After a user completes a purchase through either google play billing or through the revenue cat sdk does the google play purchases receipt get sent to revenue cat to be displayed in some dashboard?Is there any documentation about the revenue cat sdk reading/observing the google play purchase receipts?

We want to be able to get our users’ cards on file without actually charging them for their subscriptions just yet.In further details:We show our users a monthly & yearly subscription option. And we tell them we wont charge them just yet, but we will down the line Once they opt in, we want to be able to grab their card at that time (along with the plan they selected) Once we’re ready to start charging them, we want to use the card we got on file to begin their subscriptionIs something like this possible on revenuecat?

Hi!I just migrated to RevenueCat and for some reason iOS users show $0 in revenue, any idea why this happening?  

Hi RevenueCat, I have completed the instructions to the “T” on this page:https://docs.revenuecat.com/docs/creating-play-service-credentials and have made a json key correctly. No matter what I do, I am still receiving an error such as the one in the image below:  My service credentials start out like this: :”my-app-service-credentials@pc-api- “The “pc” in there is no problem, right? What should I do now to fix the problem since the credentails are not working and seem like they have never even been created? **This error is happening on revenueCat. I have not done anything with the android app.**  Than

ContextFor subscriptions, we have bothA Node.js webhook that updates subscription info for a user in our database. iOS code fetching the latest purchase info with the revenue cat API. This code checks the user’s expiration date on start up. Ideally, we can remove the iOS code and just rely on the webhook, but this is not acceptable as explained below... ProblemIt seems that the event data have incorrect subscription expiration dates. In contrast, the API is giving us the right date. We saw this issue while looking at the dashboard events.This user’s last received a “PRODUCT_CHANGE” event. They switched from a monthly to annual subscription using a promotion code, giving them a month trial ending on Sep 12, 202

Hi, We have configured our Slack webhook to post subscription related events in our Slack server.We would really like for this message to display some attributes related to the user.Is there any way we can customize the payload sent to Slack? Kind regards,Johan

Do I have to create Service Account credentials JSON for each app individually on Google Play or just create one for all apps and use it each time?

Hi,I had a non-consumable Unlock All purchase in my app before moving to RevenueCat. I’ve had iOS users who purchased it before RevenueCat integration. Let’s call these users User from the past. Recently I moved to RevenueCat and created a new auto-renewable purchase (Subscription Unlock All) using RevenueCat code and removed the old code responsible for non-consumable purchase from my app completely (including the old restore functions that worked). The app has a restore button and it calls Purchases.shared.restoreTransactions for restoring Subscription Unlock All purchases, it works correctly. Now, I would like to Unlock All Features and add the ability to restore purchases for every user from the past who purchased a non-consumable Unlock All purchase before RevenueCat integration. THE QUESTION:Am

Our current project contains 22 offerings (all of them have products inside), but when we call Purchases.sharedInstance.getOfferingsWith() offerings object contains only 20 items (same thing happens on both Android and iOS).Is this correct behaivour, because we cannot find this 20 items limit in documentation?

I have two different project one of them uses revenuecat and the other with Qonversion.in the  revcat project in-app purchases goes to Xcode environment and the Conversion one goes to Sandbox environment. Devices are the same.Sand box testers are the same.I don't know what is wrong with my revcat project .any recommendation would be appreciated. 

We were wondering what kind of experiments were possible. We wanted to make 2 different subscription screens (different designs and layout) and use RC experiments to determine which one converts better. How would we go about this? Is this even good practice and a valid use case for RC experiments?

Is it possible to test an iOS subscription before the subscription product gets approved by Apple? This is my first time submitting to the app store, I got denied because they said my app did not function when the “purchase” button is pressed. But I am wondering, how would the in-app purchase pop-up be able to display without the product being approved?For example, if I push it to testflight, no one would be able to click the button because it is not an approved product, and I believe that is what they are testing when approving the app.

Hello!I have a subscription with grace period 14 days, if this subscription is expired and now on grace period i get this JSON:[app1800_sub_personal_monthly] => Array ( [billing_issues_detected_at] => 2021-08-27T08:29:54Z [expires_date] => 2021-09-12T08:29:50Z [grace_period_expires_date] => 2021-09-12T08:29:50Z [is_sandbox] => [original_purchase_date] => 2021-07-27T08:29:52Z [ownership_type] => PURCHASED [period_type] => normal [purchase_date] => 2021-07-27T08:29:50Z [store] => app_store [unsubscribe_detected_at] => )

Hi guys! I do subscriptions for my app. A have 2 entitlements (Standard, Premium). And I have 3 periods for every entitlement (1 month, 6 month, 1 year). There are 6 products at all. As I understand, a can't use default packages for this, and I need to create custom package for every product? For example: place “1 month standard” and “1 month advanced” in to default MONTHLY package. Because now, I created 6 custom packages. Am I doing everything right? Can you give me some details about this please.

