Android in-app multiple purchases


Is there a way to do more than 1 item using in-app purchase? For example - can I buy 2 of the same item?


Solution

  • No, not at this time. You can buy multiple unmanaged items, but they'll need to be separate purchases.

    As a workaround, I've seen people create separate SKUs for different item quantities. For example:

    • potion_1 = 1 potion ($1)
    • potion_2 = 2 potions ($2)
    • potion_3 = 3 potions ($3)
    • and so on...

    Alternatively, you can allow users to buy in-app credits specific to your app (again, you'll need to create different SKUs representing different credit values), then write your own storefront for exchanging these credits for goods. It's a bit more work, but this gives you a lot more control and flexibility over the checkout flow.
