With some mobile devices and service plans, you can charge purchases to your operator bill.
Participating operators in Vietnam:
- MobiFone
- Viettel
- Vinaphone
When you buy something, you'll see the charge on your operator account after 15 minutes.
Note: You may see an SMS (text message) starting with 'DCB' or 'DCB_Association' on your phone when you sign up for mobile phone billing. The message is automatically generated and sent to complete enrolment in mobile phone billing for your Google Play account.
If you don't see an operator billing option, keep in mind that:
- Mobile phone billing is only available using the Google Play Store app. It isn't available on the Google Play website on a computer or mobile browser.
- Your account with your operator must be in good standing.
- If you use a device with dual SIM cards, make sure that you put the right SIM card in slot 1 and leave slot 2 empty.
- Mobile phone billing is not available on rooted devices.
- Some mobile phone operators can't be used to pay for subscriptions.
Check with your operator to make sure that:
- You haven't exceeded your operator's monthly spending limit.
- Your device and service plan allow premium content purchases.
- Your device can use mobile phone billing.
Cancelled purchases
Purchases that aren't successfully authorised with your operator are immediately cancelled. For help with unsuccessful mobile phone billing purchases, contact your mobile service provider.
