  • The Paytm app is back on the Play Store

In a stunning turn of events, Google has removed the Paytm app from the Play Store for allegedly violating its anti-gambling policies in India. The US tech giant also pulled Paytm’s fantasy sports app called ‘First Games’ for promoting gambling in violation of Play Store policies.

Dear Paytm’ers,

Paytm Android app is temporarily unavailable on Google’s Play Store for new downloads or updates. It will be back very soon.

Update 1 (18/09/2020 7:49 pm)

The Google Play Store has restored the Paytm app after accidentally removing its listing. The update was given by the official Twitter account for Paytm.

Update: And we’re back! 🥳
