In-app Purchase "ready to submit", but won't let me submit it

Jake picture Jake · May 22, 2011 · Viewed 32.2k times · Source

I have some in-app purchases setup for an application. The in-app purchases are all tested, and working great - however I can't submit them for review. I submitted the application binary for review, then visited the in-app purchase section. All of the in-app purchases say: "Ready to Submit", but the "Submit for Review" button is greyed out, and un-clickable.

When apple reviews the actual application, will they also just review the in-app purchases for it? Or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks.

Update: I don't know if it was by switching to Chrome, or by waiting 30 minutes or so, but it enabled me to submit my in-app-purchases for review.

I was having the same problem. It would not let me submit my In app purchases to my app, which I uploaded shortly beforehand. I had to reject the binary, then follow the directions below to add the IAP to the app version before uploading.

  1. Go to iTunes Connect
  2. Click on Manage your applications
  3. Click on the App
  4. Click "View Details" button
  5. Scroll down until you see an "In App Purchase" Section
  6. Add your In App Purchase to that version.
  7. Then ready your app for upload.

Once these steps are complete, the In App Purchase should automatically change from "Ready to Submit" to "Waiting for Review".