This is the apple reason We noticed that your Kids Category app includes analytics, advertising and collects, transmits, or has the ability to share personal information or device information with third parties. Specifically:- Your app includes third-party analytics or third-party advertising with the ability to collect, transmit or share identifiable information, including, for example, IDFA. We found that your app references the ASIdentifierManager API, which provides access to a user's IDFA, in the following location(s) in your binary:• /System/Library/Frameworks/AdSupport.framework/AdSupportIt would be appropriate to remove all instances of “ASIdentifierManager” from your app, even if they are not utilized in your app's functionality. after looking in my app directory and looking for any Ads support framework/library I found that Revenuecat support Ads how can i disable collecting idfa

The question is for an iOS app -  My setup is that I am using my backend to give access to “Pro” features through the API and I am using Revenue cat to process the payment. Sign up comes after the purchase is made and it is optional to the user. I want to understand how I should give access from the backend to users who are making a purchase but do not sign up? This approach should also work when the user comes back and restores purchase after uninstalling the app. 

Hello,I’m testing out revenuecat and tried sending receipt data from the iOS app store for a couple of customers using the receipts endpoint. Revenuecat showed the transactions for the imported users correctly but the total spent for the imported customers shows as zero. I even tried adding the “price” property on the REST request to no avail. Know what might be up? I need to migrate data for a few 1000 customers and so its critical that it work correctly. Thanks

I have a problem with my app. As long as I installed the app to my iPhone with Xcode, everything was working (Apart from the fact that having configured the products from the Xcode file and not from the App Store, in the end the purchase failed). Now that I uploaded the app to testflight, when purchasing a product I can’t even see the iOS purchase popup. Could It be the fact that there is no longer the Xcode purchases configuration file and that the one on the App Store hasn’t been approved yet? I can I fix that? 

Google Play sent a reminder: “Starting on August 2, 2021, all new apps must use Billing Library version 3 or newer. By November 1, 2021, all updates to existing apps must use Billing Library version 3 or newer.”Does RevenueCat already use the Billing Library v3 or is there anything we would need to do to make sure the transition is smooth? Thanks!

I am trying to look at when users start a free trial cancel the subscription. I exported a customer list from RevenueCat and have been looking at the data in Excel. In Excel the columns that I am looking at are  trial_opt_out_at and trial_start_at. Does anyone know how to convert the values in these columns to dates from the numbers that they are set. Currently the values in these columns look like - 1629693003000. 

HI there! I’m hoping you will able to help. Here is the error Item Unavailable, id the correct, in the google account all is also ok. It’s closed testing, and also testers, devices and so on is ok. The app got prices from the cat, but still it doesn’t work. We also can’t make a test purchase via cat and didn’t seen any tries in the sandbox dashboard.  Maybe someone know what to do nextThanks in advance 

We’re currently migrating to RevenueCat. In the past we had many products on Android/iOS mainly for pricing tests where user subscribed to. We don’t offer these products anymore but of course these users should still have access to the PRO features.Do we still need to add all these legacy products (subscriptions) in RevenueCat too, so we can find out they have a valid subscription? Or do we only have to set up the products that we actually want offer in the app?And will this affect analytics somehow when products are not added?BestJanis 

Here is the Setup: 1.  App is a race car game where user has different cars they build.  2. User can buy new parts for each of their cars. 3.  Upgrades are onetime, non-expiring purchases.  4.  One upgrade is for one car only.      4.a.  if user wants to upgrade tires for two cars...the user makes two purchases of product ID "nrp_tire_lvl3_199" User Scenario: 1. User is managing two cars (A, B, and C).2. User wants to upgrade tires on car B.3. User makes purchase of "nrp_tire_lvl3_199"4. Our server receives the Web hook notification of the purchase.   ??? How can we tell the server which of the User's cars to apply the upgrade to?  How can the Server know to apply the upgrade to Car B? 

Ok, so I read and think I understand how the Restore Settings work, but have some further clarification settings.  We’re in the process of migrating to a new backend where all users will need to sign up again with a new system where they will get user IDs. These user IDs are the ones that will not be recycled changed. We don’t want a scenario where users can log out of their new accounts, create a new one, restore subscriptions (mint a new subscriber), then give those credentials to someone else or what have you. That’s why we want to have the Block Restores enabled, but we aren’t sure how to handle the migration process from the old version of our app to the new one. What I was thinking - first, we don’t enable this Block Restores Setting and let everyone migrate to the new login system, restore purchases if they need. Our old version is also using the old SDK and we aren’t calling reset user ID anywhere - what will happen when we upgrade to the new SDK

We have enabled a/b experiments and are testing what experiment performs best. We also have analytics around what SKUs users are seeing. We’ve noticed that our default variant is seen 70% of the time and variant B 30%. It’s hard to tell if this is a RevenueCat issue or whether our users are that skewed in terms of who is looking at the paywall. Any ideas on why we would see such an uneven distribution?
