Set up your app's prices (2024)

You can set your app as free or paid, update your app’s pricing universally or per country, and use pricing templates to simplify pricing for your apps in Play Console.

Note: After you publish an app or update, including price changes, adding SKUs, or making changes to your app’s distribution settings, it can take a few hours for your changes to be shown on Google Play.

Sub-dollar pricing expansion in 20 markets

In February 2021, we reduced the minimum price limit for products in 20 more markets across Latin America, EMEA, and APAC. You can now set lower price rates in these markets, allowing you to reach new potential buyers by adjusting your pricing to better reflect local purchasing power and demand.

Learn more about Sub-dollar pricing expansion in 20 markets inthe Android Developers Blog.

Make your app free or paid

  1. Open Play Console and go to the App pricing page (Products > App pricing).
  2. In the "Pricing"section, next to "Your app is,"click Make your app free or Make your app paid.

Note: Users in most countries can download paid apps and make in-app purchases. To verify purchase availability, review our list of price ranges and currencies allowed by country.

Changes to your app's Free or Paid selection

  • You can change your app from paid to free.
  • Once your app has been offered for free, the app can't be changed to paid. If you want to charge for the app, you need to create a new app with a new package name and set a price.

Enter a price

When you offer paid apps, in-app products, and subscriptions on Google Play, a service fee applies.

Note: If you aren't distributing your app in a country that you enter a price for, users won’t have access to it.

Paid apps

To set up pricing for a paid app:

  2. Review our list of currencies and price ranges allowed by country.
  3. On the App pricing page in Play Console, enter a price.
    • We use the price you enter as the base for calculating market-specific prices. We'll convert your price to the local currency, add tax in select countries, and apply locally relevant pricing patterns and valid exchange rates for the date on which you set the price for your app. You can manually refresh the price to ensure that the local price reflects the latest exchange rate.
    • The price you enter will be used in all countries without local currency support.When a local currency isn’t supported, a price in USD or EUR is generated. Prices generated in USD or EUR are based on the price that you enter.
    • The currency used in each country is set and can’t be changed.
