iOS In-App Purchase

On iOS, all consumable digital purchases (top-up, subscription, premium upgrades) use Apple In-App Purchase via StoreKit 2 — required by Apple Guideline 3.1.1.

How it works​

  • Tap a paid item → standard Apple purchase sheet appears.
  • Authorize with Face ID / Touch ID / Apple ID password.
  • Apple charges your card / Apple ID balance.
  • Receipt is validated server-side via Apphud; your balance / subscription activates.

Restore purchases​

If you reinstall the app or switch devices:

  • App → Settings → Restore Purchases.
  • The app contacts Apple, retrieves all your past purchases, and resyncs your active subscription state.

Silent recovery​

On every app start, Akupon silently syncs your Apphud subscription state to your account. If a purchase succeeded on Apple's side but didn't reach our backend at the time (e.g. you lost connection mid-purchase), it is reconciled automatically — no action needed from you.

Idempotency​

Each Apple transaction_id is checked against our dedup table before crediting. Reinstalling or restoring will not double-credit your balance.

Refunds​

  • iOS refunds are handled by Apple, not by Akupon.
  • Request via reportaproblem.apple.com.
  • Once Apple approves, our backend receives a refund notification and adjusts your balance / subscription accordingly.

Why prices differ from Android / web​

Apple charges a commission and applies regional pricing tiers. The IDR/USD price on iOS may differ slightly from the same product on Android or web — the value you receive (points, days of Premium) is identical.
