You'll notice after some brief exploration in your Google Checkout space that you keep 70% of revenue earned from applications sold through the Android market. This means for a $0.99 application, you will retain $0.69 for each sale. If you release your application for $1.99, you will retain $1.39 per and so on and so forth. For whatever reason, the fees thing at the right of the screen in your Google Checkout home does not display the correct information for Android developers, and it is different. If you read the agreement before you agreed, you would have seen this.
You do have to pay taxes, but that varies depending on your state of residence. Also, generally speaking, you want to avoid distributing from outside of America, as it accomplishes little except to complicate your sales life. -K -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
