RevenueCat experienced a 10.8-hour major incident where Apple's Receipt Server was unavailable, preventing purchase validation. During the outage, RevenueCat mitigated the impact by granting users short-term temporary entitlements (up to 24 hours) to maintain access. Once Apple's services recovered, all affected purchases were replayed and converted to verified entitlements, with associated webhook and integration events processed to close out the incident.

All the impacted purchases have been replayed.
We 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.
Apple'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
We'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
Apple 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.
We are investigating errors with Apple's services. We have enabled a temporary fallback mechanism that should provide limited functionality.
