Match has also agreed to work towards offering Google’s billing system as a choice in its apps. Instead of paying Google a payment for payments that occur outside of its billing system match has set up a $40 million escrow fund in anticipation of a certified agreement has been reached and is required to keep track of all the fees it would’ve owed Google starting July 1st.
