A purchase can result in success with verificationResult .unverified. Is there a list of reasons for which the transaction might be unverified and how should i handle it in my app? From my understanding, a successful unverified transaction means the user has already paid for the purchase. So, do i just ignore the unverified transaction or do i provide content to the user anyways?

I’m seeing an issue with subscriptions in TestFlight builds on iOS 26. Running from Xcode works as expected, and the App Store build looks fine. But when I install the same build via TestFlight, transaction.subscriptionStatus is nil. The identical binary behaves correctly on an iOS 18 device. Is this expected behavior on iOS 26 TestFlight, or am I missing something? Thanks!

https://aninterestingwebsite.com/documentation/appstoreserverapi/send_consumption_information If the customer provided consent, respond by calling this API and sending the consumption data in the ConsumptionRequest to the App Store. If not, respond by calling this API and setting the customerConsented value to false in the ConsumptionRequest; don't send any other information. Since our server would be receiving CONSUMPTION_REQUEST server notifications and will be the one calling the Consumption API, how do we know if the user has provided consent? That info doesn't seem to be in the server notification or anywhere else.

Hi, We're currently experiencing an issue with consumable In-App Purchases on our production iOS app. Until the end of May, everything was working as expected, but starting in early June, our app no longer receives any products when calling queryProductDetails() using Flutter’s in_app_purchase plugin (which utilizes StoreKit). Here’s what we’ve confirmed so far: The product IDs are correctly configured in App Store Connect, and all items are marked as “Approved.” No recent changes have been made to the bundle ID or the product IDs. The “Base Territory” setting was updated for each IAP item in early May. After that change, product retrieval and purchases were working normally through the end of May. This issue is happening on real devices in production, and multiple users are affected. The same functionality continues to work correctly on Android. All requested product IDs are being returned in the notFoundIDs list of the queryProductDetails() response. We're quite puzzled by this issue as no clear cause has been identified so far. Any thoughts on this issue would be much appreciated. Thank you!

Hello Developer support, In one of our live application we have seen that users are purchasing weekly subscription and automatically they shifted to yearly product. Due to this we have received high revenue and also refunds afterwards. To prevent this we removed our yearly product from the sale. In App Store Connect we have seen activations for weekly product and convert to standard prices are yearly products. Also we have seen weird behavior of user getting trial for same product for three times. For developer support people I am sharing my app id - 1320373866 , and here is the video of our issue - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1DBHw8ivgql4eNoo8NC3xo5v4wgr8Oh7x/view?usp=sharing , Also attaching trial behavior screenshot.

Hello, I use Storekit2 to test the purchase of subscription products. After purchasing a subscription product in the sandbox, it will automatically renew 12 times, and then it will no longer automatically renew. When I click to purchase again, calling the try await product.purchase() method does not pop up the purchase pop-up window. In fact, it will directly go to the case let .success(.verified(transaction)): step, and the Transaction.currentEntitlements is empty

I'm developing an app and I think I've implemented what I need to in the swift code. However, when I click the Purchase button in my app, I see "Cannot connect to App Store" when the App Store app opens. Attached are images showing how I've configured the Sandbox user. What am I doing wrong? I expect to be able to do a fake purchase to test subscription activation in the app, but it doesn't work.

Currently, over the xcode environment to do the testing of product subscriptions through appstore are working correctly using the storeKit. When deployed in testflight to do the testing over the integration environment, the store response times are being excessively high, in excess of 20 minutes. This behavior is not replicated on Xcode, and is happening on recent versions uploaded to testflight, as earlier versions that were already tested and are currently in production. In addition the communication between the appstore webhook and the BE is also failing in this environment. It is being blocked to generate any test to be able to launch to production.

We are currently using App Store Server Notifications V2 in a production environment, but occasionally encounter the error "Failed to parse signedTransactionInfo in the notification payload. status=VERIFICATION_FAILURE." What could be the cause of this error? Also, is there a way to resolve this error? After the notification from Apple was received on the server side, it was passed to the Apple library and an error occurred in the Apple library when decryption was performed.

