Upgrade without Google Play?

Hi. I have a degoogled Pixel 6 phone with GrapheneOS installed. Meaning it is a privacy purposed phone with no Google software installed on it.
I would like to upgrade to the PTO version but I can't because it can only be done through Google Play which I do not have and will never install.

I would very much like to see an upgrade to pro option without going through Google Play first.

Cheers

You need to contact me at support@macrodroid.com to discuss. I cannot put any info in the app about alternative payments as it will get pulled from the Play Store (I know this for a fact as it happened a few years back!)

You could post it on this forum in a sticked thread, I don't think Google can stop you

I'm fairly sure you can sign into your Google account in Aurora Store and then make the purchase through the playstore API. Then just log out of the Aurora store session, and Google will be gone again. (note: I haven't tried making a purchsse through Aurora like this; I've just read it can be done)

I have a new phone with Android 12 that I'm preparing to replace the current one. I installed Aurora Store and entered the Play store credentials; everything works except the "Your purchases" section. I probably did something wrong, but I searched a lot without finding a solution :(

Good suggestion and that seems to work indeed.
