Timeline
- Jul 26, 2026, 23:06 UTCinvestigatingWe are investigating errors with Apple's services. We have enabled a temporary fallback mechanism that should provide limited functionality.
- Jul 27, 2026, 00:06 UTCidentifiedApple have acknowledged problems with multiple services. We will keep granting short-lived, temporary entitlements until the problem is resolved. Once the error rate returns to normal, we will disable this mitigation and revalidate the affected purchases.
- Jul 27, 2026, 00:32 UTCmonitoringWe're monitoring the Receipt Server for recovery Because we're unable to validate new purchases with the store, we're granting new users a short-term entitlement (at most 24 hours). This prevents customers from being denied access during exceptional situations, such as partial app store outages After connectivity is restored, if validation succeeds, expect a regular initial purchase. If validation fails, the temporary entitlements will expire
- Jul 27, 2026, 00:41 UTCmonitoringApple's Receipt Server is back up We're replaying purchases Temporary entitlements will either turn into 'real' purchases, or will expire, and related webhook and intergation events for the duration of the outage will start coming through
- Jul 27, 2026, 06:21 UTCmonitoringWe are continuing to replay impacted receipts. This does not impact customers that made purchases during the outage window as the temporary entitlement granted by RevenueCat will ensure a seamless transition. This incident will be closed out once all the purchases have been replayed.
- Jul 27, 2026, 09:50 UTCresolvedAll the impacted purchases have been replayed.
