I don't think you can.. It would defeat the purpose of trying out Wallet.
lol yeah i suppose so
Nope
Yeah unfortulently you can not use it in the store. Have talked to support about this and they said it is a no go, like stated above they want you to use the NFC to use the Prepaid

Hi is there any way to get a free developer's account for the Android Market? Or will someone be willing to let me use theirs or buy one for me in exchange for a favour? I am only 16 and my family have no credit cards, and I haven't seen an option for bank accounts on our bank. I have also tried to contact Google but they completely ignored my emails.
PS I'm only going to host free apps.
Thank you and as for favours, if anyone needs any Android hacks or general help for Android, PSP or PC I'll help them.
Cheers
Hey, I understand your trouble, but you don't need an android dev account to use/ create apps, just to publish them in the market. You can just download and install them straight to your phone.
There is no way I know of to get a free account.

Hey mate I cannot pay them the $25 dollars because I do not have a credit card and they do not accept the bank that I use, if I could pay in cash or a gift card I would do that in an instant.
I also want to publish apps to the Android Market for the world to see my work.
How about using friends credit card and pay him by cash

Maybe too obvious an answer but maybe open bank account with a different bank?

Another option is to use alternative markets where you don't have to pay in order to have a developer account.
I don't know in which it's necessary to pay or not, but some of them are:
apktor, aptoide, getjar, handango, onlyAndroid, slideMe, appoke...

Or you could make a thread in themes and apps, and host the file there.

Hello everyone.
For those who can't find the app on the Google Play Store, here's the link.
If you can't download it from here, leave me a message. I shall upload it somewhere that is convenient to you. Thanks.
I didn't realize it was hard to find.

It isn't. Enter Nook in the Play Store search and it is the first listed.
This link is supposed to be for those like myself who haven't been able to find the app in the google play store just because of country restrictions.

Hmmmm...the country restrictions are there for some reason?
I've no idea. I reckon the developers are charged more for the availability of their app in more countries. Maybe B&N think that they've got not much customers from Asia, maybe, and thy just cut those costs.

Or maybe becauseN&N is not licensed to sell products in other countries, or wants to restrict the sales for other business reasons. Anyway, working "around" this is improper, in my humble opinion.

Yeah you are absolutely correct.
So I am tired of waiting for att to get done with their stupid google wallet rip off, assuming it will even support the GS3 at this point.
Is there any roms with almost-native google wallet support? Like install it off the play store and use it without that much tinkering? Since the sprint version of the S3 has wallet support I have high hopes that someone figured out how to do it. XD
Hello, I only published one app and was hoping it would at least get me my 25$ back.
I'm from Romania and I don't find 25$ to be a cheap price. The other problem with me being Romanian is that I can't open a merchant account, so I can only post free apps. My option was to use AdMob to get a little income. It wasn't much, having only gathered 4.40$ in 3 months. On top of that, my admob was suspended and I don't know why, I read the rules and as far as I know I didn't do anything wrong. I suspect someone purposely made fake clicks in my app just to mess with me.
I now decided to try Amazon App store, they let me publish paid apps even from my country. I know there were some people who asked for a paid version with no ads. I don't know how to deal with this situation now, I have the google play app which is free but it has a Donate popup. And then there's the same app (not yet approved) but without the donate links on the amazon app store.
Have you ever tried Amazon app store? Do people really buy apps there?
What do you suggest I do?

I had bad experience with Amazon store, they take long time to approve apps.
Imo there is no good enough alternative for Google Play at the moment
Same here, rather bad luck with Amazon to date...

I have tried amazon app store and publish it for free, i see your app is live wallpaper and as i know Kindle users do not like live wallpapers.
i suggest you try slideMe appstore.
Buddy... Wait till google add romania to the merchant list... ..

Both amazon and getjar weren't really useful for me. I did get more traffic from the Opera store. Since my game focuses on in app purchases to make $ it's hard to get traction on any other store since currently I use IAB.
What kind of app did you have? Games I think are most successful with ads, but in the end it depends from app to app, I guess.
You can try Samsung App here: http://seller.samsungapps.com/
I have bad experience with Amazon. Low downloads and last weeks Admob ecpm is extremely low (about 0.05). Has anybody tried to integrate Amazon's banner ads?
Amazon app store is an avenue that developers are still figuring out how to utilize optimally for their purpose.
I agree with most of what has been said here... I don't get even 1% of the amount of downloads from Amazon as I do from Play. In my opinion it is just not Amazon's focus as Play is "THE" store front for apps. I think like most business ventures, it has a lot to do with timing. What kind of niche are your getting into. If super saturated, you may need to create a category within a category in order to reach new users.
You can win Kindle Fire HD now for integrating their api.

Agreeing with previous posters that Google Play doesn't have a good enough alternative yet...
Have tried SlideMe and Amazon and neither have got close to the Play Store in my case.

True, but ARPU on Amazon is far better than on GPlay. Of course GPlay is x10 (at least) when it comes to its reach but if you have a good app, use Amazon's APIs (ads, inapps, etc.) and talk to them, you might get featured. My experience is they actually respond to emails
Amazon Appstore will not make you uber-rich but it's a valid option, much better than GetJar imho.
Hi
If I wanted to release an app on the Play Store for free but wanted the option that anyone can pay if they wanted to, how would I go about doing it? I dont want to have two apps, just one paid and one free.
Is it possible to have something similar to in app purchase but thats a way of thanking the dev? And does Google take a percentage from it? Or maybe PayPal link in the app?
Or any other methods?
You can use in-app billing to do what you need.
Google take 30% of your sales and as far as I am aware you are not allowed to link to paypal.
You can find a tutorial for in- app billing here or you can look through the official documentation here.
Good luck.

Lol. Why would anyone pay for something that is available for free? No matter how better the application is, if it is available for free than i am never going to pay for it no matter what. And when it comes to your question's answer no you can't do that, Google Play isn't offering any such option. Yes Google takes 30% of your sales and so does iTunes.

Fact is, some people will pay for something that is free.
Most of the ROM's, apps etc on xda are free. They are done by devs that enjoy what they do and enjoy helping others. People donate to them as a way of saying thank you.
Also, in the past I've put apps on Google Play that are completely free, with a donate version that is exactly the same. People have used the free version, then bought the donate version because they liked it. It's all down to the individual.
