To be able to validate a purchase, we need to communicate with the store, on your behalf.

This communication is done through a service account.

The service account can be created by following this procedure:

1. Connect to your Play console
2. Access Settings > API access page and enable the API if it is not the case
3. Click on Create service account
4. You are then prompted with the detailed process to create the service account. Click on the first link.
5. Click on Create service Account in the newly opened tab
6. Fill in the form with the information requested
7. Grant the role Project > Viewer
8. Create a new key and select the JSON type. NB : Keep this file in a safe place as it will be used in the consent settings page to finish Fair choice configuration
9. Validate the creation of the service account
10. You can now go back to your Play console and refresh the page. The newly created service account will appear in the service account list
11. Grant access to the corresponding service account
12. Grant Finance role to the service account
13. Optional - you can choose to allow the service account to only access the apps on which you intend to use Fair Choice
