They automatically renew at the end of their duration until the user chooses to cancel. Subscriptions are available on iOS, iPadOS, macOS, tvOS, visionOS, and watchOS.</p> <p>Great subscription apps justify the recurring payment by providing ongoing value and continually innovating the app experience. If you’re considering implementing the subscription model, plan to regularly update your app with feature enhancements or expanded content.</p> <p>Many types of apps can take advantage of subscriptions, including apps that offer new game levels, episodic content, software as a service, or cloud support. Other appropriate subscriptions include apps that offer consistent, substantive updates, or access to libraries or collections of content. You can offer subscriptions (a type of in-app purchase) alongside other in-app purchase types.</p> <h3 id="get-ready" data-sidenav>Getting ready</h3> <p>To offer subscriptions, youʼll need to configure them in App Store Connect and use StoreKit APIs in your app. You’ll also need to assign each subscription to a subscription group (a group of subscriptions with different access levels, prices, and durations that people can choose from), then add details such as a name, price, and description. This information displays in the In-App Purchases section of your app’s product page on the App Store. Ensure that the subscriptions are available across all device types that your app supports. Consider allowing a way for subscribers to see the status of their subscription within your app, along with upgrade, crossgrade, and downgrade options, as well as a way to easily manage or turn off their auto-renewable subscription. Make sure to follow our design and review guidelines.</p> <p>To get ready:</p> <ul> <li>Watch the <a href="/videos/app-store-distribution-marketing/">In-App Purchase and Subscriptions videos</a>.</li> <li>Refer to the <a href="/documentation/storekit/in-app_purchase/">In-App Purchase StoreKit API documentation<span class="loc-cj"></span></a>.</li> <li>Learn how to configure your subscriptions in <a href="/help/app-store-connect/">App Store Connect Help</a>.</li> <li>Use the <a href="/documentation/appstoreserverapi/">App Store Server API<span class="loc-en-only"></span></a> and enable <a href="/documentation/appstoreservernotifications/">App Store Server Notifications<span class="loc-en-only"></span></a> to get real-time changes to the status of your subscriptions.</li> </ul> <h3 id="understanding-guidelines" data-sidenav="Understanding guidelines">Understanding subscription guidelines</h3> <p>Before creating your subscriptions, make sure you understand the requirements and best practices that will help you deliver a great experience. The guidelines below provide details on what your subscriptions need to include and how they should be presented in your app, as well as information on making changes to existing subscriptions, offering free trials, and more.</p> <p>Resources:</p> <ul class="small links"> <li class="document"><a href="/app-store/review/guidelines/#3.1.2">App Review Guidelines</a></li> <li class="document"><a href="/design/human-interface-guidelines/in-app-purchase#Autorenewable-subscriptions">Human Interface Guidelines</a></li> </ul> <h3 id="revenue-after-one-year" data-sidenav="Net revenue after a year">85% net revenue after one year</h3> <p>The net revenue structure for auto-renewable subscriptions differs from other business models on the App Store. During a subscriber’s first year of service, you receive 70% of the subscription price at each billing cycle, minus applicable taxes. After a subscriber accumulates one year of paid service, your net revenue increases to 85% of the subscription price, minus applicable taxes.</p> <p>Here’s how it works:</p> <ul> <li>Auto-renewable subscriptions on all Apple platforms are eligible.</li> <li>Days of paid service include all subscription offer types (introductory, promotional, and offer codes) with paid pricing options (pay as you go, pay up front).</li> <li>Free trials and renewal extensions are excluded from days of paid service.</li> <li>Days of paid service are specific to each subscription group.</li> <li>Upgrades, downgrades, or crossgrades between subscriptions in the same subscription group don’t affect the one year of paid service.</li> <li>If you’re currently enrolled in the <a href="/app-store/small-business-program/">App Store Small Business Program</a>, you receive 85% of the subscription price at each billing cycle (minus applicable taxes), regardless of whether or not the subscription has accumulated one year of paid service.