The number of developers that make more than $1 million each year - and will end up still being charged the full 30 percent - is proportionally tiny. The only exception is subscriptions: in 2018, Google (in another similar move to Apple) announced that it would reduce its cut down to 15 percent for subscription products after users had been subscribed for a full year. The 30 percent fee has been constant for the lifespan of Google’s storefront. Google has charged a 30 percent cut for any purchases through the Google Play Store since it first launched as the “ Android Market” - although originally, the company claimed that “Google does not take a percentage,” with the 30 percent cut going toward “carriers and billing settlement fees.” In its more modern incarnation as the Play Store, Google now puts that 30 percent cut toward its “distribution partner and operating fees.” A Google spokesperson says the company felt that applying the reduced fees equally to all companies was a fair approach in line with Google’s goals of helping developers of all sizes.

Any money you make after that will then be subject to the usual 30 percent cut. That means whether you’re a student making your first app or a multibillion-dollar company, the first $1 million you make on the Play Store each year will only get charged a 15 percent service fee by Google. Google’s program is a flat cut to the first $1 million developers make each year. Apple will reduce App Store cut to 15 percent for most developers starting January 1st
