What is the cost of entry/membership in the Androi

问题:

I don't recall this information being immediately accessible.

I do recall it being a one off fee of £25.

Last month I read

In Google's Android application market, no pre-approval is required, though registration is needed for distribution. Developers need to register as developers (cost $25/year) with a Google account and sell their products through a published site. NonDfree applications can be sold after configuring the bank information.

while bada was free. I suspect I was reading old information, bada cost £1 for seller registration last time I checked. But I don't think Android ever cost £25/year and this was just Samsung pushing their own alternative OS.

App publisher registration on Google Play (formerly Android Market) has always been a $25, one time fee- Whatever literature you were reading was incorrect.

From the Developer Registration support page:

You must register to be able to distribute your products through Google Play. There is a one time $25 registration fee. We charge this fee to encourage higher quality products on Google Play (e.g. less spammy products).