</li> </ul> <p>If a subscription expires due to a cancellation or billing issue, the days of paid service stop accumulating. If the subscription is renewed <a href="#grace-period">within 60 days</a>, the days of paid service resume from the recovery date.</p> <h2 id="creating-subscriptions" class="headline-divider" data-sidenav>Creating subscriptions</h2> <p>You’ll configure your auto-renewable subscriptions in App Store Connect. Create each subscription product as part of a subscription group and assign it a level. How you set up your subscription group or groups will determine your proceeds rate, as well as how people can subscribe to your content or services, how they move between subscriptions, and when they are billed. Before creating subscriptions, identify the right subscription setup for your business model.</p> <h3 id="groups" data-sidenav="Creating a group">Creating a subscription group</h3> <p>Each subscription you offer must be assigned to a subscription group. A subscription group is made up of subscriptions with different access levels, prices, and durations so people can select the option that best fits their needs. Since people can only buy one subscription within a group at a time, creating a single group is the best practice for most apps as it prevents people from accidentally purchasing multiple subscriptions.</p> <p>If your app needs to offer the ability to buy multiple subscriptions — for example, to subscribe to more than one channel in a streaming app — you can add these subscriptions to different groups. People who buy subscriptions in multiple groups are billed separately for each subscription. Keep in mind that if a someone cancels a subscription in one group and then purchases a new subscription in a different group, the renewal date will change and the days of paid service will reset.</p> <p>Multiple subscription groups aren’t recommended for apps in which people would expect to have a single active subscription. Keep your offerings simple and easy to understand. For each subscription, create a user-friendly, self-explanatory name that differentiates it from others in the group. Use distinct names for the app, the subscription group, and each subscription to avoid confusion.</p> <div class="service-pins margin-top margin-bottom center"> <div class="device-iphone-x-silver-container device-large-for-medium device-medium-for-small"> <figure class="device-screen image-user-options"></figure> <figure class="device-hardware"></figure> </div>  <div class="pin-wrapper large-show special-hide"> <div class="keyline-special"></div> <div class="pin pin-horizontal pin-horizontal-left pin-1"> <span class="pin-caption">App Name or Custom App Name</span> </div> <div class="pin pin-horizontal pin-horizontal-right pin-2"> <span class="pin-caption">Subscription Display Name</span> </div> <div class="pin pin-horizontal pin-horizontal-right pin-4"> <span class="pin-caption">Price/Duration</span> </div> </div> <div class="pin-wrapper large-hide special-show"> <div class="keyline-special"></div> <div class="pin pin-vertical pin-vertical-bottom pin-1"> <span class="pin-caption">App Name or Custom App Name</span> </div> <div class="pin pin-vertical pin-vertical-top pin-3"> <span class="pin-caption">Subscription Display Name</span> </div> <div class="pin pin-vertical pin-vertical-top pin-4"> <span class="pin-caption">Price/Duration</span> </div> </div> </div> <h3 id="ranking" data-sidenav="Ranking subscriptions">Ranking subscriptions within the group</h3> <p>If you offer multiple subscriptions with different prices tiers, you can assign each to a level in App Store Connect. Ranking your subscriptions determines the upgrade, downgrade, and crossgrade paths available. Arrange your subscriptions in order from the one that offers the most (level 1) to the one that offers the least. For subscriptions with lower service or content offerings, you might assign level 2 or 3, depending on your intended subscription experience. You can add more than one subscription to each level if the offerings are equal. For details, see <a href="/help/app-store-connect/manage-subscriptions/offer-auto-renewable-subscriptions/">Overview of an Auto-renewable Subscription Group Setup</a>.</p> <p>People can manage their subscriptions in their account settings on the App Store, where they see all renewal options and subscription groups, and can choose to upgrade, crossgrade, or downgrade between subscriptions as often as they like. You can also use the <a href="/documentation/storekit/appstore/3803198-showmanagesubscriptions/">showManageSubscriptions(in:)<span class="loc-en-only"></span></a> method to allow them to do this within your app. When someone makes a change in their subscription level, the timing of the change varies depending on what has happened:</p> <p><strong>Upgrade.