Subscribe to services or content

When you subscribe:

• The subscription is for an indefinite term, and you’ll be charged at the start of each billing period, according to your subscription terms, for example, weekly, annually, or another period.
• If you accept a trial offer, you'll get an email when your trial is about to end.
  • At the end of your trial period, the first billing period begins and you automatically get charged the amount in your subscriptions terms.
  • To avoid charges, cancel the subscription before the trial period expires.
• You might find a payment authorization on your payment method up to 24 hours before the next billing period starts but you’re only charged on the billing period renewal date. To remove the payment authorization, cancel the subscription before your next billing cycle begins.
• For certain jurisdictions, you have these options:
  • Cancel your subscription with immediate effect and lose access.
  • Cancel the subscription at the end of the current billing cycle. Learn how to cancel your subscription.
• You can also add a second payment method to your Google Play account to help prevent interruptions to your subscription service in case your primary payment method expires or fails. Learn how to add a backup payment method.
• If your payment is unsuccessful, you may have a grace period to update your payment method. During the grace period, you may still be able to use your subscription. When the grace period ends, or if there's no grace period, your account may be placed on hold for up to 60 days during which you can’t use the subscription. During any grace period and account hold period, Play will periodically retry the payment. If the payment issue isn't resolved before any grace period and account hold period ends, the subscription is automatically canceled.
• Google may share subscription data that doesn’t personally identify you with developers to help them offer subscriptions.

Important: From July 15th onwards, PayTM eWallet will no longer be available as an accepted form of payment on Google Play.

Users are advised to add an alternative form of payments in their play account. Users are also advised to update their existing subscriptions with the alternative payment method to avoid interruptions. Learn how to manage your payment methods and the list of accepted forms of payment on Google Play in India.
