Integrate the IAP SDK into Your App
To prepare for integrating IAP features and testing the integration, perform the following.
Download the IAP SDK and sample apps
Download the IAP SDK from this site.
The zipped file contains the SDK and sample projects that uses the IapHelper:
Location | Module | Description |
---|---|---|
./Libs | IAP6Helper | IAP SDK |
./Samples | IAP6Sample | Sample Java app using IAP SDK |
./Samples | IAP6SampleKotlin | Sample Kotlin app using IAP SDK |
Create a project with a unique package name
Create a project in Android Studio with a package name that is different from the app registered in other app stores.
Add the IAP SDK to your app
-
Click File → Project Structure → Dependencies tab.
-
Select your app module and click + → JAR/AAR Dependency from Declared Dependencies.
-
Add the library path and click OK.
-
Check the build.gradle file.
Add permissions to AndroidManifest.xml
Add these permissions to AndroidManifest.xml:
com.samsung.android.iap.permission.BILLING
to connect to IAP and enable in-app item registration in Seller Portal.android.permission.INTERNET
because IAP uses the internet.
<uses-permission android:name="com.samsung.android.iap.permission.BILLING"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>
Register an app and in-app items in Seller Portal
During IAP integration, you may need to test IAP features.
Samsung IAP needs information about your app and in-app items registered in Seller Portal.
With the com.samsung.android.iap.permission.BILLING
permission added to your app’s AndroidManifest.xml file, you can register an incomplete app and one or more in-app items.
As IAP integration proceeds, you can upload new versions of your app and new in-app items as needed.
