This includes defining the purchase type, setting pricing and availability, and ensuring the Product ID matches what is configured elsewhere in your app setup. Apple treats each in-app purchase as a product that must be reviewed and approved. Adding new purchases requires submitting an updated app build for review. --- ### **Requirements** - You must be on the Growth or Scale plan to leverage in-app purchases - An active Apple App Store Connect account - In-app purchases must already be created in the Buildfire Control Panel --- ### **How to create in-app purchases in Apple App Store Connect** 1. Log in to **App Store Connect** 2. Go to **My Apps**, then select your app 3. Click **Monetization**, then select **In-App Purchases** 4. Click **Create** and choose the purchase type - Select **Consumable**, **Non-Consumable**, or **Subscription** 5. Enter the required product details - Reference name - Product ID (must exactly match the Product ID created in the Buildfire Control Panel) 6. Configure availability and pricing - Select storefronts - Set pricing tiers 7. Complete app information and localization fields as required 8. Save the in-app purchase Once saved, the in-app purchase will be available to attach to an app build and submitted to Apple for review with your next app submission. --- ### **Pro tips** - Apple requires a **new app submission** whenever a new in-app purchase is added - Product IDs cannot be reused once created - Use clear, consistent naming for Product IDs to avoid mismatches later - Test purchases using Apple sandbox accounts before releasing to production - [Buildfire Control Panel](https://help.buildfire.com/buildfire-control-panel?hsLang=en-us#main-content) - [Navigating the Control Panel](https://help.buildfire.com/buildfire-control-panel?hsLang=en-us#navigating-the-control-panel) - [Global Tools](https://help.buildfire.com/buildfire-control-panel?hsLang=en-us#global-tools) - [Terms & Policies](https://help.buildfire.com/buildfire-control-panel?hsLang=en-us#terms-policies) - [Build Your App](https://help.buildfire.com/build-your-app?hsLang=en-us#main-content) - [Global Settings](https://help.buildfire.com/build-your-app?hsLang=en-us#global-settings) - [Building Your App's Navigation](https://help.buildfire.com/build-your-app?hsLang=en-us#building-your-apps-navigation) - [Building Your Login Flow](https://help.buildfire.com/build-your-app?hsLang=en-us#building-your-login-flow) - [Building a PWA](https://help.buildfire.com/build-your-app?hsLang=en-us#building-a-pwa) - [Add Functionality To Your App](https://help.buildfire.com/add-functionality-to-your-app?hsLang=en-us#main-content) - [Plugins to drive engagement & community](https://help.buildfire.com/add-functionality-to-your-app?hsLang=en-us#plugins-to-drive-engagement-community) - [Plugins to drive monetization](https://help.buildfire.com/add-functionality-to-your-app?hsLang=en-us#plugins-to-drive-monetization) - [Plugins to run operations & workflows](https://help.buildfire.com/add-functionality-to-your-app?hsLang=en-us#plugins-to-run-operations-workflows) - [Plugins to show content & media](https://help.buildfire.com/add-functionality-to-your-app?hsLang=en-us#plugins-to-show-content-media) - [Make Money With Your App](https://help.buildfire.com/make-money-with-your-app?hsLang=en-us#main-content) - [Overview](https://help.buildfire.com/make-money-with-your-app?hsLang=en-us#overview) - [Apple/iOS](https://help.buildfire.com/make-money-with-your-app?hsLang=en-us#apple-ios) - [Google/Android](https://help.buildfire.com/make-money-with-your-app?hsLang=en-us#google-android) - [Publish Your App](https://help.buildfire.com/publish-your-app?hsLang=en-us#main-content) - [Overview](https://help.buildfire.com/publish-your-app?hsLang=en-us#overview) - [Apple/iOS](https://help.buildfire.com/publish-your-app?hsLang=en-us#apple-ios) - [Google/Android](https://help.buildfire.com/publish-your-app?hsLang=en-us#google-android) - [Manage Your App](https://help.buildfire.com/manage-your-app?hsLang=en-us#main-content) - [Managing Your App’s Users](https://help.buildfire.com/manage-your-app?hsLang=en-us#managing-your-apps-users) - [Push Notifications](https://help.buildfire.com/manage-your-app?hsLang=en-us#push-notifications) - [Analytics](https://help.buildfire.com/manage-your-app?hsLang=en-us#analytics) - [Connect External Partners](https://help.buildfire.com/connect-external-partners?hsLang=en-us#main-content) - [Google/Android](https://help.buildfire.com/connect-external-partners?hsLang=en-us#google-android) - [Apple/iOS](https://help.buildfire.com/connect-external-partners?hsLang=en-us#apple-ios) - [Zapier](https://help.buildfire.com/connect-external-partners?hsLang=en-us#zapier) - [Meta](https://help.buildfire.com/connect-external-partners?hsLang=en-us#meta) - [Segment](https://help.buildfire.com/connect-external-partners?hsLang=en-us#segment) [![Group 4578 (1)](https://help.buildfire.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Group%204578%20(1).png?width=140&height=33&name=Group%204578%20(1).png "Group 4578 (1)")](https://buildfire.com/) Copyright © 2026, Buildfire
