RevenueCat made us their partner in Türkiye.

On 12 November 2025 RevenueCat announced Neon Apps as their partner for the Turkish market. Here is exactly what that covers, what it costs a Turkish team to use it, and why a company in San Francisco needed somebody here at all.

RevenueCat announced it on their own blog on 12 November 2025. The arrangement is one sentence long: any Turkish team building on RevenueCat can get help from us, in Turkish, and it costs them nothing.

What the support covers

  • Implementation across iOS, Android and web.
  • Migration from whatever billing you are on now.
  • Paywalls, experiments and the growth tooling most teams switch on and never configure.
  • Reading your own subscription numbers back to you, when the dashboard says something you did not expect.

The language part is not a courtesy

Subscription infrastructure is where the money is decided. The documentation is in English, and a developer debugging a renewal problem at midnight in their second language is a developer who will guess. Removing that is most of the value of this arrangement, and it is the part that cannot be done from San Francisco.

Why a platform wants a local partner at all

Türkiye is dense with app teams and light on the layer between a platform and the people using it. A company in San Francisco can ship excellent documentation and still lose a market because nobody there can answer a question in the language the question is asked in. Rather than open an office for that, you find people already doing it and make it official.

We were already doing it, unofficially and for free, because the teams asking were our peers.

Why us

We had been building on RevenueCat for years before anyone there knew our name, across hundreds of subscription apps for other companies. In that time we made most of the mistakes available: paywalls in the wrong place, trials priced by instinct, migrations we underestimated, receipts we misread. That is the entire qualification. Not a pitch, and not a badge.

What we get out of it

Standing. A company that spent its first years being nobody in particular now has a reason to be in the room, and when a Turkish team eventually needs a product built rather than a paywall fixed, they know who we are. That is the return, it is indirect, and it is worth saying out loud because the alternative is pretending the free support is charity.

It was also the first time in six years anybody asked us to run part of their operation instead of building their product. After 600 apps for other people, being handed responsibility rather than a specification was the unfamiliar part.

The other thing standing buys you: somebody points a camera at you and asks.

If you are on RevenueCat and Turkish, the support is there and it costs nothing. Use it. That is the only way the arrangement justifies itself.

Everything else written here comes out of the same place: work done for other companies, at a volume that made the patterns visible.
