Sales of apps and games on Google Play are up by more than 300 percent over the past year. And today, two-thirds of Google Play purchases happen outside of the United States, with international sales continuing to climb. We�re hoping to fuel this momentum by making Google Play payments easier and more convenient for people around the world.
PayPal support
Starting today, we're making it possible for people to choose PayPal for their Google Play purchases in 12 countries, including the U.S., Germany, and Canada. When you make a purchase on Google Play in these countries, you'll find PayPal as an option in your Google Wallet; just enter your PayPal account login and you'll easily be able to make purchases. Our goal is to provide users with a frictionless payment experience, and this new integration is another example of how we work with partners from across the payments industry to deliver this to the user.
Carrier billing and Google Play gift cards in more countries
Carrier billing—which lets people charge purchases in Google Play directly to their phone bill—continues to be a popular way to pay. We�ve just expanded coverage to seven more countries for a total of 24, including Singapore, Thailand and Taiwan. That means almost half of all Google Play users have this option when making their purchases.
We�ve also made Google Play gift cards available to a total of 13 countries, including Japan and Germany.
Support for developer sales in more countries
Developers based in 13 new countries can now sell apps on Google Play (with new additions such as Indonesia, Malaysia and Turkey), bringing the total to 45 countries with support for local developers. We�ve also increased our buyer currency support to 28 new countries, making it even easier for you to tailor your pricing in 60 countries.
Nothing for you to do!
Of course, as developers, when it comes to payments, there�s nothing for you to do; we process all payments, reconcile all currencies globally, and make a monthly deposit in your designated bank account. This means you get to focus on what you do best: creating beautiful and engaging apps and games.
