    Well, nothing? No one are using promo-code?
    We have tested on google and is not working.
    Is there any tutorial or steps from Unity team to get Promo-code working?
    Kind regards.

    Now promo code on google are working, testing on apple store right now.

    Hi @MrPacoGP,

    You should not need to do anything special to redeem promo codes with Unity IAP. You'll need to get set up with the codes in the Google Developer Console, but after that it should work the same as a regular purchase. Are you not seeing this behavior?

    I have promo codes working like this..
    user redeems code in googleplay
    user clicks on the iap button that buys what the redeem code redeems in the game
    user cancels the purchase on payment request
    item is granted free (from code)

    Is there a way to remove the buying/cancelling part so that the user redeems code, launches game and then item is granted?

    Hi @mrm83,

    It sounds like the user is redeeming from the Google play app store (like the second option described under Creating and Redeeming Promo Codes here: https://developer.android.com/google/play/billing/billing_promotions.html)?

    Which version of IAP are you on? As of IAP 1.6.0, the user shouldn't need to click on the iap button to redeem the purchase. There was a bug with promo codes not being recognized if the app is open, until it's restarted, this was fixed in 1.8.0. Try updating to the latest version of IAP if you're not already on it and let us know how it works after!

    (You can see more info about the promo code changes by version in the changelog: http://forum.unity3d.com/threads/unity-iap-store-package-1-8-1-is-now-available.415517/)
