TestFlight: JPN storefront but StoreKit 1 and 2 return USD 1.99; purchase sheet shows JPY
I am preparing the first release of my iOS game, Ippon Battle, and testing it on my own physical devices through TestFlight. I am looking for a supported workaround or further diagnostics for inconsistent product prices, and guidance on whether the same behavior can occur in production. Feedback report: FB25378742 (filed October 31, 2026; currently Open). Apple Developer Support directed me to Feedback Assistant for bug reporting and these forums for technical help. The feedback report includes screenshots and the app-specific identifiers. Environment and observations iPhone 15, iOS 27.0.1 (24A446). App version 1.7.11; raw catalog diagnostics were captured in TestFlight build 41. Two non-consumable products: ipponbattle.fighters5 (Japan: JPY 300) and ipponbattle.story (Japan: JPY 400). The Sandbox account is configured for Japan. The iPhone diagnostic reported Storefront country JPN and currency JPY. Japan prices were independently read-verified through the App Store Connect API on October 21, 2026. I have not changed prices as a troubleshooting step. For each exact product ID, native StoreKit calls returned: Product.products(for:): price = 1.99, priceFormatStyle.currencyCode = USD SKProductsRequest: price = 1.99, priceLocale currency = USD This occurred for BOTH products, despite their different configured Japanese prices. The original in-game shop displayed $1.99 for each. The fighter pack's Apple purchase confirmation sheet showed JPY 300. On a second physical device, an iPad running TestFlight build 44, a screenshot shows the story product at $1.99 in the shop behind Apple's purchase sheet showing JPY 400. The sheet explicitly identifies it as a test purchase with no charge. I did not capture raw storefront/API diagnostics on that iPad, so I am not assuming its internal storefront state was identical to the iPhone trace. Both products were successfully test-purchased in earlier tests. Restoration and ownership after relaunch also worked. The issue is the product metadata price/currency, rather than an inability to complete a purchase. Reproduction procedure Install the app through TestFlight and use the Japan-configured Sandbox account. Request the two product IDs with Product.products(for:) and inspect the returned product IDs, price, priceFormatStyle.currencyCode, and displayPrice alongside the current Storefront. Independently request the same IDs through SKProductsRequest and inspect price and priceLocale. Compare those values with the configured Japan prices and Apple's purchase confirmation sheet. Checks and mitigation Signing out of the Apple account did not resolve the problem. Product data is matched by product ID, not response order. There is no fixed USD fallback or persistent price cache in the app. The TestFlight build does not use a local StoreKit configuration file. These are native API results, not simulated UI test responses. The app refreshes product information when the shop opens and clears old quotes on refresh, failure, or storefront changes. StoreKit 1 is used only to cross-check catalog data. Purchases, transaction verification, and restoration remain on StoreKit 2. As a temporary mitigation for this Japan-only app, prices that cannot be verified as JPN/JPY are hidden. I do not relabel USD amounts as yen, convert them, or substitute hard-coded JPY prices. This prevents the misleading display but does not solve retrieval of the correct catalog prices. Questions Is a mismatch between StoreKit product metadata and the purchase sheet a known TestFlight/Sandbox behavior? Is there any supported way to determine whether production is affected before a first public release? What supported recovery or refresh procedure should I try to retrieve prices consistent with the purchase sheet, beyond re-requesting products and signing out/in? What additional diagnostics, logs, or reproduction details would help the StoreKit team investigate FB25378742? I found a similar report, but I do not know whether it has the same cause. I have not isolated the cause to the catalog service, OS, or account. Thank you.
