Is there a way to know if a purchase is being made using an 'always approves' Test Card?

Hi folks,

Our QA Team do a lot of tests using the 'always approves' Test Card on Android, but the Analytics from these purchases are influencing our Analysis Team.
Do you know if it is possible to distinguish a test purchase from a real purchase using the Unity IAP package?

Cheers,
Vitaliano

 

No unfortunately there is not. We are redesigning the flow over the next few months, I will ensure to bring this up.

 

Thanks for the reply.
We will end up using this API on our server.

 

Does that API differentiate test purchases?

 

The object it returns contains an property named 'purchaseType' which is set when the purchase was done with any other method than regular credit card with the following possible values:
0. Test (i.e. purchased from a license testing account) 1. Promo (i.e. purchased using a promo code) 2. Rewarded (i.e. from watching a video ad instead of paying)

 

Got it, thanks. I have passed this along to engineering.

 

Hello!
Is there an update to this? Analytics are still showing test purchases for us which are very misleading and hard to remove manually from our calculations.

 

With the new Analytics beta going live soon, you can use separate environments, like Test and Development, for your test purchases. I would encourage you to try the beta https://support.unity.com/hc/en-us/articles/4408915768724-General-FAQ
