To integrate StoreKit in your Flutter app, you would typically need to use platform channels to communicate between your Flutter code and native iOS code, as StoreKit is an iOS-specific framework. Here are some steps you might consider:

  1. Understand StoreKit 2: StoreKit 2 offers many improvements over the original StoreKit API, such as using the Swift Async/Await pattern for tasks like fetching product metadata and purchasing. It also provides automatic cryptographic validation and access to customer transaction history. You can learn more about these features in the What’s new in StoreKit and In-App Purchase session.

  2. Set Up StoreKit Configuration: You need to set up a StoreKit configuration file with your product metadata. This is essential for testing in-app purchases using Xcode previews. More details can be found in the What’s new in StoreKit and In-App Purchase session.

  3. Testing with Xcode: Utilize StoreKit testing in Xcode to ensure your in-app purchase flows work as expected. This includes testing purchase intents and handling billing issues. You can find more information on testing in the What’s new in StoreKit and In-App Purchase session.

  4. Use Platform Channels in Flutter: Implement platform channels to call native iOS code from your Flutter app. This involves writing Swift code to handle StoreKit operations and communicating with your Flutter code.

  5. Refer to Documentation: Check the StoreKit documentation on the Apple Developer website for detailed API usage and examples.

By following these steps, you can integrate StoreKit into your Flutter app to handle in-app purchases on iOS.
