Bangkok, July 24, 2023: Google has introduced an enhanced policy to screen Digital Lending Applications (apps) operating in Thailand, under which developers of personal loan apps must provide documentation demonstrating their capacity to offer or assist with personal loans within the country. This is part of Google’s efforts to keep Google Play safe and secure for users.
