Alexandar,
Could you please let me know, how you solved this problem? Did you add any
server layer for validating the purchase? Is it possible to validate loally
on the device.

Thank you guys for your replies. I still have no clear understanding of how
to handle this problem more efficiently but at least now I am sure it's not
entirely myself missing something important.
Still I refuse to believe there is no one that ever faced the same problem
in android developers
Kj, I did a research today, published my app through alpha testing on
Google Play and tried downloading it using several accounts. I can confirm
that IAB is NOT limited to primary Google account. Whichever account I use
for downloading the app from Google play is then used for IAB.

Weird, I didn't realize that the Google Play downloading account would be
used, although this makes sense. Ultimately though the user making the
purchase isn't configurable by your app since you'll be stuck with the
downloading Google account anyway.

Yes, that is my problem if I want to bind server side to Google account. I
can't rely on first account being the one I should use and I don't think
that something like showing an account picker and saying choose the
account you used for purchasing blah blah to create blah blah is a good
idea.
The Google IAB dialog has the Google account name that will be associated
with the purchase. In-app purchases are generally understood to be tied to
your Google account and apps you download/purchase are associated with the
account used in Google play. You could force your users to create user

I'm not saying that getting the Google account name via the API wouldn't be
useful, but unfortunately that doesn't exist right now. I agree that
forcing accounts is not user friendly and probably isn't a good idea for
the majority of apps, but it is an option that may be considered. Sticking
As others mentioned, IAB is limited to the primary Google account. Users
that need truly separated user accounts will use the multi-user accounts
options on Jelly Bean tablets, so their primary Google accounts will be
different. This isn't confusing: when you make a purchase with a Google
Thank you for your reply.
Are you sure, IAB is really tied to the primary account? I was sure about
that but this note in documentation confused me a lot:
*Note*: To make test purchases, the license test account must be on the
user’s Android device. If the device has more than one account, the
There must be no broken in one of such important part of the API. That's
why I'd really like to hear some official recommendations for handling
this. I refuse to believe there are no apps with IAB and server side data
with accounts.
Someone? Anyone?

It's hard to just move on when you kinda spent a year writing your app and
when the only thing left to do is to integrate it with billing :)

IAP with multiple accounts is in my opinion *broken*, even if I suspect
current behaviour is how Google intended it.
In my experience, in the presence of multiple accounts, the IAP code will
always pickup the first listed account, in the device's Google account list
in Settings, which may not
