Frequently Asked Questions

Do I have to use Apple/Google in-app purchases?
For digital goods consumed within iOS/Android apps, you typically must use Apple/Google IAP and pay their 15-30% commission. For physical goods or services, you can use third-party payment providers.
What is the best payment SDK for mobile apps?
Stripe, Braintree, and Adyen all offer excellent mobile SDKs with native iOS/Android support, pre-built UI components, and Apple Pay/Google Pay integration.
How do I optimize mobile checkout conversion?
Use one-click payments (saved cards, digital wallets), minimize form fields, support biometric authentication, and offer local payment methods. Apple Pay/Google Pay can increase mobile conversion by 30-50%.
