BERLIN, GERMANY — 7 May 2026 — Almedia, the Berlin-founded advertising technology company and the third fastest-growing company in Europe according to the Financial Times, today confirmed that its flagship app Freecash has been reinstated on Google Play following a three-week review process.

New users can download Freecash from the Google Play Store immediately. Freecash has over 70 million users worldwide and has paid out more than $300 million in rewards to date.

Moritz Holländer, Founder and CEO of Almedia:

"We are delighted to have Freecash back on Google Play. The past few weeks have been challenging, but our team worked incredibly hard to get here. Thank you to our partners, our users, and everyone across the industry who reached out with support."

Almedia is continuing to work with Apple on the reinstatement of Freecash's iOS app and will provide updates as they become available.

Rewarded UA has earned its place alongside Google, Meta, and AppLovin in the mobile marketing mix. It has become a core channel because the additional user engagement delivered post ad-click drives retention and long-term value that other UA sources struggle to match.

By showcasing our game directly to people who already play games and tailoring offers around in-game behavior, Freecash helped us scale installs globally faster and more efficiently than traditional channels.
