expo-iap vs react-native-iap

[hakanolgun]

I am about to implement in-app subscriptions in my app, but I still haven’t understood which package I should use. Both packages README files claim they can be used with Expo development builds.

I am using Expo BUT I don’t use EAS. I build and upload new versions to the Apple App Store and Google Play Store myself.

Can someone tell me which package I should use?

Here are my package versions, if needed:

"expo": "~54.0.27",
"react": "19.1.0",
"react-native": "0.81.5"

If you’re using Expo, expo-iap is a better fit, as it’s built on Expo Modules and offers better compatibility with the Expo ecosystem.
