Summary
Android developers have been given a chance to receive more profits from their applications with the in-app billing program, as well as online stores that can be accessed within the application itself.
The in-app billing program is perfect for selling virtual goods within the application, and it works well if the developer can create a subscription for their goods. It isn’t for every type of application, but it works very well for games.
Setting up an application for in-app billing requires you to head to the Android Developers site, where a sample can be downloaded and tested out before it can be configured. The Android Market handles the security and payments, even though the setup is somewhat complex.