</strong> Someone purchases a subscription that offers a higher level of service than their current subscription. They’re immediately upgraded and receive a refund of the prorated amount of their original subscription. If you’d like people to immediately access more content or features, rank the subscription higher to make it an upgrade.</p> <p><strong>Downgrade.</strong> Someone selects a subscription that offers a lower level of service than their current subscription. The subscription continues until the next renewal date, then is renewed at the lower level and price.</p> <p><strong>Crossgrade.</strong> Someone switches to a new subscription of the equivalent level. If the subscriptions are the same duration, the new subscription begins immediately. If the durations are different, the new subscription goes into effect at the next renewal date.</p> <h3 id="territory" data-sidenav="Territory pricing">Pricing subscriptions for each territory</h3> <p>Apps with auto-renewable subscriptions can choose from 800 price points across all available currencies and price tiers, with an additional 100 higher price points available <a href="/contact/request/app-store-higher-price-points/">upon request</a>. You can set the prices you think are appropriate for subscribers in different locations, and you have the flexibility to price your subscriptions at parity across storefronts.</p> <p><strong>Pricing tool.</strong> The App Store Connect pricing tool can help you manage pricing based on current exchange rates. If there’s a tax change or currency adjustment in a particular region, the price of subscriptions won’t generally be affected unless you decide to pass the change on to your users. If you want to change the price of a subscription in a specific market, it’s important to understand which markets are tax inclusive before you take action. For example, if you decide to lower the subscription price for users in Germany, the revenue you’ll receive will be the purchase price minus the European Union’s value added tax (VAT) and minus Apple’s commission. The default pricing in the App Store Connect pricing tool is inclusive of applicable taxes that Apple collects and remits. For more information, review Schedule 2 of the Apple Developer Program License Agreement, which describes territories that have different tax treatments.</p> <p>App Store Connect also lets you <a href="/help/app-store-connect/manage-app-information/set-a-tax-category/">assign tax categories</a> to your apps and In-App Purchases. These categories are based on your app’s content (for example, videos, books, or news publications) and determine which tax regulations apply in each territory, allowing Apple to administer tax for you at specific rates.</p> <h3 id="family-sharing" data-sidenav> <figure class="icon-family-sharing"></figure> Family Sharing </h3> <p>Family Sharing allows a subscriber to share access to an auto-renewable subscription with up to five family members across their Apple devices. With a streamlined, convenient user experience, Family Sharing can help you attract subscribers, encourage paid subscriptions, increase engagement, and improve retention. You can enable Family Sharing for your subscription in App Store Connect. Please note that this can’t be undone.</p> <p>Verify subscription access using purchase validation, then provide the proper access to subscribers and their family members. Whether a subscription is shared with a subscriber’s family by default depends on their subscription sharing settings and if the purchase was made before or after you enabled Family Sharing in App Store Connect. Subscribers whose settings don’t share the subscription by default are informed by Apple via push notification that the subscription can be shared with their family.</p> <p>You can highlight Family Sharing in several ways:</p> <p><strong>Highlight Family Sharing to potential subscribers.</strong> Include Family Sharing in your subscription’s display name so it’s easy to spot when reviewing subscription options. If you offer a Family Sharing-enabled subscription alongside subscriptions that don’t include Family Sharing, you can note the price difference for the Family Sharing option on the sign up screen.</p> <p><strong>Remind subscribers to enable Family Sharing.</strong> Mention Family Sharing within your app — for example, as part of onboarding for new subscribers or via in-app messaging for existing subscribers. Consider explaining how to confirm they’ve turned on Family Sharing for the subscription. If you offer a Family Sharing-enabled subscription they’re not currently subscribed to, you might provide a way for them to upgrade without leaving your app. Make sure you’ve ranked your subscriptions within the same subscription level in App Store Connect to provide a seamless upgrade experience.