Unity In-App Purchasing (IAP) provides a unified system for you to implement and manage in-app purchases across multiple stores.
You can use Unity IAP to sell digital content inside your application. Unity IAP provides a unified API to manage transactions across multiple digital distribution platforms, simplifying purchase implementation and management across different stores.
Unity IAP supports the following payment paths:
- Platform-native stores: Sell through Apple App Store and Google Play billing, the default in-app purchase paths that every mobile game ships with.
- In-game web payments flows: Players select to buy in-game and then complete the purchase through a web checkout, in a browser tab or webview. The purchase triggers at the moment of intent and completes through a Direct-to-Consumer (D2C) payment provider instead of app store billing.
- Webshops: Use the Unity Dashboard to build a no-code webshop and sell directly to players. A webshop gives you an owned channel for promotions and re-engagement.
You can use all of these paths together, vary them by audience or region, or adopt them gradually.
Unity IAP supports three product types: consumables (purchased multiple times), non-consumables (purchased once), and recurring subscriptions. This documentation covers IAP configuration, product definition, and how to implement a secure purchasing workflow.
