"Google Expands Real-Money Gaming Support on Play Store"
Google is changing its Play Store policy to allow more real-money gaming apps, initially enforcing the new rules in India, Mexico, and Brazil. The company conducted pilot programs in various parts of the world since 2021 to support more real-money game operators and game types. It plans to expand the availability of real-money gaming apps in other regions in the future, while maintaining age requirements and geo-fencing to comply with local laws. Additionally, Google is evolving its service fee model for real-money gaming apps to sustain the Android and Play ecosystems.
