Google Play cryptocurrency exchanges and wallets policy: fixes and checks

This guide is for Google Play apps allowing cryptocurrency purchase, holding, or exchange.

A service can work globally while its permissions don’t. Google requires cryptocurrency purchase, holding, and exchange through certified services in regulated jurisdictions, with compliance in every targeted location.

Check the provider and market

Identify the actual exchange or wallet provider and the developer’s relationship to it. Compare the service’s authorization with store distribution and in-app access. We’d review the current country-specific requirements linked from Google’s policy before submitting documents.

Align access and evidence

Remove availability where the product is prohibited or unsupported by the required authorization. Supply accurate licensing and provider information when Google requests it. A partner’s license needs to cover the actual service and relationship, not just a similar company name.

Test supported and excluded locations and the actual purchase/holding flow in a safe environment. Give Google the documentation and review route. Seek qualified regulatory advice for the product’s obligations rather than treating the store’s acceptance as legal clearance.
