steps to reproduce: 1. Submit a a paid app 2. On the compatibility & Payments page, set pricetier = free and save changes (https://marketplace.allizom.org/developers/app/test-app-n7691/payments/) 3. Notice that the app status is now "pending approval" 4. Check the app out in Reviewer Tools- https://marketplace-dev.allizom.org/reviewers/apps/queue/?sort=created&order=desc observed behavior: The app's status is treated as if it were a free app however it is still marked as a paid app in the reviewer tools. What is the expected behavior here? My suggestion is that we move the section "Will your app have in-app payments?" and show the "Free" option in the drop-down box if the user selected "yes".
So looking at bug 857733 which is related it seems that: * Apps can be any tier and still have in-app e.g. it's not just free apps that can support in-app payments. * Rather than modifying the select (Free won't be discoverable if only appearing in the select under certain conditions) we can make sure selecting Free should default to in-app payments. I'd also suggest changing "Free" in the select to "Free with In-app payments" * When Free with in-app is selected the radio buttons should be set to In-app payments "yes" and disabled so it can't be turned off. This should then be validated on the backend too. * When a non-free tier is selected the disabled state of in-app payments is removed.

Stuart: r+ on this. I didn't test it out but if it only lets you submit a free app when it has in-app payments then I think that's the right thing to do. As for reviewer tools, don't they want in-app payment apps in the "paid" queue? See bug 859484 also.

I filed a bug to bring back the pricetier 0 for promotional apps The apps are still flagged as "paid" apps in reviewer tools which is a good thing. I will open new bugs for other issues around this feature.
