What you can buy with your Google Play balance

What you can do with your Google Play balance 

Limitations

  • Play balance cannot be used to purchase hardware in the Google Store, nor to top up your GPay or other payment method.
  • You can use your balance to buy content that's sold in the same currency as your balance.
    • Example: If you redeem an Australian gift card in AUD, you can't use it in Germany since the purchase in Germany would be in Euros.
  • It's not possible to share or transfer content between accounts on Google Play, even if you own both accounts. If you have multiple accounts on your device, make sure that you sign in to the account that you want to use before you complete your purchase.

Tips:

  • If you’ve bought an app on the wrong account, contact the app developer. They may be able to refund your purchase so that you can buy it again on the account that you want to use.
  • You can share apps and digital content with your family with Google Play Family Library.
