Android:当付费 Google Play 在我的国家/地区不可用时如何分发付费应用程序 [英] Android: how to distribute paid application when paid Google Play is not available in my country

问题描述

我想出售我的 Android 应用程序，但我住在波兰和我的国家* Android Market 仅支持免费应用程序(我们不能出售，也不能购买).

I'd like to sell my Android application, but I live in Poland and in my country* Android Market supports only free apps (we cannot sell and we cannot buy too).

在这种情况下销售应用程序的最佳方式是什么?我可以接受 PayPal 汇款，但我不知道如何分发 APK 包而不使其遭受盗版.有人尝试过并且成功了吗?

What is the best way to sell application in such situation? I can accept PayPal money transfers, but I don't know how to distribute APK package without exposing it to getting pirated. Did someone tried it already and succeeded?

推荐答案

有几个选项可供您使用.

There are a few options available to you.

如果您想在实际 Android 电子市场上发布您的应用，您可以尝试在美国或其他支持付费应用的国家/地区寻找业务合作伙伴，并让您的合作伙伴为您列出应用.我知道一些开发人员已经做到了这一点而没有问题.基本上，他们有信任的朋友会创建一个 Android 市场开发者帐户，而这些朋友会列出应用程序.如果您在某个支持付费应用的国家/地区没有可信赖的朋友，这可能是一个不太受欢迎的选择.

If you want to put your app up on the Actual Android Market you can try to find a business partner in the US or another country that supports paid apps and have your partner list the application for you. I know of a few developers that have done this without issues. Basically they had trusted friends that would create an Android market developer account ant these friends would list the application. This can be a somewhat undesirable option if you do not have a trusted friend in one of the countries where paid apps are supported.

另一种选择是在 3rd 方市场上列出您的付费应用程序，例如 SlideME 或 AndAppStore.AndAppStore 的创始人 Al Sutton 是 Android 开发者社区的积极参与者，经常在 android Google 上发帖 groups 并保持他的 Twitter 提要与 Android 新闻同步.

Another option would be to list your paid application on a 3rd party market such as SlideME or AndAppStore. The founder of AndAppStore Al Sutton is a very active participant in the Android developers community regularly posting on the android Google groups and keeping his twitter feed updated with Android news.

还要小心从您在 Android 市场上的免费程序链接到第 3 方应用商店.如果您想通过免费应用出售您的付费应用，请注意 Android Market 开发者分发协议

Also be wary of linking to a 3rd party app store from your free program on the Android Market. If you want to sell your paid app from your free app be aware of clause 3.3 of the Android Market Developer Distribution Agreement

3.3 您也可以选择免费分发产品.如果产品是免费的，则不会向您收取交易费.对于最初允许这些用户免费下载的产品副本，您以后不得向用户收取费用.这并非旨在阻止通过追加销售"选项分发产品的免费试用版以获得产品的完整版本:鼓励对产品进行此类免费试用.但是，如果您想在免费试用期结束后收取费用，您必须通过市场上的支付处理器收取完整版产品的所有费用.在本协议中，免费"是指使用产品不收取任何费用或费用.开发者通过 Market 分发的产品收到的所有费用必须由 Market 的支付处理器处理.

3.3 You may also choose to distribute Products for free. If the Product is free, you will not be charged a Transaction Fee. You may not collect future charges from users for copies of the Products that those users were initially allowed to download for free. This is not intended to prevent distribution of free trial versions of the Product with an "upsell" option to obtain the full version of the Product: Such free trials for Products are encouraged. However, if you want to collect fees after the free trial expires, you must collect all fees for the full version of the Product through the Payment Processor on the Market. In this Agreement, "free" means there are no charges or fees of any kind for use of the Product. All fees received by Developers for Products distributed via the Market must be processed by the Market’s Payment Processor.

这基本上是说免费应用是可以的，但如果你想销售这些应用的完整版，你只能通过 Android 市场来销售.当 Android Market 首次打开付费应用程序时不受支持，一些开发人员指示他们的用户直接访问 3rd 方应用程序商店或他们自己的支付门户，并遇到了谷歌的问题.我相信您可以通过鼓励用户访问您的网站然后在您的网站上提供付费版本信息来解决此问题.

Which basically says free apps are OK, but if you want to sell a full version of these apps you can only do it through the Android Market. When the Android Market first opened paid apps were not supported and some developers directed their suers to go directly to a 3rd party app store or their own payment portal and ran into issues with Google. I do believe you could get around this by encouraging users to go to your website and then have the paid version information available on your website.

祝你好运.
