# 17.1 Android Setup

## Setup Payment Profile

From your **Google Developer Console Account > Setup > Payment Profile**, you need to add your payment profile. Like adding your bank account. If you have already added that, you can ignore it.

## License Testing Setup

In this step, you need to add some **testers** who can test the IAP product in the app and purchase points without any real payment.

**From your Google Developer Console Account > Setup > License testing**, Add some email addresses.

## Upload Initial Build at Google Play Store

To activate IAP for your app in the Google Play Store, you need to add the **billing permission** in the code section and upload an initial build at the Google Play Store as **Close Testing**. (Only the testers you will assign in the upcoming step can test the app). You shouldn't upload it on production.

#### Add the Billing Permission

From the App source code, Go to the **quiz\_app/android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml** file and **enable** the selected line shown in the picture below. This permission will enable the billing and IAP at the google play store.

{% hint style="info" %}
If you already uploaded your app in production and released it at the google play store, you also need to follow the same step (Add billing permission and upload it as a Close Testing version).
{% endhint %}

Without uploading any new version in the **Closed Testing**, you won't get the IAP features.

{% hint style="info" %}
Before going to the next steps, make sure you have uploaded a new build in the Closed Testing and published it.
{% endhint %}

## Configure In-App Purchases

After publishing a new version with Close testing, you will get an In-App purchases option on your app sidebar.

#### Create IAP Products

From **Your App > Monetize >** **In-app products**, create an IAP product by clicking on the **Create product** button.&#x20;

Add **Product ID**.

{% hint style="info" %}
Product ID can be anything but unique. If you are using the IAP in **iOS** also, then make sure that both product IDs are the same.
{% endhint %}

Add **Product Name** which will be shown on the app. You should write how many points you want to sell here. Like **60 Points**. Add a Description of the product. This can be anything.

{% hint style="info" %}
Don't enter anything else in the Name. Just write how many points you want to sell (Like in the picture below)
{% endhint %}

#### Pricing Setup

Set your price and Click on **Apply Changes**.

Save the product. That's it.

{% hint style="info" %}
You can create as many IAP products as you want in this way.
{% endhint %}
