1. Enter your App Store credentials in the plugin
In WordPress admin → Blockli Mobile App → In-App Purchases → Store Credentials → Apple App Store tab, fill in four values:- Issuer ID — a UUID shown at the top of App Store Connect → Users and Access → Integrations → In-App Purchase.
- Key ID — created on that same page (see step 2 below).
- Bundle ID — must match your app’s bundle identifier exactly. This is the same one Studio bakes into the iOS build.
- Private key (.p8) — the file you download in step 2.
2. Create the In-App Purchase key in App Store Connect
- Go to App Store Connect → Users and Access → Integrations → In-App Purchase (not the team “App Store Connect API” tab — it’s a different section).
- Click Generate In-App Purchase Key, give it a name, and note the Key ID.
- Download the
.p8file. Apple only lets you download it once — keep it safe.
3. Upload and save
Upload the.p8 file in the plugin and click Save Store Credentials. The badge next to the key changes to “Configured.”
4. Add your products in the plugin
Under the Store Products tab, add one row per subscription or one-time product:- Product ID — your own label (e.g.
pro_monthly). - Type — Subscription or One-time.
- Tick iOS and enter the iOS product ID. This must exactly match the product ID you create in App Store Connect in the next step.
5. Create subscriptions in App Store Connect
- Open your app in App Store Connect → Monetization → Subscriptions.
- Create a subscription group. Users can hold only one active subscription per group, so put related tiers (e.g. Pro Monthly and Pro Yearly) in the same group.
- Add each subscription: set the product ID, duration, price, display name, and description.
- Add a review screenshot. Apple requires one before it will approve the subscription.
6. Wire up Packages, Offerings, and Paywalls
All under Blockli Mobile App → In-App Purchases. The structure rolls up: Package → Offering → Paywall.Packages
One Package per store product.- Package ID — your own short ID.
- Source — Native (App Store / Play).
- Store product — pick the product from step 4.
- Interval — Monthly or Yearly, matching the billing period. Leave blank for flat, non-recurring products.
Offerings
An Offering is one tier (e.g. “Pro”) with its own entitlement and copy.- Name, Tagline, Description — shown on this tier’s card.
- Included access — feature checklist for this tier.
- Packages — add both monthly and yearly Packages here if you want a Monthly/Yearly switcher on the card. Add just one for a single-interval tier.
- Access grant — what purchasing any Package in this Offering actually unlocks (a membership group, a course, etc.).
Paywalls
The purchase screen itself.- Title, Tagline, Description, Image — shown once at the top of the screen.
- Offerings — one Offering for a single-tier screen, or several to show multiple tier cards.
- Visible — must be checked for the app to fetch this paywall.
7. Point Apple’s notifications at WordPress
The plugin needs to hear from Apple when a subscription renews or expires — this is what grants and revokes access.- On the Apple App Store tab in the plugin, copy the App Store Server Notifications URL (pre-filled, read-only).
- In App Store Connect → your app → App Information → App Store Server Notifications, paste that URL as both the Production and Sandbox server URL.
- Set the version to Version 2.
8. Test with a sandbox account
- In App Store Connect → Users and Access → Sandbox, create a sandbox tester.
- Install a build from TestFlight on a physical device and sign in with the sandbox tester.
- Complete a purchase. Sandbox renewals run on a compressed schedule — you’ll see expiry and renewal events within minutes.
test in the Notification Events tab in WordPress.
