Set a tax category for in-app purchases

By default, the tax category for in-app purchases is set to the same tax category as the app. To learn how to set the tax category for your app, visit Set a tax category. You can choose to set a different tax category for your in-app purchase if necessary.

Changes to your in-app purchase’s tax category only affect future transactions and won’t affect the price of your in-app purchase.

Required role: Admin, Marketing, or App Manager. View role permissions.

To change the tax category for a specific in-app purchase:

  1. From Apps, select your app.

  2. In the sidebar under Monetization, click In-App Purchases or Subscriptions.

  3. Click the in-app purchase you want to view or edit.

  4. Scroll down to the Tax Category section.

  5. Click the Edit button and select the tax category that best describes your in-app purchase.

    Depending on your selection, you may be asked to describe your in-app purchase further by selecting a subcategory and/or attributes.

  6. Click Save.

    Note: Once you change an in-app purchase’s tax category, it will be managed separately from the app’s tax category. Future changes to the app’s tax category won’t change the tax category of the in-app purchase.

To restore the tax category of an in-app purchase to the app default:

  1. From Apps, select your app.

  2. In the sidebar under Monetization, click In-App Purchases or Subscriptions.

  3. Click the in-app purchase you want to view or edit.

  4. Scroll down to the Tax Category section.

  5. Click Edit and select “Match to parent app.”

  6. Click Save.
