Google Play Points rewards programme comes to India: Check details

Google has announced that its global rewards programme will now be available in India. Called Google Play Points, the programme will reward users with points for making in-app purchases using Play Store billing. These purchases can be apps, games, movies and even eBooks.
The rewards programme will also have four levels – Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum – that will provide members with different perks and prizes depending on the Tier they are in, which again will be determined how many points they have collected. Note that Play Points will only be applicable to in-app purchases made via the Google Play Store.
Collected Play Points can then be redeemed for Google Play Credit and users can choose which apps to spend them on. “We have also partnered with developers of popular apps and games across the world to help users redeem their points for special in-app items,” Google said in a blog post.

In India, the Play Points rewards programme will partner with games from global studios like Miniclip’s 8 Ball Pool as well as those local studios like Gametion’s Ludo King. Other popular apps like Truecaller and Wysa will also be a part of this.
