# 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.

# Restoring & Managing Purchases

Learn how users can manage and restore purchases made via the web.

When users purchase through web checkout, they can access their account details via a plan management page. This URL is included in their receipt, which is sent to their email after a successful purchase. To retrieve the link, users must enter the email they used during checkout. Otherwise, to offer this link manually you can use the following URL format:

```plaintext
https://{your URL in settings}.superwall.app/manage
```

By default, after a successful checkout, Superwall emails the address used at checkout with instructions and a redemption link to activate the purchase in your app. The email is sent from `Your app name <support+your-app-name@superwall.app>` with the subject `Your activation link from your app name`.

> **Warning:** If your app uses Sign in with Apple and customers may check out with **Hide My Email**, configure
> Apple's private email relay before launching web checkout. Apple can reject Superwall web checkout
> emails sent to `privaterelay.appleid.com` addresses unless `superwall.app` is registered as an
> email source. See [Web Checkout FAQ](/docs/web-checkout/web-checkout-faq#do-customers-who-use-sign-in-with-apple-hide-my-email-receive-web-checkout-emails)
> for setup steps.

If you want to disable these emails, use the "Disable Superwall Emails" setting in your Stripe app settings — see [how to disable the activation link email](/docs/support/web-checkout/3969573187-how-do-i-disable-the-activation-link-email-for-web-checkout).

When this page is visited, users enter the email they used during checkout to receive a link to manage their purchase:

For the above example, the URL would be `https://caffeinepal.superwall.app/manage`. After entering their email, they will receive a link to restore access, manage subscriptions, update payment methods, view their billing history, and more:
