ℹ️External payment link-outs — iOS & Android

iOS: In the U.S., Japan, and Brazil, Apple now lets developers direct players to external web payments. The Xsolla SDK aligns with Apple’s updated guidelines.

Android — Effective Oct 29, 2025: Following the Epic v. Google injunction, U.S. Google Play apps may guide users to external payment methods via link-outs, use alternative billing solutions, and are no longer subject to anti-steering restrictions.

For both platforms, the fastest recommended non-SDK approach is the Buy Button via link-outs to Web Shop

Buy Button integration via Web Shop link is a quick, low-code way to enable item-specific purchases from your game using a browser-based checkout. It offers:

  • A seamless flow — tapping Buy Button opens the Web Shop checkout for a specific item, allowing users to automatically return to the game after a successful payment.
  • Support for a wide range of payment methods, including one-click payments via Apple Pay, for fast and familiar mobile checkout.
  • Fast setup — if your Web Shop is already set up, you only need to add a link with parameters to the game.
  • Instant onboarding — if you don’t have Web Shop yet, you can get started quickly by instantly creating Web Shop, adding payment links to your game, and going live.

SDK approach​

Use Web Shop link-outs when you want minimal code changes by redirecting the user to your existing Xsolla Web Shop to complete the purchase.

caution

In Web Shop link-out mode, the SDK does not execute its native in-app payment flow. It only opens the Web Shop and cancels any SDK purchase callbacks. Handle fulfillment and post-payment updates via your Web Shop processes (for example, webhooks or server-side logic), not via SDK purchase callbacks.
