# Unity In-App Purchasing

> Implement a unified in-app purchasing system to sell consumable items, non-consumable entitlements, and subscriptions across multiple digital storefronts.

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](/iap/stores.md), 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](/iap/payment-providers.md) instead of app store billing.
* **Webshops**: Use the Unity Dashboard to [build a no-code webshop](/iap/webshop.md) 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.
