I want to publish a private app on the Play Store for only my customers to use. Is that possible without having G suite?

I suppose you can publish the app in Alpha/ Closed Beta channel where only the people you have added to the group can see and install the app.

Refer the doc for more info:

Closed beta: Consider closed beta testing if you want to run a test with a smaller group (like within your company or team) or when you know the exact users you want to test your app. If you're testing an existing app that you've published before, only users in your test group will receive an update for your alpha/beta version.

  • Ok, would ANYONE be able to see the app but not be able to get it? I don't want this app to be seen by anyone but my customers, even if they can't install it – Ali Bdeir Aug 15 '17 at 19:20
  • I suppose it is. From this thread: https://stackoverflow.com/a/16775522/4586742 "normal" uses will not find your app on Google Play, but also the activated tester can not find the application by using the search box. – Bob Aug 15 '17 at 19:29

    Or instead of Play store, you can even distribute using other tools, like Fabric Beta: http://try.crashlytics.com/beta/ – Bob Aug 15 '17 at 19:32
