Google Play
A wider country list than Apple’s and a faster review. Gambling apps go through an application per licensed country; crypto publishes almost everywhere, but ads inside Play follow Google Ads rules.
What buying here runs through
Google Play
Publication by country list with licence verification. Requirements differ from Apple, so the same product is often available in different geographies across the two stores.
Source pageWhat moderation cuts
Application for the wrong country
The gambling form is filed per country; one country’s licence does not open the neighbour, and serving there suspends the listing.
Installs without people
Incentivised and bot installs from cheap networks zero out store search rankings and can get the app removed for rating manipulation.
Income promise on the listing
“Earn money” in the title or screenshots of a crypto app means rejection under the financial-services policy and a flag on the developer.
For which products and on what terms
By application per licensed country: Tier-1, Europe, Brazil, Mexico, India and the Philippines are open; MENA, Indonesia and Malaysia are not.
Exchanges, wallets and Web3 apps publish with risk disclosure and no income promises; on-device mining is banned.
A placement that passes
An application per country with a copy of the licence, 18+ rating, licence in the description, interface screenshots without win amounts, and traffic from networks that pass the deposit event, not from incentivised installs.
