What are Google Play Store server-to-server notifications used for?

Google Play Store Server-to-server notifications are used to get real-time notifications of purchases and events associated to in-app purchase events or subscription lifecycle events.

They consist in messages, sent by the Google Play Store, every time an event occurs on a subscription. For instance, a message is sent when a subscription :

• is purchased
• is renewed
• is cancelled (auto-renewing cancelled by user for the following billing period)
• is refund
• gets expired
• encounters a billing issue
  …

The server-to-server notifications are not mandatory for making subscriptions work, but they are very valuable in the sense that they bring a real-time and comprehensive vision for the app editor.
