Direct-to-Consumer payment providers
In addition to platform native stores, you can integrate Direct-to-Consumer (D2C) payment providers to sell in-app products directly to your players. These providers act as the merchant of record (MoR), which means they handle tax compliance, fraud prevention, disputes, and customer support on your behalf.
Unity IAP supports the following Direct-to-Consumer payment providers:
For the full integration workflow, refer to Integrate D2C payment providers.
Webshop
A webshop is a hosted, no-code web storefront for your game's in-app purchases, built and managed from the Unity Dashboard. It reuses your existing IAP catalog and D2C payment provider, so there is no separate payment integration required. Players can open the webshop from multiple entry points, such as your game, website, or social channels, and return to the game via deep link after completing their purchase.
For more information, refer to Webshop.
