8.5 Purchasing an application
If an application has a price associated with it, you have to buy it before you can download it. You
can try it out for 24 hours. Your credit card will be charged unless you ask for a refund within 24 hours of
purchase.
You pay for an application only once. You can uninstall it and download it again later without having
to pay for it again. In addition, if you have multiple Android phones that use the same Google
Account, you can download the purchased application to all of them at no additional cost.

service.

Checkout, see https://checkout.google.com.