Im building a small iphone app with StoreKit and currently testing it in testflight right on my mac, not on iphone. StoreKit part almost exactly copied from SKDemo from one of the Apple's WWDC. For some users and for myself Transaction.currentEntitlements always returns .unverified results. I double-checked Apple Connect settings, i checked my internet connection and everything is fine. Is there some pitfalls for testflight on mac? How can I find out what is causing this problem?

login sandbox account at setting > app store > sandbox account. download my app from testflight purchase subscription is fine. stop renew subscription. after subscription expired, delete app, then download from testflight again. tried to restore purchase, the result count always zero

Hi everyone, I’ve been receiving App Store Server Notifications (webhooks) normally for a specific transaction. Everything was working fine — I could use the original_transaction_id to query transaction history, and transaction_id to look up specific transactions. However, starting recently, all API calls for that transaction (both Get Transaction Info and Get Transaction History) now return not found. • The webhooks used to arrive normally for this transaction. • I am sure I’m querying the correct environment (production vs sandbox). • The IDs I’m using are exactly the ones from the last webhook payload. • I haven’t changed my integration code. My questions: 1. Under what conditions does Apple’s API return “not found” for original_transaction_id that previously worked? 2. Can Apple actually purge transaction records (in production)? 3. Could this happen due to refunds, revocations, or other account actions? 4. Is this expected behavior, or should I file a DTS (Technical Support Incident)? Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hello I am trying to add payments on my app. I have added all products I need in subscriptions. I also tried by using storekit but from my understanding testing with storekit is nothing to rely on. My app works on Android (with the same product IDs same unction call) iOS is not why is that?

Hi, This is the first time I'm submitting an app using IAP with auto-renewing subscriptions. Everything keeps getting rejected (specifically, my subscriptions), and instead of telling me what's wrong or what I need to fix, my reviewer just keeps regurgitating generic passages from the rules. Is there a site/tutorial/whatever that explains how to set these up and submit them? I haven't found anything that looks official/legit, so I'll settle on something recommended by someone who has been through the process. I would appreciate any help. I have been at this for DAYS and am at my wits end. Thanks.

After downloading Backyard Birds and following the steps in the section "Configure the sample code project" (i.e. enabling local StoreKit testing in the scheme). When I run the macOS app from within XCode, the following error occurs. Whenever I try to purchase any item from within the app, I am presented with the following error dialogue: "Couldn’t communicate with a helper application. Try your operation again. If that fails, quit and relaunch the application and try again." This happens after I click the purchase button (i.e. the button that displays the price). The Xcode logs show the following errors: Error handling payment sheet request: Error Domain=NSCocoaErrorDomain Code=4099 "The connection to service created from an endpoint was invalidated from this process."

