Gamepass prompt still firing after player has purchased it

Hello, Everybody

I have a store in my game where the player can buy gamepasses. Lets the player purchases a gamepass, but if he clicks again on the button he can purchase it again. That is the problem i am facing right now. A player can purchase 1 gamepass multiple times

local Script

local Players = game:GetService("Players")

local gamePassID = 63974938  

local purchase = script.Parent

local MarketplaceService = game:GetService("MarketplaceService")

local function promptPurchase()
	local player = Players.LocalPlayer
	local hasPass = false

	local success, message = pcall(function()
		hasPass = MarketplaceService:UserOwnsGamePassAsync(player.UserId, gamePassID)
	end)

	if not success then
		warn("Error while checking if player has pass: " .. tostring(message))
		return
	end

	if hasPass then
		print("Gamepass is owned")
		-- Player already owns the game pass; tell them somehow
	else
		print("Gamepass not owned")
		-- Player does NOT own the game pass; prompt them to purchase
		MarketplaceService:PromptGamePassPurchase(player, gamePassID)
	end
end

purchase.Activated:Connect(promptPurchase)

The gamepass-owned print statement never runs even if the game pass actually is. I think the UserOwnsGamePassAsync built-in function might not work.

look into MarketPlaceService.PromptGamePassPurchaseFinished, might be able to help you

You need to locally store the ownership state temporarily until the player leaves

The ownership API only periodically updates from the website, so its better to do what @2016Richman suggested

I will try running that then I will check if the purchase was a success, if the purchase was successful then I will disable the button to purchase the pass. If the purchase was not successful I can print something indicating that the purchase was not successful. Anyways Ty for the idea.
