    In Google Play directions for creating IAP promo codes (https://support.google.com/googleplay/android-developer/answer/6321495?hl=en), they mention some specific steps:
    "If you want to offer promo codes for in-app purchases, you need to integrate In-app Promotions in your app."

    Is this automatically included in Unity IAP, do we need to set up something extra? I'm asking because my app has Unity IAP working, but there seems to be no way to create a promo code for it in Google Play interface.

    No, nothing else should be needed. Are you following the steps listed in the link you shared?
    1. Go to your Play Console.
    2. Select an app.
    3. Select User acquisition > Promotions > Add new promotion.
    4. Review and agree to the Terms of Use.
    5. Follow the on-screen instructions to name your promotion, set up start and end dates, select your promotion type, and enter the number of promo codes you want to create.
    6. To turn the promotion on during the start and end dates you entered, set the status to On.
    7. Select Create.
    8. Wait several seconds and select the download link.
    Your codes will download to a CSV file.

    Send them an email or similar, and let them know they can purchase for free. There is no callback. When the user purchases, it will look like a normal purchase, but they won't be charged.
