Google allows test of real-money gambling apps in India, but without its billing systems
It is unclear if Google has barred use of its payments systems because it doesn't want any involvement in gambling, or to ensure apps use only virtual currency that can't cause real-world losses.
If the former scenario is Google's motivator, denying developers access to its payments systems is a remarkable position. Google has mostly fought to ensure developers can't escape its financial net. Regulators around the world have come to regard Google's requirement to use those systems as a monopoly.
The company has also framed the Indian pilot as an exploration of"possible updates" to its policies. Perhaps the company will not like what it learns, and pull the plug. But for a year from September 28, Google Play India will host such apps – and Google risks being held accountable if they're found to be harmful. ®
