If you don't know much about In-App Purchases, you'll find a good introduction on the subject here: In-App Purchase Guidelines. It's from Apple, but the exact same concepts apply to Android.
You probably want to start by installing the plugin into your project. This is documented in the Setup Guide
Once your project is setup properly, add the minimal initialization code in your project and check that it works. You'll find a Minimal Example Here.
Find a more Complete Example Here.
If you can't get things to work, go through the Troubleshooting Checklist. (coming soon)
