Enrollment is not optional You cannot simply add a link to your website on Google Play. You must enroll your app in the external offers program (external content links) and integrate the external offers APIs. There were enrollment deadlines in early 2026 for apps already linking out, so confirm the current requirement in the Play Console before you rely on the route. What integration involves Declaring your external offers and linking through the sanctioned API rather than a raw hyperlink. Reporting transactions so Google can assess the service fee it is owed on external sales. Meeting the program's user-experience requirements, including any disclosure Google requires before the user leaves. Consumption-only on Android As on iOS, an app that never sells anything and only lets an existing subscriber log in avoids the billing question entirely. But if you want to promote or link to your web offer from inside the app, the external offers program is the sanctioned path, and skipping enrollment is a policy violation that can pull your app. Educational material, not legal or tax advice. App-store rules and the underlying court cases are changing month to month in 2026 — always confirm the current terms in Apple's and Google's own developer documentation before you ship, and get professional advice for your jurisdiction.
