Plus, the free trials in India s Google Play Store will be suspended.
Google has told developers to begin ending auto-renewing SKUs.
Google is hitting pause on the free trials that you see for hundreds of apps on the Play Store in India. That is because Google is in the process of complying with the new regulations from the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). RBI, earlier this year, issued new guidelines that make authentication necessary for recurring payments, which are often required when trials are over for automatic charging. Google is also suspending auto-renewals of subscriptions for Play Store apps because of the RBI regulation in India.
