in-app 'Waiting for upload' - but game is waiting for review?

DigiChain

I've just setup my first in-app (to unlock full game). I've setup the in-app with apple and now uploaded my project but the in-app still says waiting for upload.

Also - in the in-app section it says:
The first In-App Purchase for an app must be submitted for review at the same time that you submit an app version. You must do this on the Version Details page.

I can't see anything on the version details page that seems to be referring to.

Does anyone know where I've gone wrong?

Hi @DigiChain I've yet to upload an app that uses IAP so this is a guess only:

Before the app is uploaded (or to activate it once it's uploaded... hopefully for you) you need to click the Manage In-App Purchases button in the app information section... then set up the IAP stuff there by clicking the Create New button...I think... hope that helps.

Hi @gyroscope. Unfortunately that doesn't seem to be it as I setup the in-app before uploading. I can't really see what I'm missing.

Ah, sorry I couldn't help... it's most odd then, isn't it... how about: is your Application Loader the latest version? (2.9) (I'm clutching at straws here really...)

I have a complete video series on IAP.

As far as I remember there is a section for IAP at the bottom of the App details page, and you have to go in there to activate the IAP's for that version.

Hope this helps!

@DigiChain check on itunes Contracts, Tax, and Banking if everything is ok, enable IAP before loading the binary

Thanks guys - seems to be sorted now.
I'd somehow checked the 'Apple to host content' option within the in-app setup, and I think this had removed the in-app options at the bottom of the details page.
