RevenueCat invites you to their event

Understanding App Store Payments and Accounting

About this event

Did you know it can take 40+ days for Apple to collect payment on an App Store purchase?! Or that Apple pays developers exactly 33 days after each fiscal month?

If you work in the app industry, having a better understanding of how the app stores collect and remit payments is surprisingly interesting and useful.

Topics we’ll cover:

  • Apple and Google’s fiscal calendars & payment dates
  • Apple’s payment reports as the only financial source of truth
  • The challenge of using accrual accounting for an app business
  • The impact of conversion rates on payments
  • Delayed payment collection via grace periods, transaction bundling, and more
  • Global regulatory compliance and tax withholding
  • Refunds, chargebacks, and failed transactions
  • Payment thresholds