</p> <p><strong>Help subscribers share subscriptions.</strong> You can use in-app messaging to ask subscribers to confirm their Family Sharing settings, or implement share extensions so they can easily share your app. Within the transaction information, you can look at <a href="/documentation/storekit/transaction/3749705-ownershiptype/">ownershipType<span class="loc-en-only"></span></a> to see if someone is the subscriber or a family member, so you can make sure to display your message to the person who completed the purchase.</p> <p>Resources:</p> <ul class="small links"> <li class="document"><a href="/help/app-store-connect/configure-in-app-purchase-settings/turn-on-family-sharing-for-in-app-purchases/">Turn on Family Sharing for in-app purchases</a></li> <li class="document"><a href="/documentation/storekit/original_api_for_in-app_purchase/supporting_family_sharing_in_your_app/">Support Family Sharing in your app<span class="loc-en-only"></span></a></li> <li class="video"><a href="/videos/play/tech-talks/110345">Family Sharing for in-app purchases</a></li> </ul> <h3 id="offering-subscriptions-to-multiple-apps" data-sidenav="Multiple apps">Offering subscriptions to multiple apps</h3> <p>You can offer auto-renewable subscriptions to access multiple apps. Each app must be approved to use auto-renewable In-App Purchases and published under the same developer account.</p> <p>Use App Store Connect to set up separate and equivalent auto-renewable subscriptions for each app included in the multiapp subscription so that people can subscribe from any app. To help people avoid paying multiple times for the same offering, make sure to verify that they’re active subscribers before showing any subscription options. <a href="/app-store/subscriptions/#keeping-subscribers">View details on determining if a subscription is active</a>.</p> <p>You can also create an app bundle to group multiple subscription apps into a single download at a reduced price.

This discount type may be useful if you want to let people experience your subscription at no immediate cost to them.</p> <p><strong>Pay as you go.</strong> A subscriber pays a discounted price each billing period for a specific duration — for example, $1.99 per month for three months for a subscription with a standard renewal price of $9.99 per month.

Aim for a simple graphic that’s different than your app icon or screenshots that conveys the essence of the In-App Purchase included as part of the offer.</p> <p>By default, <a href="/help/app-store-connect/manage-subscriptions/manage-streamlined-purchasing">streamlined purchasing</a> is turned on for your app or game, which lets people complete a purchase from outside your app. You can turn this off in App Store Connect if you wish.</p> <div class="resource-grid margin-top"> <a href="/videos/play/wwdc2024/10110/" class="resource-grid-item"> <div class="image-wrapper thumbnail" aria-hidden="true"> <img class="thumbnail-image" data-session="9237-ref" src="https://devimages-cdn.apple.com/wwdc-services/images/C03E6E6D-A32A-41D0-9E50-C3C6059820AA/9237/9237_wide_250x141_2x.jpg" alt="" width="100%"> <span class="thumbnail-scrim"></span> <span class="thumbnail-button" aria-label="Play"></span> </div> <h4>Implement App Store Offers</h4> </a> </div> <h2 id="keeping-subscribers" class="headline-divider" data-sidenav>Keeping subscribers</h2> <p>For people to stay subscribed to your app, they need to continue getting value out of the subscription. Update your app regularly with new content and feature enhancements to help encourage subscribers to maintain their subscriptions.</p> <h3 id="sending-notifications-to-aid-retention" data-sidenav>Sending notifications</h3> <p>When written thoughtfully, notifications can help people stay engaged with your service and keep their subscriptions active. To ensure a positive experience, make sure your notifications are timely, serve a clear purpose, and deliver meaningful information. You can also use push notifications to market your content — for example, promoting a subscription offer to people who haven’t yet subscribed. However, people must first explicitly opt in to receiving marketing push notifications via a method within your app that includes consent language and a clear way of opting out. Carefully consider the frequency, timing, and content of your notifications to ensure they always provide value to subscribers. Push notifications must not include sensitive personal or confidential information.