Hi Josh, I'm pleased to share that Bandcamp's nomination for PMEP has been approved under our Audio Distribution Accelerator Program (ADAP). This means that Bandcamp is eligible for a service fee of 10% (not 15% as I previously mentioned) on all applicable earnings, in exchange for integration with Google Play Billing & developing features across key surfaces such as WearOS, Auto, TV.

Should you go forward with the integration & our ADAP program, we can bring a suite of valuable tools and insights to your team to help you meet and exceed your business goals across Android. These value-adds include: Growth Consulting (data-oriented business reviews benchmarked against an anonymized peer set); Partner Management (dedicated point of contact to navigate Google's ecosystem); Reactive Support for app-related issues; and Nomination for Early Access Programs to unlock priority access to new Play features.

For context, the standard fee structure is 15% on the first $1M/year & 30% thereafter on all in-app purchases for digital content (physical goods are exempt). The deadline to integrate with Play Billing, or go consumption-only on Android, was 3/31/2022.

Earlier, Bandcamp's COO Josh Kim had noted: 'We were hoping that the prior carveout for digital music downloads would continue, and I'll admit we're disappointed that's not the case, but appreciate that you're continuing to think creatively/dynamically about this.'
