If you’re here, it’s probably because you’ve encountered an active issue related to Apple’s receipt verification.

RevenueCat relies upon Apple’s `verifyReceipt` endpoint which is currently facing an outage: https://developer.apple.com/system-status/

This seems to be affecting sandbox and TestFlight purchases only at this time, although Apple’s status page doesn’t mention it explicitly.

Encountering this issue? Post below ⬇️ RevenueCat isn’t able to resolve this at this time from our end, but it may help bring awareness and ease to other developers facing the same issue.

Update 2/8/23 19:20 UTC:

Customers (and me 😃) reporting things are working as expected again - post below if you’re still having trouble, seems like a slow rollout of a fix from Apple.

Update 2/8/23 17:40 UTC:

Apple’s reporting the issue is fixed, but we’re still encountering errors. Will provide another update as soon as possible.

I encountered this issue in Sandbox yesterday and still see it today. Not sure if I can start review submission because reviewers will probably see the same. I tried on two different devices and accounts. Everything was working fine before yesterday’s evening…

ERROR: 😿‼️ The receipt is not valid.

 


I can also see this. I’m in process of evaluating Revenuecat on iOS and after successful transaction in sandbox I get error:

PlatformException(8, The receipt is not valid., {readable_error_code: INVALID_RECEIPT, message: The receipt is not valid., userCancelled: false, underlyingErrorMessage: The receipt is not valid., readableErrorCode: INVALID_RECEIPT, code: 8}, null)

 

I’m wondering if there is some issue in my setup or it’s sandbox/Apple fault.
