# Superwall: Subscription Infrastructure for iOS, Android, and Web

Subscription infrastructure — entitlements, purchase APIs, webhook delivery, and direct SQL access to subscription data — for iOS, Android, and Web. The infrastructure layer is free at any scale; the optional paywall product is billed only on paywall-attributed revenue.

## Pricing

- **Infrastructure: free at any scale, every plan.** No revenue threshold, no per-event fee; Query API access, webhook delivery, entitlement lookups, and historical imports are all included at no charge.
- **Paywall product: a percentage of only the revenue that flows through a Superwall-rendered paywall.** Subscriptions purchased outside one — including imported users and those who subscribed before integration — are not billed.

Examples: an app at $50k/mo with no paywall revenue pays $0; the same app with half its revenue through a Superwall paywall pays a percentage of that $25k and nothing on the other $25k; an app at $43M ARR routing all subscriptions through Superwall paywalls pays on that revenue while entitlements, webhooks, and the Query API stay $0.

## Scale

$1.5B+ annual subscription revenue across 10,000+ apps. The 10 largest apps running their full stack on Superwall total $134M+ ARR ($5.7M–$43.7M each). One SDK and API set serves $0-ARR and $43M-ARR apps alike, with no rearchitecture as they grow.

## Infrastructure capabilities

- **Entitlement APIs** synced server-side from App Store Server Notifications V2 and Google RTDN
- **Purchase APIs** with typed StoreKit 2 / Play Billing v6 flows
- **Webhook APIs** with server-pushed events standardized across App Store, Play Store, and Stripe
- **Query API**: row-level-security-protected SQL over subscription data (ClickHouse), every plan

Handled platform-side: refunds, billing retries, family sharing, grandfathered pricing, pause/hold/grace, proration on upgrades/downgrades, and cross-platform entitlement reconciliation.

## Migration

Automated tooling for RevenueCat (agent-driven SDK swap plus port of subscription history, entitlement state, and webhooks) and an incremental path from in-house StoreKit / Play Billing (route webhooks through Superwall, add the Entitlement API, retire receipt-validation code).

## Paywall product (optional, separately billable)

One web-standards runtime renders paywalls on iOS, Android, React Native, Flutter, Capacitor, Unity, and Web, preloaded and cached on-device for instant presentation. Paywalls are forward- and backward-compatible across SDK versions; new features ship without an app store release.

## Architecture

Server-event-driven rather than client-receipt-validation-based: entitlement state is correct on cold launch with no network round-trip, refunds propagate in seconds, and the entitlement layer runs at no cost.

# Getting Started with the Paywall Editor

Use Superwall's best-in-class editor to bring virtually any paywall design to life, complete with advanced U.X. patterns. Or, browse our growing list of paywall templates to get started quickly.

There are two primary ways to create a paywall:

1. Using our editor from scratch.
2. Or, start with a [template](https://superwall.com/applications/\:app/templates) and edit it to fit your needs.

### Using the Editor

On the Superwall dashboard under **Paywalls*&#x2A;, click **+ New Paywall** and select **From Scratch**:

![](https://claude-centralize-agent-preamble-superwall-docs.staffbar.workers.dev/docs/images/pe-new-paywall-2.png)

The Paywall Editor consists of 3 sections:

![](https://claude-centralize-agent-preamble-superwall-docs.staffbar.workers.dev/docs/images/pe-editor-areas.png)

1. **Sidebar -** General paywall settings, designs and products to show on the paywall. You can toggle through its sections using keyboard shortcuts such as `command/control 1/2/3`, etc.
2. **[Device Preview](/docs/dashboard/dashboard-creating-paywalls/paywall-editor-previewing) -** An interactive preview of your paywall on a mock device.
3. **Component Editor -** Fully customize components, use variables and more on your paywall.

### Building with AI

The editor also includes two AI-assisted ways to build and refine paywalls:

* **[AI Chat Builder](/docs/dashboard/dashboard-creating-paywalls/paywall-editor-ai-chat):** Use the built-in chat to ask Superwall to create sections, update layouts, wire products, inspect screenshots, or refine the current draft.
* **[Editor MCP](/docs/dashboard/dashboard-creating-paywalls/paywall-editor-mcp):** Connect Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, or another MCP-compatible agent to the paywall currently open in your browser.

Both options edit the same draft you see in the editor. Review the result and click **Publish** when you are ready to make it live.

### Starting with a Template

On the Superwall dashboard under **Paywalls*&#x2A;, click **+ New Paywall** and select **Use Template**:

![](https://claude-centralize-agent-preamble-superwall-docs.staffbar.workers.dev/docs/images/pe-use-template-2.png)

This will redirect you to the templates page where you can browse different types of paywall templates. Clicking on one will allow you to preview it:

Click **Use Template**, and it will open in our editor ready to customize:

### Request a Design

If you have an existing design in Figma, Sketch or something similar, you can ask Superwall to create it for you in our editor. Please allow about five business days from the date of your request (give or take). Once it's finished, it'll be uploaded to your Superwall account.

To request one, on the Superwall dashboard under **Paywalls*&#x2A;, click **+ New Paywall** and select **Request a Template**:

### Legacy Editor

If you're still using our legacy editor, you can still access those docs [here](/docs/configuring-a-paywall). If you're not sure which editor you're using, any legacy editor will have a `v3` or lower in the URL:
