Google offers Netflix exclusive 10% deal on Google Play

New Delhi,10-November – 2023, By IBW Team

Google has offered Netflix a 10% discount on its in-app payments on Android, allowing Netflix to retain 90% of the money, according to media reports.

The details surfaced during the ongoing Epic Games vs. Google trial in the US, reports The Verge.

According to documents and testimonies in the courtroom, Google offered to make Netflix a “platform development partner” under a special program, according to a Netflix internal document shown in court, IANS reported.

“Netflix is the only one this is being offered to at this point,” the document read.

“Bring revshare to 10 percent on the condition that Netflix have a full commitment to GPB (Google Play Billing) globally,” according to the deal.

Netflix VP of Business Development Paul Perryman confirmed under oath that Google offered that deal to Netflix in September 2017, the report mentioned.

Netflix didn’t accept the deal, he said and no longer pays Google anything for distribution via Google Play.

Fortnite publisher Epic Games sued Google in 2020 after a fight over in-app purchase fees. Google has defended its 30 percent cut on transactions for apps via its Play Store.
