Payment providers — Voidhash Docs

Connect the App Store, Google Play and Stripe in Studio so purchases grant access and count in revenue.

A payment provider is where your customers pay: the App Store, Google Play or Stripe. Connecting one lets Voidhash check each purchase with the provider, keep subscriptions current, grant the perks of the product bought, and count the revenue. You connect providers per project.

Only admins and the owner can open payment providers. Setting one up takes keys from App Store Connect, Google Play Console or the Stripe Dashboard, so whoever manages those accounts may need to help.

Choose a provider

You sell…	Connect
In an iOS, iPadOS or macOS app	App Store
In an Android app	Google Play
On your website, with Stripe Checkout or Stripe Billing	Stripe
Through another payment provider, bank transfers, vouchers or invoices	A payment source (developer docs)

A project can use all of them at once. Someone who buys on one platform keeps the same perks on the others once your apps sign them in with the same user ID.

Connect a provider

Open Settings → Payment providers. It lists the stores, Stripe and your payment sources.
Click Set up next to the provider.
Fill in each tab. Every field that needs a value from the store has a Where to find? link that opens step-by-step instructions next to the form.
Click Save changes. Studio asks whether to enable the provider.

Settings → Payment providers in Studio

Each provider shows Enabled or Disabled. A disabled provider doesn't process purchases. If you save settings that are no longer complete on an enabled provider, Studio offers to disable it.

After you connect

Link each store product to the Voidhash product it grants, or import the catalog. See Link store products.
Make a test purchase. See Test purchases.
Go live with your production keys. Your developers follow the go-live checklist (developer docs).

Test purchases

Test purchases are free and stay out of your production revenue. Each provider has its own way:

App Store: sandbox accounts and TestFlight.
Google Play: license testers and test tracks.
Stripe: test mode.
Payment sources: a test secret key (developer docs).

Developers can also buy from a simulated store in debug builds, without connecting a store. See Development mode (developer docs).

See test purchases in Studio

Studio shows one environment at a time. Open the project switcher and choose Production, Sandbox or Test. Purchases and revenue follow the switch:

Environment	Holds
Production	Real purchases.
Sandbox	App Store sandbox, TestFlight, App Review and Google Play test purchases.
Test	Simulated purchases from debug builds, Stripe test mode and payment source tests.

By default, App Store and Google Play test purchases also unlock your released app, so App Review can open what it buys. Your developers can turn this off; see Store sandbox in production apps (developer docs).
