Google Play adds Venmo as a payment option

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Google Play has integrated Venmo as a payment option for users in the US. This allows customers to purchase Android apps, subscriptions, and in-app content using their Venmo balance or linked accounts. The integration expands payment choices on Google's services, including YouTube, and follows Google's recent move to allow alternative billing systems on its Play store as part of a settlement with Epic Games.
