Google Play and Apple App Store have been criticized for the past few years because of their restrictions when it comes to application developers. Because these two companies are somehow strict, many critics claim they monopolize app payment options and application distributions in their platforms.
One of the countries that don’t agree with Google’s app payment rules and regulations is South Korea. The Asian nation recently passed a law that requires Play Store to allow alternative IAP (In-App Purchase) options.
Now, Google Play has finally agreed to the request of South Korea, which would definitely benefit developers since they can integrate their own IAP alongside the search engine giant’s Play billing system.
