It also supports third-party payment providers such as Stripe and Coda, enabling transactions outside the App Store and Google Play. Unity hosts the web shop at no additional cost; developers only pay fees to the payment provider they choose. Product catalogs for both native stores and the custom shop can be managed from a single interface, with unified price localization and cross-platform purchase tracking.
