How to create a Google Developer Account

To register your app on the Play Store, you’ll need to create a Google developer account first.

★What is a Google developer account?

-This is a developer account that you need to create to release your app on the Play Store. You can create a Google Developer account with a registration fee.

-Account registration fee: $25 (one-time payment, approximately 30,000 in Korean won)

*Google Play Developer Console Site https://play.google.com/apps/publish/

*Just because you have a regular Gmail account doesn’t mean that it’s a Google developer account!
