I was referring to applications deployed within the market, and you are right it is probably borderline, my understanding of the T&C is that 1) You cannot ask for money for the application itself 2) You can ask for money for other applications which you can sell through your application
But could we ask for donations? I knew of an iPhone application, iMafia, which sold other applications with Paypal within the application itself... and it would seem strange to me that Google is more restrictive than Apple! Apart from legal restrictions, does anyone know if its possible to implement external payments through operators billing? Bye, G.
