Scope: This article provides platform and product guidance, not a guarantee of approval or an official Google decision.

Classify the product

A lead-generation app, lender, credit facilitator, investment product and budgeting tool can trigger different requirements. Start with the actual financial functionality.

Check market-specific obligations

Some countries have specific documentation or licensing expectations. Do not assume a policy-ready setup for one market applies everywhere.

Minimize sensitive permissions

Contacts, photos, location and other personal data can be especially sensitive in lending contexts. Keep access tied to a clear user-facing need.

Align declarations

Financial Features, Data Safety, privacy policy, store listing and in-app terms should describe the same product.

Keep evidence ready

Where licensing or authorization is required, use genuine current documents and make the public business identity easy to verify.

Official sources

Policies and platform requirements can change. Check the linked official documentation for the latest wording before acting on a time-sensitive case.

Need case-specific help?

If your situation includes a specific warning, rejection or account state, send the exact notice rather than applying generic steps blindly.
