    Google vs CCI: Android app developers offered third-party billing in India

    Google will allow app developers to offer an alternate billing system for in-app purchases within India starting April 26, 2023, according to the latest update on the company’s support page.
    This move complies with recent antitrust directives issued by the Competition Commission of India (CCI).
    As part of this new policy, app developers will be allowed to offer an additional billing system to users in addition to Google Play when purchasing in-app digital content.
    "Google Play’s service fee has never been simply a fee for payment processing.
    The move is significant for both developers and consumers in India, as it provides more options for payment and potentially lower costs for users.
    The CCI has been investigating Google's payment system and has been calling for increased competition and reduced costs for developers.
