Founders' beta opens December 1, 2026
Pass Google Play's 12-tester rule with real developers.
You test their apps, they test yours. Short daily tasks spread across 14 days mean testers actually use your app — and a transparent credit balance keeps the swap fair.

What Google asks of new personal developer accounts
12 testers
At least 12 people opted in to your closed test.
14 days in a row
Dropping below 12 restarts the clock.
Real engagement
When you apply for production, Google asks how your test went.
Applies to personal accounts created after November 13, 2023. Google can change these rules — always check Play Console Help.
How it works
A fair swap: the time you give is the testing you get.
- 1
Add your app
Create a campaign with your closed-test link, what to test and how many testers you need.
- 2
Test others, earn credits
Pick apps from the swap board and complete their daily tasks. Every accepted report earns credits.
- 3
Your testers get to work
Testers join your closed test and follow a 14-day task plan. You see each tester's progress.
- 4
Apply for production
After 14 days you have real feedback and a clear record of your test to apply with.
Built around the problems swap groups have
What we're launching with — and why it matters.
| Typical swap group | SwapTesters |
|---|---|
| Testers open your app once and forget it | Short daily tasks for 14 days, each with a quick report |
| Someone leaves, you drop below 12, the clock restarts | Quiet testers are replaced from the waiting queue |
| You can't tell who is really testing | A progress board for every tester |
| Unclear rules and favours | A transparent credit ledger — every credit has a reason |
| Support only in English | Support in Turkish and English |

Why I'm building this
I build Android apps myself. When my car-expense app Car OS was ready for Google Play, I hit the same wall as countless other developers: 12 testers, 14 days in a row.
Finding 12 people who stay opted in for two straight weeks — and actually open the app — is much harder than it sounds. SwapTesters is the tool I wished I had: a fair swap where testing means real use, not just an install.

Frequently asked questions
Is SwapTesters free?
Yes. At launch you can swap for free: test other apps, earn credits and spend them on your own campaign. Credit packs and the founding membership are optional shortcuts.
What are credits? Can I cash them out?
Credits are the swap unit of the platform: you earn them by testing and spend them on testers for your app. They can't be exchanged for money.
Do you guarantee Google Play production access?
No — only Google decides that. We help you run a real, well-documented closed test, which is what Google asks for.
When do you open?
Founding members get in on December 1, 2026 (closed beta). We open to everyone once the beta has proven itself with real campaigns.
What if you don't open on time?
You get a full refund — that's the launch guarantee.
How do I pay?
Through Gumroad, by card. Gumroad handles the checkout, sales tax and your receipt.
Which apps can be tested?
Android apps in Google Play closed testing at launch. iOS (TestFlight) and web apps follow next.
Is SwapTesters affiliated with Google?
No. SwapTesters is an independent service. Google Play is a trademark of Google LLC.
