General

Repeatable issue purchases allow reusing the same in-app product for all issues in a publication. They use consumable products in the app stores. The purchase will be consumed after the transaction has been successfully associated with a issue in the Purple backend and can then be purchased again.

When to use?

  • Daily published issues that can be purchased separately

Background

Both the Google Play Store and Apple App Store limit the amount of products that can be created per app. These limits can be reached very fast if many issues are published on a daily basis.

Configuration

Google Play

To use Repeatable issue purchases on Android, a normal in-app product needs to be created. 

Apple iTunes

To use Repeatable issue purchases on iOS, a consumable in-app product needs to be created in Apple App Store Connect.

Info

Make sure to use the same Product-ID that was used in the app stores.
