Google Play Order ID updated to new format
All my recent Android app purchases show a new order ID format. The OLD format: [merchant ID].[actual order ID] We could use this format to check if the prefix of the order ID matches with the merchant ID and prevent possible hacks by apps like Freedom. The NEW format: GPA. 1234-5678-9123-45678 All my recent orders start with " GPA. " (yes the additional dot is also there) There is a 17 digit number divided into 4 blocks The first 3 blocks contain 4 digits each and the last having 5 digits I want to know what does this number represent, the significance of the sub-blocks, is the merchant ID
