  • Consumable purchases docs

  • Non-Consumable purchases docs

  • Non-Consumable purchases using iOS 6 hosted content docs

NOTE: it does NOT demonstrate RECEIPT VERIFICATION, so you'll have to add this in yourself.

Check out @redth's server-side code to help build your own receipt verification logic with ASP.NET:

FYI the sample code is based in-part on @jtclancey's AppStore code here:

Setup

There's a bit of set-up required for In-App Purchases (registering your bank details with Apple, setting up the products in the iOS Developer Portal, Provisioning your app correctly). These steps are the same for MonoTouch and Objective-C, so Apple's setup doco might help [1]. You should also read Apple's In-App Purchase programming docs [2], for familiarity.
