Google Play Carrier Billing Coming to Verizon October 18

According to sources of ours, Verizon is planning to allow for Google Play carrier billing on October 18. Once live, users will be able to spend up to $25 per phone in the Google Play store and charge it to their Verizon account. Buying apps, music, and movies doesn’t get any simpler than this.

We are assuming the $25 fee is either a one-time transaction fee limit or a monthly limit rather than a life time limit. Basically, that means that you can’t buy a Galaxy Nexus or Nexus 7 and charge it directly to your VZW account.

Still, you have to be excited for this news. Long have we been jealous of AT&T customers and those from other carriers that have allowed for carrier billing.