</p> <ul class="links-stacked"> <li><a href="/design/human-interface-guidelines/managing-notifications">View design <span class="more nowrap">guidance</span></a></li> <li><a href="/documentation/usernotificationsui/">Get details on implementing <span class="more nowrap">notifications<span class="loc-en-only"></span></span></a></li> </ul> <h3 id="subscription-support" data-sidenav="Subscriber support">Providing support</h3> <p>Thoughtful customer support helps you manage relationships with your subscribers and can lead to improved engagement, higher retention, and better ratings and reviews. Use StoreKit and App Store server APIs to provide more seamless subscriber support, and to resolve issues in a more timely and efficient manner.</p> <h4 class="typography-headline-body">Letting people manage their subscriptions</h4> <p>A subscriber’s preferences may change during a subscription period. You can use the <a href="/documentation/storekit/appstore/3803198-showmanagesubscriptions/">showManageSubscriptions(in:)<span class="loc-en-only"></span></a> method to let them manage their subscription within your app. By providing a dedicated place in your app to manage subscriptions, you can also display other options to complement the system-provided management UI. For example, you might show a promotional offer that provides a higher service level for a discounted price. If they cancel, you might provide an offer to help win them back and encourage them to resubscribe. Or you might present a survey where they can share feedback about their subscription experience and reasons for cancelling, which can inform your marketing strategy. To ensure a positive experience, always make it easy for people to access the system-provided management UI where they can cancel if they wish.</p> <h4 class="typography-headline-body">Extending a subscription’s renewal date</h4> <p>In cases of service or content delivery issues — such as a server outage or technical glitch — you can extend the renewal date of a subscription using the <a href="/documentation/appstoreserverapi/extend_a_subscription_renewal_date/">Renewal Date Extension endpoint<span class="loc-en-only"></span></a>. For example, if a sports match is canceled or there’s an interruption to a livestreamed event, you might extend free service for a specified time in order to make up for the issue. You can move the renewal date for a customer’s subscription twice per calendar year, each up to 90 days in the future. Any days included in an extension won’t count toward the one year of paid service needed to receive an 85% proceeds rate.</p> <p>Alternatively, you can use <a href="/app-store/subscriptions/#offer-codes">offer codes</a> to compensate dissatisfied subscribers with a free or discounted subscription for a specific period of time. These codes can be redeemed on the App Store or within your app.</p> <h4 class="typography-headline-body">Determining subscriber status</h4> <p>The <a href="/documentation/appstoreserverapi/get_all_subscription_statuses/">Get All Subscription Statuses<span class="loc-en-only"></span></a> endpoint lets you determine in one simple check whether a subscription is active, expired, in billing retry, or in grace period. Use this information to inform your retention strategy and provide subscribers with relevant information within your app, such as their upcoming renewal date. You can also use this endpoint alongside the <a href="/documentation/storekit/transaction/3822312-offerid/">OfferID<span class="loc-en-only"></span></a> and <a href="/documentation/storekit/transaction/3822313-offertype/">OfferType<span class="loc-en-only"></span></a> transaction properties in StoreKit to identify offer redemptions.</p> <ul class="links-stacked"> <li><a href="/videos/play/tech-talks/10887/">Learn to support customers with StoreKit 2 and the <span class="icon icon-after icon-playcircle nowrap">App Store Server API</span></a></li> <li><a href="/videos/play/wwdc2021/10175/">Learn to support customers and <span class="icon icon-after icon-playcircle nowrap">manage refunds</span></a></li> <li><a href="/design/human-interface-guidelines/in-app-purchase#Providing-help-with-in-app-purchases">Learn to help people manage their <span class="more nowrap">subscriptions</span></a></li> </ul> <h3 id="retaining-subscribers" data-sidenav="Retaining subscribers">Retaining subscribers</h3> <p>Use the <a href="/documentation/appstoreserverapi/get_all_subscription_statuses/">Get All Subscription Statuses<span class="loc-en-only"></span></a> endpoint and <a href="/documentation/appstoreserverapi/get_transaction_history/">Get Transaction History<span class="loc-en-only"></span></a> endpoint to determine the status of your users’ subscriptions and view transaction history, so you can identify and act on:</p> <p><strong>Voluntary churn.