Web Checkout iOS App Built for StoreKit Migration

No. The April 2025 Epic v. Apple ruling permanently barred Apple from requiring US developers to use its In-App Purchase system exclusively. You are legally permitted to offer a web checkout alternative inside your iOS app in the United States. Allocents is built specifically around this ruling, and its jurisdiction-aware routing ensures direct billing flows are only shown in eligible regions, keeping you compliant across markets.

Allocents renders a native-feeling bottom sheet that surfaces inside your app. It supports Apple Pay, Google Pay, and card entry. Users complete the entire payment flow without being redirected to an external browser or leaving the app. This native presentation is intentional — it preserves the feel of StoreKit checkout while routing the transaction through direct billing.

The SDK is designed for a 15-minute integration. It supports Swift and SwiftUI natively, as well as Kotlin, Flutter, and React Native. Allocents automatically syncs your existing products from App Store Connect so you do not need to manually recreate your SKU catalog. Most teams go from installation to a working test checkout in a single sitting.

Your existing StoreKit subscribers are not disrupted. Allocents introduces Switch and Save campaigns that surface an opt-in prompt to those subscribers, giving them an incentive to move to direct billing at renewal. You control the timing, copy, and discount level from the dashboard. Subscribers who do not interact with the prompt stay on StoreKit — migration is always opt-in and gradual.

Allocents offers two modes. Allocents Billing is a full Merchant of Record service at 5% + 50¢ per transaction — Allocents handles tax, chargebacks, fraud, and support on your behalf. Bring Your Own Stripe (BYOS) is priced at 0.5% of the revenue that Allocents' migration flows successfully move from StoreKit to direct billing; in this mode you connect your own Stripe account and retain all MoR responsibilities yourself.
