RE: Unable to test in-app purchase through Google Play Store due to in-app billing: Error: Your payment could not be processed at this time.
I have completed an application that uses billing in the application to allow the user to purchase some virtual products in the application. I followed all the steps described in the section "Testing in-app purchases using your own product identifiers":
http://developer.android.com/google/play/billing/billing_testing.html#billing-testing-real
These are the steps I took for testing:
- The draft application was uploaded to the Developer Console.
- Added items to the application product list.
- Set up a test Google account
- Google test account added to developer console
- Set up Google Wallet to verify your Google account, a payment method has been added under my name.
- Factory reset test device
- Rebooted device and with a new account with verification
- Uploaded draft apk
When I try to purchase an item in the app, Google Wallet replies:
βError: Your payment could not be processed at this time. You may receive an email asking you to verify your account.β
I check my gmail inbox and for each unsuccessful purchase I have two letters - the first is the receipt of the order, and the second is the receipt of the cancellation of the order.
I tried 24 hours 48 hours and got the same answer.
Any ideas on how to solve this problem. How else should I check that billing in the application will work for my users, if I can not even go through the process itself.
