Do Progressive Web Apps support in-app purchases?

Yes, Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) do support in-app purchases. Although PWAs are built using web technologies and are accessed through a web browser, they can provide a native-like app experience, including the ability to make in-app purchases. The Payment Request API is utilized in PWAs to enable in-app purchases. This API allows users to securely make payments using stored payment information and supported payment platforms.
