For several weeks now, Android developers have been reporting a strange bug that leaves many of them not being paid for their apps. The problem lies in the fact that lists of paid orders from the Market don’t match those of orders that were just charged. This bug causes many developers not to be paid for their apps at all, because not all orders are marked “complete” in the same way.
Google has promised a fix, but hasn’t been able to give an estimate or even a clue as to what is causing the issue. We’re confident that they will make sure that these developers are paid for their apps – after all, it could be catastrophic to Google if they were just to ignore this problem and their developers.
