Indonesia’s Competition Commission (KPPU) will announce its final decision on Google’s alleged monopoly practices on January 21, 2025.

The case revolves around Google Play Billing (GPB), a system mandating app developers to use GPB for in-app purchases, charging fees of 15%-30%.

This investigation began in September 2022 after Google enforced the policy, penalizing non-compliant developers with app removal or exclusion from updates.

In November 2023, KPPU moved the case to the Filing stage, citing violations of Indonesia’s Law No. 5 Year 1999, followed by hearings in mid-2024.

KPPU’s decision will conclude over two years of inquiry into Google’s business conduct and its implications for Indonesia’s digital marketplace.
