Google Play binary options policy: fixes and checks

By The Draftbit team · Updated

This guide is for Google Play apps allowing users to trade binary options.

Google Play prohibits apps that let people trade binary options. If that’s the feature named in the notice, changing the risk warning or selecting an adult audience won’t address it.

Check the actual trading route

Inspect embedded trading screens, external handoffs, account links, and third-party providers. We’d ask the responsible financial specialist to identify the product accurately rather than assume every instrument described as an “option” is identical.

Remove the prohibited capability

If the app offers binary-options trading, remove that capability from the Play-distributed product. Review any remaining financial functionality against the broader Financial Services policy and applicable legal requirements.

Test that the removed route isn’t still available through deep links, remote configuration, or provider menus. Give Google the corrected feature map and review steps. If Google misclassified the product, provide factual documentation of what is offered through the appeal route.
