The Purchasely team.
Purchasely was featured on main stage by Google Firebase
On October 18, Purchasely was featured by Google at one of its major events, FirebaseSummit.
The keynote presenter was Sonakshi Watel, who is the UX design lead in charge of Firebase Extensions Marketplace. She made a great demo of Firebase’s new Extensions Marketplace.
“I need In-App payments, let’s see if I can find an extension to help me with that.
I see In-App Purchases by Purchasely, I’ve heard of them before and their no-code payment solution … I see this big button to install in the Console which seems pretty straightforward. So that was pretty easy, I can now install and integrate the Purchasely extension into my mobile app giving my customers the ability to order on the go.”
Thank you very much to the Firebase team for shining a spotlight on Purchasely! 🙏
Paywall Optimization Do's and Don’ts
When looking at many subscription funnel management practices, we notice the common discrepancy of maturity between the top of the funnel (pre-acquisition) and the bottom of the funnel (post-acquisition).
That’s why our CEO & Co-founder Nicolas Tissier just released an article where he explains
the shift from Paid UA to subscription-based funnel optimization,
how the subscription model can help you grow if powered by a change of mindset and experiments,
and the importance of working on the leaks at every stage of the post-acquisition funnel.
[Paywall Optimization Do’s]
🧪 Adopt an experimentation mindset
💬 Talk to the users
✔ Set the expectations early on and be transparent
🎯 Multiply the touchpoints
🪡 Provide intensely curated paywall experience to each user segment

If you sell subscriptions in your app(s), you must ensure that your app(s) clearly disclose how a user can manage or cancel their subscription. You must also include in your app access to an easy-to-use, online method to cancel the subscription. In your app’s account settings (or equivalent page), you can satisfy this requirement by including:
A link to Google Play’s Subscription Center (for apps that use Google Play’s billing system); and/or direct access to your cancellation process.
