Check Our Distribution Policy for Full Legal Terms

This page does not replace the need to consult our Distribution Policy. Please review it here to fully understand all applicable legal terms.

On the Aptoide Connect Console, you have the option to select whether you want us to calculate and manage taxes on your app's In-App Purchases (IAPs). You can review the list of sales taxes applicable for each country and identify which ones we can manage on your behalf. However, it's important to note that Aptoide Connect is not able to offer tax advice. For guidance on how taxes may affect you and your end-users, please consult with your tax advisor.

To access the Taxes Policy menu, go to the My Apps menu and click on the Taxes Policy button.

"With Taxes"

If the feature is turned on - which is done by clicking on the "With Taxes" button - we will calculate the NET amount and the sales taxes will be applied to every In-App Purchase made on your apps in countries where we can handle the payment processing. Also, we will remit taxes to the relevant authorities on your behalf. In other countries, we will not apply sales taxes to the In-App Purchases made on your apps.

You can check the sales tax country list by clicking on "See rates by country" on the upper-right side of this section. There you will be able to see which sales taxes will be handled by us.

How we calculate taxes:

For countries where we process sales taxes, if an item's base price is 1 EUR and the country's sales tax is 23%, this means that 1 EUR = NET amount + NET amount * 0.23, which becomes 1 EUR = 1.23 * NET amount and then becomes NET amount = 1 EUR / 1.23 which is 0.81 EUR. You receive 0.60 EUR, which is 75% (your revenue share) of the NET amount (where the NET amount is 0.81 EUR). The sales tax amount (which would be 0.19 EUR) we keep it on our side and will handle the payment to the authorities process.

This means that what is defined by you on your Aptoide Connect Console equals the amount paid by end-users at the time of payment and the price of IAPs shown on your app to the end-user is tax inclusive.

"No Taxes"

In case the sales tax feature is off and there is a transaction of an item with a base price of 1 EUR we give you, the developer, 75% of that value: 0.75 EUR. Without taxes, 1 EUR = NET amount.
This means that you, the developer, must calculate and process all sales taxes on your app's items. Aptoide Connect is unable to provide you with tax advice and you should always consult your tax advisor.
