FAQPage Schema
How do I verify Google Play in-app purchases on the server to prevent fraud?

Server-side Google Play purchase verification uses the Android Publisher API to validate in-app products and subscriptions. You send a purchase token from the client to your backend, which checks the purchase state and entitlement directly with Google Play Developer API.

What do I need to set up server-side Google Play purchase validation?

Server-side Google Play purchase validation requires a service account with Google Play Developer API access. You must configure this service account in your backend environment to authenticate requests and validate tokens securely.

Can I verify Google Play subscription renewals and refunds on my backend?

Yes, backend Google Play subscription verification supports checking subscription status, handling acknowledgments, and processing refunds. The Android Publisher API allows your server to track renewal states and revoke access for canceled or refunded subscriptions.

Why should I use server-side Google Play purchase verification instead of client-side checks?

Server-side Google Play purchase verification prevents fraud by ensuring only paid users get access. Client-side checks are easily bypassed, but backend validation using the Android Publisher API securely confirms entitlement directly with Google's servers.
