Introducing Google Play Pass: What Exactly Is It and How Much Does It Cost?

If you’re an Android user in Malaysia, there’s exciting news for you – Google Play Pass is now available. This monthly subscription service brings a whole new level of convenience and enjoyment to your device. 

Think of it as your exclusive pass to a world of ad-free and premium apps and games, all within your reach. Similar to Apple Arcade, the only difference is that the applications in Apple Arcade are not available for normal users – Play Pass includes apps that are not restricted to subscribers only, but are also accessible to non-subscribers with ads.

 

What’s the benefits?

With Google Play Pass, you get a treasure trove of benefits. Access to a plethora of paid apps and games without the hassle of ads is just the beginning. The cherry on top is that you can share this subscription with up to five other family members, just like the convenience offered by YouTube Premium Family. This service extends beyond gaming, offering audio, productivity, and video-related apps as well.

A huge library of premium games and applications

Say you’ve had your eye on the popular game Terraria, which typically costs RM20.99. With Play Pass, you can indulge in your gaming desires without spending a dime extra. All premium features are unlocked, and those pesky ads won’t disrupt your experience.

Apps available through Play Pass are conveniently marked with a service badge, making it easy to distinguish and access them.

 

Pricing and Subscription

Now, let’s talk about the numbers. Google Play Pass can be yours at a subscription fee of RM10.99 per month or RM99.00 per year. Comparing this to its counterpart in the US, which costs USD4.99 (approximately RM23.22), or even Apple Arcade in Malaysia priced at RM19.90, it’s quite the deal.

And here’s the icing on the cake – if you’re new to Google Play Pass, you can dive into a one-month free trial. The best part? You have the flexibility to cancel it anytime if it doesn’t meet your needs. Your subscription fee will be automatically deducted from the payment method you’ve set for your Google Play Store.

Getting started with Play Pass is a breeze. Open your Play Store, click on your profile picture, and navigate to the “Play Pass” option in the menu. With just a few taps, you’ll be on your way to exploring a universe of premium apps and games.