Issue Description When using the App Store Server API endpoint GET v2/history/{transactionId} to retrieve transaction history for a specific transaction, I'm observing unexpected changes in the appTransactionId field across related transactions in the same subscription group. Important Context: This is a "clean" auto-renewable subscription with no user intervention - the user has had continuous auto-renewals without any upgrades, downgrades, cancellations, or resubscriptions. The subscription has been renewing automatically and successfully throughout the entire period. API Call GET v2/history/1000000000000001 Response Data The API returns the following transaction history, where I notice the appTransactionId values are inconsistent across what should be a straightforward auto-renewal sequence: Note: The data below has been sanitized for privacy protection (IDs, bundle identifiers, etc. have been replaced with example values), but the logical relationships, date sequences, and the core issue remain identical to the original data. Array ( [0] => Array ( [transactionId] => 1000000000000001 [originalTransactionId] => 1000000000000001 [webOrderLineItemId] => 1000000000000001 [bundleId] => com.example.myapp [productId] => MonthlySubscription [subscriptionGroupIdentifier] => 20000000 [purchaseDate] => 1743784032000 [originalPurchaseDate] => 1743784034000 [expiresDate] => 1746376032000 [quantity] => 1 [type] => Auto-Renewable Subscription [inAppOwnershipType] => PURCHASED [signedDate] => 1751868174651 [environment] => Production [transactionReason] => PURCHASE // Original purchase [storefront] => USA [storefrontId] => 143441 [price] => 100000 [currency] => USD [appTransactionId] => 700000000000000001 // Different value ) [1] => Array ( [transactionId] => 1000000000000002 [originalTransactionId] => 1000000000000001 [webOrderLineItemId] => 1000000000000002 [bundleId] => com.example.myapp [productId] => MonthlySubscription [subscriptionGroupIdentifier] => 20000000 [purchaseDate] => 1746376032000 [originalPurchaseDate] => 1746347349000 [expiresDate] => 1749054432000 [quantity] => 1 [type] => Auto-Renewable Subscription [inAppOwnershipType] => PURCHASED [signedDate] => 1751868174651 [environment] => Production [transactionReason] => RENEWAL // First auto-renewal [storefront] => USA [storefrontId] => 143441 [price] => 100000 [currency] => USD [appTransactionId] => 700000000000000002 // Same for renewals ) [2] => Array ( [transactionId] => 1000000000000003 [originalTransactionId] => 1000000000000001 [webOrderLineItemId] => 1000000000000003 [bundleId] => com.example.myapp [productId] => MonthlySubscription [subscriptionGroupIdentifier] => 20000000 [purchaseDate] => 1749054432000 [originalPurchaseDate] => 1749025657000 [expiresDate] => 1751646432000 [quantity] => 1 [type] => Auto-Renewable Subscription [inAppOwnershipType] => PURCHASED [signedDate] => 1751868174651 [environment] => Production [transactionReason] => RENEWAL // Second auto-renewal [storefront] => USA [storefrontId] => 143441 [price] => 100000 [currency] => USD [appTransactionId] => 700000000000000002 // Same as previous renewal ) [3] => Array ( [transactionId] => 1000000000000004 [originalTransactionId] => 1000000000000001 [webOrderLineItemId] => 1000000000000004 [bundleId] => com.example.myapp [productId] => MonthlySubscription [subscriptionGroupIdentifier] => 20000000 [purchaseDate] => 1751646432000 [originalPurchaseDate] => 1751617840000 [expiresDate] => 1754324832000 [quantity] => 1 [type] => Auto-Renewable Subscription [inAppOwnershipType] => PURCHASED [signedDate] => 1751868174651 [environment] => Production [transactionReason] => RENEWAL // Third auto-renewal [storefront] => USA [storefrontId] => 143441 [price] => 100000 [currency] => USD [appTransactionId] => 700000000000000002 // Same as previous renewals ) ) Questions Is this behavior expected? Should the appTransactionId change between the original purchase and subsequent renewals within the same subscription group, especially when there are no user actions (upgrades/downgrades/cancellations/resubscriptions)? What determines the appTransactionId value? The documentation doesn't clearly explain when this identifier might change or what triggers a new value. This is particularly puzzling since this is a straightforward auto-renewal scenario. How should we handle this in our backend logic? Should we treat transactions with different appTransactionId values as separate entities, or should we rely on originalTransactionId for grouping related subscription transactions? Is this a known issue? We've seen similar concerns in the community regarding transaction ID inconsistencies, but this specific case involves a clean auto-renewal flow without any complicating factors.

Hi everyone, After my app was initially rejected, all my IAPs now show the status “Developer Action Needed.” There’s nothing I need to change on them — they were just returned because it was the first submission and the app itself was rejected. Do I need to do anything with the IAPs before I resubmit, or will they still be attached and reviewed automatically with the next binary? I’ve seen conflicting answers, so I’d like to confirm the correct process. Thanks, Cris

We are running into exceptions when trying to parse Purchase Date and Original Purchase Date from the base64 encoded receipt. Expected RFC 3339 format of ASN.1 Field Value is: yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ssZ but we end up getting back 2025-04-22T19.49.03Z. Started to happen on 3rd Dec 2024.

One of our customers subscribed to a monthly plan on August 16 but the server-to-server notification seems to have been sent on August 18. What could be the reasons for such a delay between the purchase and the server-to-server notification which are usually sent right after the purchase? The receipt sent along with the notification seems to confirm that the receipt has only been created 2 days after the purchase.
