Apphud vs Tebex

Apphud provides subscription infrastructure and analytics for in-app purchases on iOS and Android. Its SDKs support iOS, Android, React Native, Flutter and Unity, and the service includes web access and an API. Teams can manage in-app purchases and auto-renewable subscriptions without server code. The dashboard reports subscription measures including MRR, retention, churn, ARPU, trial conversions, proceeds and refunds. A/B experiments let teams test purchases and paywalls, while Apphud says it validates App Store and Google Play receipts without server code. Integrations include analytics, attribution, messaging and notification services, as well as custom webhooks and APIs. Apphud Rules can offer discounts to retain or win back subscribers, but Rules are iOS-only. The free plan includes one seat and $10,000 MTR; after its grace period, renewals stop being tracked and dashboard access is unavailable. Pro costs $49 a month and includes five seats and online chat support.

Tebex provides storefronts and payment processing for digital goods sold by game servers and studios. Its in-game stores and webstores can offer items, subscriptions, season passes, and DLCs, with options to customize the storefront. Developers can connect through Webstore Builder, Headless API, or Checkout API; the latter requires prior compliance approval and is not available to some user-generated-content creators, including FiveM and RedM creators. Tebex lists more than 130 local and global payment methods and says it acts as Merchant of Record, handling sales-tax calculation, collection, and remittance. Fraud detection and chargeback handling are included, and Tebex says it manages disputes. Official server plugins cover Minecraft, Hytale, Rust, ARK, and FiveM, which also has a built-in integration. The free Starter plan has a 5% platform fee for most games and 15% for FiveM. Plus costs £12.49/mo. New stores receive a free 90-day Plus trial without providing payment details.
