App analytics firm Distimo has reported today on some of the intricacies of the Apple App Store compared to the Google Play Store.
Over the course of the year, the Google Play Store has seen its revenue grow 51 percent in the 20 countries analyzed; Australia, Canada, China, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Israel, Italy, Japan, Korea, the Netherlands, Norway, Russia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, the UK and the US.
In total revenue, the App Store saw $15 million in average daily revenue last month, compared to just $3.5 million for the Google Store.
69 percent of the revenues came from in-app purchases, which has quickly moved to the most popular form of casual gaming releases instead of the standard upfront fee.
