Google Play Submission
There was a policy change from Google for all apps requiring SMS related permissions, as you can see here. The app was not specifically designed for submission to Google Play, but there is a built-in add device feature in the script for downloading your gateway app, thus allowing your users to easily get the apk file.
Google Play Services
The gateway app uses FCM for transactions, so it requires Google Play Services. If your android device has the Google Play Store, then it means it does have Google Play Services.
