Google checkout

dasha101 · 03-06-2007

Google has launched its own payment processor. The address is https://checkout.google.com. This is can be used for shopping online. Anyone who has tried this? I have read from their site that account holders can earn $10 upon signing up.

I think anything with Google will mostly have a big success, but I think they still have to work for sometime to beat beat payapl.

If you wil sign up by the end of March 2007, you are entitled to a $10 bonus. I have not tried it myself . I did not find anything I like among its accredited online stores. Google Adsense should use Google Checkout as one payment option.

i have heard of them, google is always bringing out new things to compete with other things. i agree about using it to pay for adsense checks, much faster. havent used them but i might later, i'll still prefer paypal

Hopefully , google checkout will give some fight to paypal who is currently the king as its being used by masses and regarding the 10$ bonus , I am not sure about this but I guess it was like spend 10$ to get these 10$ in your account.
Lets see how paypal reacts to this .

Google is very much active in anything that is online right now. I just hope that they will continue improving this Google Checkout cos I would rather trust them than paypal if they will come out on top. Maybe in a year or two.

Online stores which accept GoogleCheckout are still limited. Any idea on how to become a merchant account holder of Google CHeckOut? I could not seem to find the requirements on its site.

This is new service from Google and they give $10 as a signup bonus. So we can try this new services. You must have a CC to open an account.

PLUS

They WILL NOT charge any fees till the end of this year i.e. 31 December 2007

So, use it until there's a small fee.

PayPal's fee is very high in comparison....lol
