Paytm accuses Google of double standards in Fantasy games row

Paytm has accused Google of playing double standards when it comes to its policies on fantasy games on the Play Store. Paytm shared a blog post announcing the return of Paytm First Games to the Google Play Store and wrote that while Google does not allow its real money app to be promoted on Google Play, it can be promoted via YouTube by paying Google a hefty fee.

As Mint reported, while Paytm First Games is back on the Play Store, the version you can download is a free app and does not allow real money fantasy gaming.

“To put it simply, the Play Store will ban the Paytm app or the Paytm First Games app if we promote our pro app. But it will freely allow YouTube to promote our free app, for a fee,” the blog states.
