Creating a Google Checkout account

You must have a Google Checkout account associated with your Google Account to purchase items from Android Market.

Do one of the following:

On your computer, go to http://checkout.google.com to create a Google Checkout account.

The first time you use your phone to buy an item from Android Market, you’re prompted to enter your billing information to set up a Google Checkout account.

Note Once you’ve used Google Checkout once to purchase an application from Android Market, the phone remembers your password, so you don’t need to enter it the next time. For this reason, you should secure your phone to prevent others from using it without your permission. See “Protecting Your Phone” in Chapter 10 for details.

Requesting a refund for an application

If you are not satisfied with an application, you can ask for a refund within 24 hours of the purchase. Your credit card is not charged and the application is uninstalled from your phone.

If you change your mind, you can install the application again, but you can’t request a refund a second time.

1.From the Android Market Home, press MENU, and then tap Downloads.

2.Tap the application to uninstall for a refund. The details screen for the application opens.

3.Tap Uninstall & refund. Your application is uninstalled and the charge is cancelled.

4.Choose the reason for removing the application, and then tap OK.
