Welcome to Android Central! Any other problems with Google apps, like Gmail or Google Drive? Does this happen on both wi-fi and mobile data?

Try going to the App Manager, select Google Play Store, and Clear Cache/Data, then Force Close. Do the same for Download Manager.

If that doesn't help, try removing your Google account in Settings>Accounts, then adding it back again.

Also make sure that your Google Wallet has a valid credit card associated with it.
