I want to earn some money with android applications, but I'm facing a big problem. Google does not support my country on Google Play ( for merchants ). So I can't use their payment system for selling apps or in-app goods. Also they have a policy that say, we developers cannot use third- party payment system (like PayPal) in application published on Google Play.
But I want to know if this is "legal" for doing this.
- I publish my DEMO application on google play
- Via in app I inform app users that there is a FULL application on my website
- User navigates to my website and pays for full app (via paypal or other payment system )

Quote from Google Play Policy:
Paid and Free Applications App purchases: Developers charging for applications and downloads from Google Play must do so by using Google Play's payment system. In-app purchases: Developers offering virtual goods or currencies within a game downloaded from Google Play must use Google Play's in-app billing service as the method of payment. Developers offering additional content, services or functionality within another category of app downloaded from Google Play must use Google Play's in-app billing service as the method of payment, except: where payment is primarily for physical goods or services (e.g. buying movie tickets, or buying a publication where the price also includes a hard copy subscription); or where payment is for digital content or goods that may be consumed outside of the application itself (e.g. buying songs that can be played on other music players). Developers must not mislead users about the applications they are selling nor about any in-app services, goods, content or functionality they are selling.
Please advise me. Thank you!
