Android In-App Subscriptions and Purchase Verification

You can now automatically log in-app subscriptions and verify purchases using a Google Play Service Account.

With this feature, you can:

  • Automatically log subscription information fetched from Google Play
  • Verify the legitimacy of every purchase made within your app by validating purchase receipts with Google Play

This helps ensure that the purchase data you see in Facebook Analytics or use to measure, target, or optimize your ad campaigns on Facebook is accurate and not distorted by fraudulent purchases.
