Creating a Google Play Account

We just jump right into the water continuing from <a href="/adobe-air/building-a-mobile-app-from-scratch.html" data-mce-href="/adobe-air/building-a-mobile-app-from-scratch.html">course 3</a> where we built out first mobile android application. In this video we jump right into the landing page of the <a href="http://smarturl.it/gplay" data-mce-href="http://smarturl.it/gplay" rel="nofollow">Google play for developers</a>.There is a good chance that you already have a Google account but we strongly recommend that if you have a company don't use your private email and instead of that use your cooperate account when starting up your Google play account. Not a bad idea when your selling something as a company to make it really clear that its not a personal engagement but actually a cooperate one (legal legal legal).<p>We picked the Google play store as our first example as its the cheapest while IOS and Amazon are a lot higher currently then the one time fee Google requests.</p><p>Legal stuff are important, not fun to read but really important. Validate you go through that before you build out your account. If you are planning on selling things you will need a merchant account as well but in our case as this application will be free we will skip that step.</p>
