my task. Any idea on why StoreKit in Flutter does not work?

Hello!In my team we are wondering if we can get rid of Revenuecat client SDK’s and only use the REST API. Is it possible? 

Hi, I am new to programming and RevenueCat.  My IOS app has a subscription purchase option and the user was able to make a purchase, which I think shows up in Revenue Cat but I am not 100% sure as I don’t know how to directly relate the RevenueCat app ID to the user.  Fortunately, at the present time I do not have a large number of users so I believe I have identified the user correctly. However, when the user logs and the app queries  Purchases.shared.purchaserInfo, the entitlements comes back as nil.   I have searched the documentation and can’t understand what I have done wrong and am at a loss of where to start troubleshooting.  Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

The subscriber API is great and straightforward, but I am looking for an API to get more general per Project metrics and data such as MMR and etc. I have not found that yet.

I have a few subscription apps and noticed today that the financial information in Google is showing a lot more activity than revenue cat,The money that has been paid and showing in revenue cat is way less than the value within google play.I have not even looked where the money is… but its worrying that revenue cat’s status page is not showing any of the google financials.Anyone having any issues like this, it makes me think why am I using revenue cat as my earning are not correct?

Hi Team,We have setup 3 apps in our RevenueCat project. Apple, Google and Stripe. If we need to call the "Get or Create Subscriber" REST API, which API key we need to use. The app specific public API keys or the internal API key. Also, if a user has a play store subscription and if we try to fetch the user details using the Apple app public API key or vice versa will it work. Or is it a good practice to do so. Need help on this query. Awaiting your revert on the same. 

How does RevenueCat handle the situation when a user that has an active subscription for a given entitlement intends to purchase a “lifetime subscription” - i.e. a non-consumable product that is attached to the same entitlement?Does this automatically stop/cancel the running subscription? Is there any special implementation needed to prevent that a user purchases lifetime access but at the same time has a running subscription?I would appreciate any input on this (or references to documentation) since I have not been able to find an answer anywhere so far. Thanks in advance!(Asking for an iOS application)

Recently we have had a number of users contact us because they’re unable to purchase a subscription: After a bit of investigation is appears that RevenueCat SDK is returning:{ message: "There was a problem with the Play Store.", readable_error_code: "StoreProblemError", readableErrorCode: "StoreProblemError", underlyingErrorMessage: "Error updating purchases.", debugMessage: ErrorCode: ERROR.:}When we look up these users in RevenueCat we see no activity.When we look up these users in Google Play Store’s Order Management they all show cancelled purchases:We are using: react-nati

Hi there, is it possible to purchase a promotional offer on the product that a user is already subscribed to using purchaseDiscountedPackage, or does the promotional offer have to be on a different product?I tried purchasing a promotional offer on the same product in production and although it appeared to go through without any errors, my subscription did not change and I didn’t see any webhooks in RC or any email confirmation from apple. For a different product it did work as expected.Just checking in case I am missing something.Thanks,Lydia

Way back when, my app was a $1 purchase to download from App Store and Google Play Store. Is there any way that RevenueCat can report if a user purchased my app?

I have read in the docs that Reveuecat currently only supports IMMEDIATE_WITH_TIME_PRORATION for android upgrades/downgrades. However I wanted to clarify exactly what this means. If I were to use a different proration mode is it only the revenue/pricing that is reported incorrectly or would the expiry/renewal dates for the subscription/entitlement also be wrong?For background we use the revenuecat event webhooks to issue users with our own premium entitlement and so we would need an accurate expiry/renewal date for the subscription to be passed in the webhook.Many thanks in advance,Lydia

Hey,We are looking into the available ‘Restore Behavior’ configurations from RevenueCat, and I believe based on our business requirements we need to use the ‘Block Purchases’ option. Our app requires an account to make a subscription purchase, and requires the user to be logged into that account to use any subscription entitled features. One concern we have is how the ‘Block Purchases’ configuration behaves when a subscription renewal occurs. The ‘Restore Transactions’ behaviour makes sense, as this would require the customer to log into the account that initially made the subscription purchase. But what happens if the logged in user at the time of renewal is different than the logged in user who initiated the subscription? We are currently still configured to ‘Alias (legacy)’, but from our initial testin

Hello,I am currently using revenueCat to handle IAP.My app is working well on android platform. However, when I am trying to use it on IOS, I am unable to restoreTransactions and I am also unable to perform any transactionsI have followed the instructions here: https://docs.revenuecat.com/docs/flutter and also set up API Keys.I can connect to my Appstore and load the required in-app purchase.However, when I click on it and fill in the login details of the testers account (Sandbox Testers). Nothing happens. Sorry for the questions, I have been fixing this issue for several days and I cannot find any clues to fix it. I am also using the following code, but I am unable to restore anyt

While testing out my integration I received a “TRANSFER” web hook for Stripe. The transferred to/from fields were set my two most recent test user IDs, but I’m still unsure exactly what triggered this to happen?

how to get latest receipt info in webhook after verification done by revenuecat?

Hello, I have a problem with implementation of restore purchases (I am using RevenueCat anonymous ID’s). When I run Purchases.shared.restoreTransactions in Xcode it returns right subscription status but when I upload it in TestFlight it stops working. I am signed with the same sandbox account. Any ideas what I am doing wrong? Thanks in advance 

We've just released an update to our approved app in the App Store (iOS). However, when attempting to subscribe to an IAP, the value from the store is returning $0.00, and the trial is not showing despite everything being set up correctly in App Store Connect.We have changed the version number for the app, along with the build number, which seems to be the only thing that's changed for iOS.Has anyone run into this before? We've been rejected by Apple because the subscription price does not match that advertised in the app.Any help greatly appreciated!