</strong> Determine if a subscriber has turned off auto-renew for a particular subscription using the <a href="/documentation/appstoreserverapi/get_all_subscription_statuses/">Get All Subscription Statuses<span class="loc-en-only"></span></a> endpoint. You can also use App Store Server Notifications to get real-time updates about changes in a user’s status and key events related to their In-App Purchases, such as a change in renewal status. Use this information to take action in response. For example, you might present a promotional offer or suggest an alternate tier that better fits their needs. When a subscription expires, you can lock access to the subscription’s content or service. Be sure to inform the user of any changes and let them know if there’s anything they need to do in response and how to resubscribe if needed.</p> <p id="grace-period"><strong>Involuntary churn.</strong> Sometimes a subscriber might experience a billing issue, such as an expired credit card, that causes their subscription to expire. Starting in iOS 16.4 and iPadOS 16.4, if a subscription doesn’t successfully renew, a system-provided sheet appears in your app upon launch with a prompt that lets customers update the payment method for their Apple Account. If you’d like, you can choose to delay or suppress this sheet in StoreKit using <a href="/documentation/storekit/message">messages<span class="loc-en-only"></span></a> and <a href="/documentation/storekit/message/3963915-display/">display<span class="loc-en-only"></span></a>.</p> <p>You can learn when a subscription fails to renew using:</p> <ul> <li>App Store server notifications, which sends a DID_FAIL_TO_RENEW notification type.</li> <li><a href="/documentation/storekit/product/subscriptioninfo/renewalstate/">StoreKit renewal state<span class="loc-en-only"></span></a> to get information about the renewal state.</li> <li><a href="/documentation/appstoreserverapi/get_all_subscription_statuses/">The App Store Server API<span class="loc-en-only"></span></a> to get all subscription statuses.</li> </ul> <p>When a subscription renewal fails, Apple attempts to recover it for 60 days. If you’ve chosen to pause access to your service or content during this time, you’ll need to reinstate access once the issue is resolved. If the subscription renews within 60 days, the days of paid service resume from the renewal date.</p> <p>To prevent service interruptions due to billing issues, enable Billing Grace Period in App Store Connect. Apple attempts to address the billing issue and recover the subscription while the subscriber retains subscription access. You can choose to apply Billing Grace Period to all renewals (existing paid renewals and free offers transitioning to paid renewals) or only to existing paid renewals. You can also set a duration of 3, 16, or 28 days. Be sure to consider what Billing Grace Period configuration best aligns with your business. If the subscription is recovered within the Billing Grace Period, there won’t be any interruption to the days of paid service or to your revenue. If someone resubscribes after 60 days, the days of paid service reset and you’ll receive the standard one-year subscription rate until the next year of paid service passes.</p> <p><strong>Price increase consent.</strong> When you increase the price of a subscription and Apple asks affected subscribers to agree to the new price, you can keep track of their consent status before the change takes effect. Before displaying the price increase sheet to affected users, you might show an in-app message that explains the benefits of the subscription and how the price increase improves the service. If someone doesn’t respond to the increase, their subscription expires at the end of their current billing cycle.</p> <p>Resources:</p> <ul class="small links"> <li class="document"><a href="/documentation/appstoreserverapi/">App Store Server API<span class="loc-en-only"></span></a></li> <li class="document"><a href="/documentation/appstoreservernotifications/">App Store Server Notifications<span class="loc-en-only"></span></a></li> <li class="document"><a href="/documentation/storekit/original_api_for_in-app_purchase/subscriptions_and_offers/reducing_involuntary_subscriber_churn/">Reduce involuntary subscriber churn<span class="loc-en-only"></span></a></li> <li class="document"><a href="/help/app-store-connect/manage-subscriptions/enable-billing-grace-period-for-auto-renewable-subscriptions/">Enable Billing Grace Period</a></li> </ul> <h3 id="managing-prices-for-existing-subscribers" data-sidenav>Managing prices</h3> <p>You can <a href="#territory">price your auto-renewable subscriptions by storefront</a> and choose from 800 price points across all available currencies and price tiers, with an additional 100 higher price points available upon request. After you set a starting price for your auto-renewable subscription, you can schedule one future price change at a time, per territory in App Store Connect.