Google Play Account Anti-Ban Guide: How to ensure account security ?

Have you ever had this experience: your hard-earned Google developer account was blocked just because of a mistake, and all your efforts and hard work went down the drain in an instant? Countless developers have encountered this nightmare, with projects interrupted, income lost, and everything coming to a standstill. So how can we ensure the security of our Google developer account and avoid this tragic fate of being blocked? Next, let's discuss several ways to prevent blocking~

I. Why are Google developer accounts easily banned?

In addition to violating Google's policies, such as publishing apps that contain malware, infringe copyright, or do not comply with Google's advertising and content policies, there are also the following important reasons:

1. Abnormal login behavior

Google is very sensitive to account login behavior. If developers frequently log in to the same account in different locations or devices, or if multiple developer accounts use the same network, it may be considered abnormal behavior, triggering Google's security mechanism and causing the account to be banned.

2. Payment issues

Frequent changes in payment methods, use of invalid payment information or false payment information, especially for advertising or in-app purchases, may cause Google to suspect the account and lead to a ban. In addition, long-term non-payment of related fees or mismatched payment information may also lead to account freezing.

3. Fake Reviews and Ratings

If you encourage users to make false reviews or give five-star ratings, this can easily be seen as manipulating user feedback, violating Google's community policy and ultimately resulting in your account being penalized.

4. Posting illegal advertisements

Posting ads that do not comply with Google's advertising policies, such as misleading ads, fraudulent ads, or ads that infringe on the rights of others, will result in the suspension or ban of the advertising account or developer account.

5. Registration information issues

Reusing registration information such as email, phone number, payment card, etc. will result in one account being blocked and all other accounts that have used the same information being blocked. Or using false information will also result in an account being blocked once it is discovered.

II. How to reduce the risk of being banned?

1. Ensure that the application is compliant and complies with Google policies

Make sure your app does not contain malware, infringe copyright content, or violate privacy policies.

It can be prevented from the following aspects:

• Privacy Policy: The app needs to clearly inform users of its privacy policy and comply with relevant laws and regulations.

• Security check: The application needs to be tested for security to avoid malicious code or vulnerabilities that are easy to be attacked.

• Advertising Policies: Ensure your ads comply with Google’s advertising policies and avoid misleading users or deceptive practices.

2. Review account and app activity regularly

Regularly review your account and app activities to check for suspicious behavior. For example, regularly check login history, access logs, and payment records. This can help you identify potential security risks in a timely manner and take appropriate measures.

3. Do not switch IP frequently and ensure IP isolation

Google developer accounts are very sensitive to frequent changes in login locations. If you frequently log in from different countries or regions, Google may think that your account has abnormal operations. Therefore, it is necessary to configure a separate IP for each developer account. It is recommended to use IPFoxy's residential IP, which can provide your account with a stable and undetectable independent IP address, reducing the possibility of your account being banned due to IP issues.

4. Ensure the authenticity and accuracy of registration information

•When registering: You need to provide your real developer name, company name, address, phone number and email address. Also ensure that the payment information is authentic and valid.

•If you need to purchase an account: First, choosing an account merchant with a good reputation and credibility is the key to ensuring the safety of the purchase. Then, carefully check the account history to ensure that it has no record of violations and penalties. In addition, ensure that the account registration information is complete and true, and also ensure that the account has no potential risks.
