Google Play is committed to help connect our users with apps and games they’ll love, while providing critical security protections. We also invest in a global commerce infrastructure that enables people to safely, securely and reliably pay for their purchases. For developers, we invest in comprehensive tools, resources and infrastructure that help them build great apps, lower their development costs and grow their businesses. Listening carefully to developer and user feedback is integral to how we continue to improve how the Google Play Store works.

Recently, we announced an update to the Google Play Payments policy, revising the service fee and making it more explicit when Google Play’s billing system is required. To help deepen the community's understanding of the policy update, we have collated answers to the most common questions we hear from our developers.

What forms of payments are supported after the adoption of Google Play Billing?

Google Play’s billing system supports numerous forms of payment (FOPs) including debit and credit cards, netbanking, UPI (including all supported apps such as Paytm, PhonePe, Mobikwik and others), carrier billing, and gift cards. While we do not currently offer mobile wallets, we are open to integrating wallets and other popular forms of payment subject to prevailing legal and regulatory framework, and continue to work with regulators toward making this happen. Additional forms of payment such as recurring payments as enabled by UPI are on the roadmap for inclusion to the suite of payment options available on Google Play.
