[android-developers] Re: New countries, but not possible to move existing account?
I would also like to know this. But you may actually want to switch to a US account if you can. A few days ago the SwiftKey app switched from UK£0.60 to US$0.99 because like many non-US developers they were getting a lot of payment declined US orders. Then I would have to setup a US company with a US bank account. I would prefer to keep things simple as paid revenue doesn't amount to much in the Android world. But I couldn't get any answers on the Android Market forums or Google Checkout forums and since Google doesn't offer phone or email support (must be the only company that does this to it's customers?) then we are stuck with the UK company for now. If anyone manages to move their apps to a new account or change the country of their existing account then please let me know! :-) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

In the meantime, you can still get your apps published on Slideme (http://slideme.org) or Getjar (http://getjar.com). They are not as big as Google, of course, but they do have the advantage that people already know about them in countries where Google is not established/ present.

I'm not an AdSense user, although from what I just read, AdSense support has
been brought to Czech Republic few years ago (it even has UI in Czech
language).
2010/10/1 Denis Souza denis.so...@gmail.com
I just registered here in Brazil. It links to your AdSense account so
you can receive the payments. I thought it was a pretty clever way to
do it, using the existing AdSense system so they wouldn't have to
implement payment systems for every country. Maybe the restrictions to
Czech Republic and Poland have something to do with the availability
of AdSense in those countries (can anyone from those countries
enlighten us?).
It's lame, but having 20 additional countries selling apps is a pretty
big deal (from the handful that there was before) and I'm sure they'll
continue expanding, especially with Android's increased growth in
market share.

Re: [android-developers] Re: New countries !!!!
Great news!
But for some reason citizens of couple of countries will have to create
Google AdSense account to make payments available.
Somebody can explain why?

Hey its definitely a step in the right direction.
And should hold out hope that it will be rolled out further.
Its certainly opened up the type of apps that I will consider
developing now that I can sell into the market.

This still sucks as there's 18 new sellers vs 20 buyers, which
means that developers from 2 countries (namely South Korea and
Poland) are still left behind and can't sell anyting to users in
their own countries. That's lame.

Yeah.. I got it alsobut I really hope they are doing something to reduce the impact of Spam Apps at the same time. I really do hope that that issue gets resolved soon! But not sure if it will during this type of update... My very simple idea to reduce the impact Spam Apps have on the market would be to only allow an app to show up in the Just In category 3 times a year, and never less than 2 months apart. That should be enough for legit developers, and Spam Apps would very quickly stop dominating the Just In list. I don't think 3 times a year is a solution and I would definitely not like it to be like that... I believe that the current available solutionon the Market works perfect BUT... The issue is mostly that spammers put a trillion of the same applications on the Market... So that takes away from us the beauty of the Just In feature... :( -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

I'm betting I could program that logic and implement it on my site in slightly less than an hour.

Ok... we're up to 2 hours programming now :). Then... for any developer that has more than 10 apps they could reduce the number of Just In per app to 2 a year.
