Projects

A RevenueCat project is the top-level entity for RevenueCat - it's like a container for your apps, products, and entitlements. Once you've created a project and added your apps, you can implement the RevenueCat SDK in your app to start making purchases.

Within a project, you can also configure integrations like Webhooks, run Experiments, and create remotely configurable Paywalls.

Creating a Project​

To create a Project, click the '+ Create new project' button in the Projects dropdown panel at the top of the RevenueCat dashboard.

You can customize your project by setting a name as well as your global restore behavior for the apps in your Project.

Project Settings​

General Settings​

  • Project Name: The name of your project.
  • Project ID: The unique identifier for your project, used in the v2 API.
  • Restore Behavior: The behavior of the SDK when a user restores their purchases. Learn more.

Transferring Ownership​

📘Requirements
  1. Only the project's owner can transfer ownership
  2. Only a collaborator with the administrator role can receive project ownership
  3. If the project has a Stripe app, the recipient must have their Stripe account connected to the project before the transfer
  4. If the project uses the Apple Search Ads integration, it will need to be reconfigured after the transfer

Sending a transfer request​

Because a project's owner is responsible for billing, a project transfer request must be accepted by the recipient.

To send a transfer request to a collaborator, navigate to your project's Settings page, then click the Collaborators tab. Find the collaborator you want to transfer the project to, click the Actions icon, and click Transfer project ownership:

transfer project action button

Click Transfer project ownership in the confirmation modal:

confirm project transfer request

The recipient will receive an email notification to accept ownership of the project.

Accepting a transfer request​

Navigate to your project's Settings page, then click the Collaborators tab. Find your email address in the table and click the Accept project ownership link in the Status column:

accept a project transfer request link

Both the project owner and the recipient will see the Status as Transfer pending until the project transfer is complete.

If you run into any issues, or the project transfer takes more than 1-2 business days, please contact RevenueCat support.

Transferring apps between App Store Connect and Google Developer accounts

If you are changing the App Store Connect or Google Developer account, this will require credentials to be regenerated for both.

  • For Apple, these are the app-specific shared secret, the in-app purchase key, and the App Store Connect API key. The new owner will also want to make sure their Paid Applications Agreement is signed with Apple.

  • For Google, these are the service credentials. To reduce any downtime, we recommend the new owner generate these credentials in advance and test them on a RevenueCat project to make sure they are validated and working before the transfer.

If you've configured your project in the dashboard, it's time to connect to a store by adding your app.
