FAQ

Your questions, answered

Yes. Adapty’s Paywall Builder works in observer mode, so you can keep your current purchase infrastructure and use Adapty only to build, target, and test paywalls. Your app completes purchases with its own code and reports the transactions to Adapty for analytics. Talk to us about a custom plan.

Yes, while the revenue Adapty tracks for your app stays under $5,000 a month. The Pro plan includes the Paywall Builder, A/B testing, and analytics. Above that, Adapty charges 1% of tracked monthly revenue. Using only the builder with your own purchase setup? Talk to us about custom pricing. See pricing for details.

Yes. Adapty is a no-code paywall builder for mobile apps. Describe the paywall to Adapty’s AI Editor or your own coding agent, and it builds the screen for you. Fine-tune the result in the visual editor, then publish. Your agent or developer installs the SDK once. After that, paywall updates ship without an app release.

Adapty paywalls render natively on iOS and Android. Adapty has SDKs for Swift, Kotlin, React Native, Flutter, Unity, Kotlin Multiplatform, and Capacitor, so the builder works in cross-platform apps too, including React Native apps built with Expo. Paywalls from the Flow & Paywall Builder need Adapty SDK 4.0 or later.

To set up a paywall, install the Adapty SDK, or let your coding agent run the whole integration with Adapty’s agent skills. Build the screen from a prompt, a template, or a Figma frame, connect your App Store and Google Play products, and attach the paywall to a placement. After that one-time setup, you publish new paywalls without an app release. The quickstart guide walks through every step.

Yes. Your agent or developer integrates the Adapty SDK and ships it in one app release. After that, you change paywall layouts, copy, product selections, and offers in Adapty and publish them instantly. Users see the new version the next time the paywall loads.

Yes. Describe the paywall in Adapty’s AI Editor or attach a reference screenshot, and it builds or restyles the screen. Keep refining with prompts or edit visually. The result stays an editable native paywall, and you publish it without an app release.

Yes. Install Adapty’s agent skills in Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, or GitHub Copilot CLI. Describe the paywall or share a screenshot, and your agent builds it, edits it, or creates test variants from a working paywall. Review the result in the visual editor before you publish.

Yes. The builder includes ready-made templates you can edit. You can also import a Figma frame, or hand a screenshot to the AI Editor and get an editable native paywall. For ideas, browse the Adapty Paywall Library: 10,000+ paywalls from top subscription apps, grouped by category.

A paywall builder is a tool for creating the screen where mobile app users buy a subscription and publishing it remotely, without an app release. In Adapty’s Paywall Builder, you describe the paywall to AI or arrange it in a visual editor, then connect it to A/B testing, targeting, and revenue analytics in one tool.

Yes. Change any element: layout, fonts, colors, backgrounds, images, video, and product cards. Do it by hand in the visual editor, or describe the change to the AI Editor or your coding agent. Import a Figma frame to start from your own design. If your team wants full control in code, Adapty also supports custom paywalls built with remote config.

Yes. Run up to 20 paywall variants in one test and split traffic evenly or with custom weights. Adapty compares conversion, revenue per 1,000 users, and predicted revenue, and shows each variant’s probability to be best. Your coding agent can spin up new variants from a working paywall, and you launch and stop tests with no app release. More on paywall A/B testing.

Yes. Target paywalls by country, language, platform, app version, subscription status, or custom attributes. Adapty also targets by acquisition source, down to the Apple Ads keyword or Meta ad that brought the user in. You can route users by onboarding answers and run A/B tests within each audience.
