Hey

I am wondering how many of you use Google Checkout. Would this be a good thing to add to our site?

Let me know.

It's Google's new secure online payment system, a competitor to Paypal. Haven't tried it yet and don't know anyone personally who has an account yet.

from what I know, it's pretty neat (no major bugs), but very low user base right now

I wouldn't mind looking into a system that can break the Paypal hegemony. Others have tried and failed. Once Paypal hit critical mass a few years back, it became a juggernaut. It's the Juggernaut, beaaaatch! :twisted:

While it might be good to break paypal, it's also just another thing to have money spread around on - plus International kids are usually left behind a little with these schemes intially.

I am sure it is like 1% less, i think ebay s trying to block it , but dont see how they can (free trade an all that) but yes another account where your details are floating round the net.....
