Market price distinction for in-app software billing

摘要

Different prices may be charged for an In-App Purchase (IAP) for a same item based on a market associated with the user. For example, a user in one market may be charged a different price for an item than what is charged for the item to a user in a different market. A different product identifier is associated with the item for each of the different markets for the item. The item is submitted to the application store as different items that have the different product identifiers for each of the different markets. When an IAP request for an item is received from a user, a market that is associated with the user is determined based on a location associated with the user. After determining the market for the user, the product identifier that identifies the product is used to obtain the item from the application store.
