How to use Stripe Checkout without a website

If you don't have or don't want a full website, it can be unclear on how to proceed with integrating Stripe payments alongside your existing mobile in-app purchases. This sample project demonstrates how to use Stripe Checkout and webhooks to send purchase data to RevenueCat. Once published, you’ll be able to share individual links with users that will automatically redirect to Stripe, then send the receipt back to RevenueCat once the purchase is completed.It’s recommended that you know the basics about RevenueCat and Stripe before continuing with this project. Example Use-Cases Win-back email campaigns Send individual links to expired users to re-subscribe using Stripe checkout. In this case, you’ll need to have app user IDs and email addresses paired (typically from your own auth system).   SetupThe easiest way to use this sample is by deploying to Heroku instantly with the button below.Or you can deploy by clicking this link. The following environment variables should be set bef

Option to save filters

Would love option to save a filter - e.g. longer free trial users, price tier 2. etc. We have multiple offerings, prices, and free trial tiers in App Store listings, and manually creating filters by selecting all the different offerings that fall into each category is a pain.

Accessing transactionIdentifier

If your app is using the native iOS SDK with Swift, you can access the transactionIdentifier field through the transaction object when purchasing the product. You can see more details about this in our 'Making Purchases' docs and RCTransaction object in the iOS SDK. This field is not accessible through RevenueCat's other SDKs, however, can be accessed through webhooks and ETL exports. Typically the information included with PurchaserInfo and EntitlementInfo objects is enough data for most implementations of our SDK.If you're looking for the transactionIdentifier to track consumption of consumable products, consider using RevenueCat's GET /subscribers endpoint instead. You can utilize RevenueCat's unique identifier, id, in the non-subscription object to track consumption of all your consumable products.If there are any additional use cases for utilizing the transactionIdentifier, we'd be happy to share the feedback with our team and/or find another way to help you solve what you're tryi

New community looks great!

Congratulations to all you revenue cats! I’m looking forward to this new forum.  I especially appreciated the details about when to post versus when to contact support 1 on 1.

App Tracking Transparency, iOS 14.5, and IDFA

App Tracking Transparency (ATT) is Apple's framework for requesting access to a user's IDFA. If you use any of our attribution integrations, this article will explain what you need to do to make your app compliant. What is App Tracking Transparency (ATT)?Starting in iOS 14.5, collecting the IDFA will require permission from the user. This is done by integrating Apple's AppTrackingTransparency framework in your app. How Does ATT Affect RevenueCat?RevenueCat will continue working as expected because RevenueCat doesn't depend on IDFA or collectDeviceIdentifiers to work. However, depending on the integrations or workflows you have, you may need to update your app to ask the user permission to collect the IDFA via collectDeviceIdentifiers. This section will help you figure out whether you need to integrate ATT.If any of the following apply to you, you don't need to integrate ATT:You only use integrations that don't require or rely on IDFA to work, such as Amplitude or Mixpanel. You don't mi

About data discrepancies

It’s a common issue that comes up on every single analytics platform - in one system you have 3105 active trials, on another, 5046. What’s the deal?These discrepancies are common, and can happen for a variety of reasons. This article covers why you can expect certain discrepancies between RevenueCat's analytics and other platforms, and what you can do if things don't seem right. Common Discrepancies Having a better understanding of how RevenueCat collects data and generates analytics can help a lot when comparing against other platforms. The following are the most common things to consider the vast majority of discrepancies can be attributed to. What is the source?The first thing to ask yourself when comparing analytics systems is to ask yourself, "What is the source of this data?". If the sources are different, then you should expect differences in the data as well. RevenueCat only collects data that is sent through our in-app SDKs or REST API - there's no connection to any other sour

App Rejections

App rejections are an unfortunate and dreaded aspect of launching a new app. It’s bound to happen at some point, and in the case of subscriptions and in-app purchases, it’s usually not something that you or RevenueCat can resolve.RevenueCat can’t contact Apple on your behalf and we can’t expedite the review process, but we can help you troubleshoot the rejection and work toward a resolution.If you’ve read through our docs on rejections and are still having issues, read on. Background / Review EnvironmentUnfortunately, Apple’s sandbox environment is notoriously flaky - there are regular outages and sometimes purchases can get hung up in their system. Most of the time this error is due to sandbox downtime, but you can read about all the causes for this error in our guide on error handling.Even worse is that Apple’s reviewers use this unstable environment for App Review, which can cause issues when the reviewer tests in-app purchases like subscriptions.The App Review team typically doesn’
