Oh, I know from following `koush` (RomManager, DeskSMS) on Twitter that Google's payment processing is a bit miserable. He's posted more than one screenshot of mass verification failures.
I'm looking at the Dev Agreement and I don't see the parallel verbiage to Apple's "Apps utilizing a system other than the In App Purchase API (IAP) to purchase content, functionality, or services in an app will be rejected". I can think of a fairly significant list of applications that have unlocks via PayPal or other methods other than Google's in app payment that ties into the Market.
edit: It appears to be in Section 3.3 of the Android Market Developer Distribution Agreement: "All fees received by Developers for Products distributed via the Market must be processed by the Market's Payment Processor." I wonder if they're simply not enforcing it... Lame Google...
- SomeCallMeTim 15y agoActually, the clause you quote (and the restriction I mention) only applies to free apps. They certainly DON'T enforce the policy very often. Of course they'd need an army to enforce ALL of their policies. I doubt there are many apps on the market that adhere religiously to all the policies, and most have lots of obvious violations.