</p> <p><strong>Price decreases.</strong> If you decrease the price of your auto-renewable subscription, existing subscriptions will automatically renew at the lower price. You don’t have the option to preserve the higher price for existing subscribers. Existing subscribers don’t receive any communications and don’t need to take any action.</p> <p><strong>Price increases.</strong> When you increase the price of an auto-renewable subscription, Apple automatically provides push notifications, email, and in-app messaging to let subscribers know about the upcoming change and how to manage their subscription. Some price increases require subscribers to opt in, while smaller, infrequent price increases can result in notifications without the need to opt in.</p> <p>If needed, you can temporarily delay the in-app price consent sheet to avoid interrupting someone during a critical moment.</p> <p>You can keep an unlimited number of active subscribers at their existing price while increasing the price for new subscribers. If you don’t preserve the price for existing subscribers, and they need to consent, they must agree to the new price. If they don’t agree, their subscription expires at the end of their current billing cycle.</p> <p>If you have several cohorts of subscribers at different prices and want to move all subscribers to the current price, increase the price for those paying closest to the current price first (for example, $2.99 to $3.99), then the next closest, and so on. This ensures that people don’t experience multiple price increases. Before you make any pricing decisions, research your target market’s pricing expectations and weigh the potential impact of raising the price against retaining subscribers.</p> <figure class="graph graph-sidebar sidebar-graph-3 graph-wide large-3 medium-4 small-10 margin-top"> <div class="graph-unit deemphasize sidebar-3-unit-3" role="text"> <div class="graph-data"> <span class="graph-caption-total">$3.99</span> <div class="graph-bar-slot"> <div class="graph-bar"></div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="graph-unit deemphasize sidebar-3-unit-2" role="text"> <div class="graph-data"> <span class="graph-caption-total">$2.99</span> <div class="graph-bar-slot"> <div class="graph-bar"></div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="graph-unit sidebar-3-unit-1" role="text"> <div class="graph-data"> <span class="graph-caption-total">$1.99</span> <div class="graph-bar-slot"> <div class="graph-bar"></div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="pin-wrapper"> <div class="pin pin-vertical pin-vertical-top pin-1"> <span class="pin-caption">2022</span> </div> <div class="pin pin-vertical pin-vertical-top pin-2"> <span class="pin-caption">2023</span> </div> <div class="pin pin-vertical pin-vertical-top pin-3"> <span class="pin-caption">2024</span> </div> </div> <figcaption class="graph-caption"> <ul> <li>New subscribers in 2024 will pay $3.99.</li> <li>Subscribers since 2023 continue to pay $2.99.</li> <li>Subscribers since 2022 continue to pay $1.99.</li> </ul> </figcaption> </figure> <p>Resources:</p> <ul class="small links"> <li class="document"><a href="/help/app-store-connect/manage-subscriptions/manage-pricing-for-auto-renewable-subscriptions/">Manage pricing for auto-renewable subscriptions</a></li> <li class="video"><a href="/videos/play/tech-talks/110350/">Manage auto-renewable subscription pricing in App Store Connect</a></li> <li class="document"><a href="/documentation/storekit/skpaymentqueuedelegate/3521328-paymentqueueshouldshowpriceconse/">Delay the price consent sheet<span class="loc-en-only"></span></a></li> </ul> <h3 id="measuring-subscriptions-with-sales-and-trends" data-sidenav="Measuring performance">Measuring performance with Sales and Trends</h3> <p>View and analyze subscription data to better understand how your subscriptions are performing.

You can use the data on this page to help inform your strategy. For example, if your introductory offers have a low conversion rate, you might consider revising your in-app messaging to better explain your subscription’s value or extending the duration of the offers to give customers more time to experience your subscription’s value before making the decision to purchase.</p> <p><strong>Subscription state page.</strong> View your total active subscriptions based on their current state: standard price, introductory offers, promotional offers, and billing retry.
