Amazon Android App Store Now Supports In-App Billing

Amazon today announced that applications downloaded through its dedicated Android app store can now support in-app purchases. The addition of this feature means developers will be able to offer app upgrades, expansion packs, in-game currency, and magazine issues all with trust-worthy and secure billing for Android device owners.

Amazon says that it offers 31,000 apps in its app store, and believes the new new in-app purchasing feature will entice more developers to list their applications in its store rather than the Google Play Store.
