How it works

Two sides.
One Google Group.
Fourteen days.

Developers post a closed-test listing. Verified testers opt in via the Play Console. Google's clock counts. On day 14, you ship.

For developers

From listing to production in two weeks

Set up once, watch testers opt in, ship to production on day 14.

1

Add the Google Group to Play Console

In Play Console → Closed testing → Testers, add testershubs@googlegroups.com as a tester group. Without this, our testers can't opt in.

2

List your app

Add your testing track URL, set a price per tester, and publish. Pre-flight checklist confirms your track is set up correctly. Takes about 3 minutes.

3

Testers opt in

You'll see a live counter as verified testers join your track. Most listings fill within days.

4

Ship on day 14

Google's 14-day requirement is met automatically. Funds release to testers, you publish to production.

For testers
