There was such a question in the light of the fact that citizens of my country can NOT sell apps on the Android Market. Someone already faced with the need to register a foreign account?

Maybe someone registered an account not in the US, but in Russia? How to withdraw money?

In general, please share your experience in this matter. Thank.

    There was such a topic a couple of years ago in Russia, when it was impossible to sell with a Russian account. There was a mass of schemes tied to some American acquaintances, and so on, but all of these schemes openly smell scam. In general, having suffered with such schemes, I spat on everything and went in the direction of free applications with an advertising monetization scheme. The benefit of them now is a lot of Smaato, AdMob and so on.

    In general, advice - move in this direction. Do not believe the tales that as the current opens the opportunity to post paid applications, then immediately you will manna from heaven - all this garbage. You first try on free applications to get a few tens of thousands of downloads, then you can think about paid applications.

    • Thank you, but then the question arises that if I want to then make a "about" version of the application without ads, and the account on which the application is located will already be "spoiled" by the wrong country. Or you can then change the country of the account? I honestly still poorly understand how it is determined. - Romeneros
    • I already explained @Romeneros - first submit an app to the people with> 10 thousand downloads, after which it will be possible to think how to monetize it. And it turns out about how to share the skin of an unkilled bear :) - Barmaley
    • I apologize, but it does not work, because In my case, the monetization model can directly affect the functionality of the program, plus I have already given an example when you can never start to “divide the skin” of a bear, because the account not from the desired country was originally. In addition, there are programs that, in principle, cannot be monetized by advertising. - Romeneros
    • @Romeneros try to put the application on Amazon's app, of course there are fewer downloads, but nothing prevents you from putting a free one on the market and making a link to the paid program in Amazon from the free program - Barmaley
    • Thanks for the advice, but it's still not the same - Romeneros
