Summary

In-app purchases (IAP) have revolutionized mobile app monetization by offering developers new revenue streams and enhancing user engagement. Various React Native IAP packages, built on Google Play Billing and Apple's StoreKit, facilitate the integration of IAP into applications. The article provides a detailed guide on incorporating react-native-iap into a React Native app through a practical example of a recipe application that offers recipes for free, with an option to unlock all recipes via a premium subscription. It explains the creation of IAP products, setting up license testers, and configuring the react-native-iap library, including defining product SKUs and fetching available purchases. The guide emphasizes testing in-app purchases on real devices and using LogRocket for monitoring and identifying issues in React Native apps. Through this integration, app developers can enhance user experience while unlocking monetization potential.
