# Acquire apps in Windows Store for Business

## App licensing model
The Business store supports two options to license apps: online and offline. **Online** licensing is the default licensing model and is similar to the Windows Store. Online licensed apps require users and devices to connect to the Store for Business service to acquire an app and its license. **Offline** licensing is a new licensing option for Windows 10. With offline licenses, organizations can cache apps and their licenses to deploy within their network. ISVs or devs can opt-in their apps for offline licensing when they submit them to the developer center. Admins control whether or not offline apps are available in Store for Business with an offline app visibility setting. For more information, see [offline license visibility](https://technet.microsoft.com/itpro/windows/manage/update-windows-store-for-business-account-settings#offline-licensing).

Some apps which are available to consumers in the Windows Store might not be available to organizations in the Windows Store for Business. App developers can opt-out their apps, and they also need to meet eligibility requirements for Windows Store for Business. For more information, read this info on [Organizational licensing options](https://msdn.microsoft.com/windows/uwp/publish/organizational-licensing).
**Note**<br>
We are still setting up the catalog of apps for Windows Store for Business. If you are searching for an app and it isn’t available, please check again in a couple of days.
Line-of-business (LOB) apps are also supported using the Store for Business. Admins can invite IT devs and ISVs to be LOB publishers. Apps developed by your LOB publishers that are submitted to the Store are only available to your organization. Once an administrator accepts an app submitted by one of their LOB publishers, the app can be distributed just like any other app from Store for Business. For more information, see Working with Line-of-Business apps.

## In-app purchases
Some apps offer you the option to make in-app purchases. In-app purchases are not currently supported for apps that are acquired through Store for Business and distributed to employees.
If an employee makes an in-app purchase, they'll make it with their personal Microsoft account and pay for it with a personal payment method. The employee will own the item purchased, and it cannot be transferred to your organization’s inventory.
