Google Checkout! The Big Competitor For Paypal. - Payment Processor, Payment Gateway -> Checkout Google Checkout now

OpaQue
This service seems to be the answer to paypalsucks.com. PayPal is one of the world's biggest online payment processing company.

After thousands of users having issues with PayPal and paypal enjoying its monopoly all these years, Google has finally introduced Google Checkout. Which will be a Good news for all those people who have had bad experiences with PayPal in the past.

This service is however open only for US residents.

Some of the features of Google Checkout, as mentioned on their site..

Wow! That's pretty cool. Except this will probably have lots of people fighting for the domain "googlecheckoutsucks.com"...

Why? Because Google has always been on the controvesial side of privacy. Google wants to control everyone's email with Gmail, what website everyone sees with Google Web Accelerator, all the webmasters with Google Adsense, and everyone's computer with Google Toolbar. Now they can control everyone's bank accounts too sleep.gif

Of course Google is taking over the internet again. That sounds really cool and I think that will be great to have. A lot of people trust Google and it will probably be bigger than Paypal soon enough. I think that sure people will hate Google just to hate it but that is why Paypal will still be there. If they don't like either then tough luck use a credit card.

Great! this a wonderful thing that I was so long expecting google to put forward. Now a single GMail user id or a Google account can be used to access all the services that we use in the web.

It's pretty nice, but I don't know if it will outdo PayPal. PP is already in use all across the e-commerce world and it's relatively easy to use as well. I mean, for most sites you can either put in your info, or just bill it to PayPal. What's easier? If anything, Google will just be a way of making PayPal easier. Other than that, there's really nothing to it. The people who pay attention to Google will have other options, but the majority of people don't like changing their computers like that.

I welcome any competition for paypal. I wanted to use paypal and did process everything. When I tried to send money it says my email must be verified first and I did those formalities to get my email verified but I never receive any email from them for the verification. I don't understand why they do this. I have already mentioned my credit card nubmer and the last 3 digits in the account as well but still no response.

If Google Checkout is accepts by many, I will rather use this one.

I don't think anyone can beat paypal right now since paypal is tied with ebay..it's really popular..google has nothing except themselves.. but they will probably find something to top it.. never had any problems with paypal so ima stick to it.

google checkout would be a real blast i feel ,it would take over paypal soon if good advertising is done,google is a trusted company and i am sure there are many people who are more than frustated with paypal ,someone here said about google controlling ,but remember that google doesn't force you to use their service its your choice ,and definately google is a safe company compared to many other running currently

Ahh! =D I can't wait till they make it available to countries other than the US aswell. I hope lots of people switch to this. They're indeed not linked to EBay, like PayPal is, but who knows.... Perhaps they can replace EBay with something of their own aswell ;D

Oh very cool! I can't wait for this. I am at school at the moment and the website is already banned. Seems that all these Paypal haters day will be made just better. Google is certainly having a good shot at taking over the web in a way, with the fabulous Gmail, Google Maps and many many others. I will certainly be using this over Paypal.

Have a good day!

i agree totally with you. i liked the example with the messengers and trillian because iam a trillian user by myself and before that i had tu use 3 chat clients... but back to topic : what makes google think that paypal users would come to them and leave paypal? is ther any plan or something special about it i have missed or is it somathing like a remake of paypal ?

Those last two posts are right on the money. YES, Google is trying to set the stage to one-up Ebay and Paypal. Sadly, as usual, I think they're a bit late to the dance. Let's take Google Talk for instance. Nice program? Sure! I and a bunch of friends use it to compliment the usual AIM, GAIM etc nonsense...but, frankly, EVERYONE AND THEIR MOTHER HAS A CHAT PROGRAM NOW!! Myspace and Live Journal just joined the fray. The problem is, I have NO interest whatsoever in managing 8 different chat programs. A universal chat program like Trillian has proven invaluable for bringing that all together, but none of the morons at Google etc have the foresight to develop a product compatible with a universal chat program! They all want to be proprietary so the users are ONLY getting THEIR Ad presence. It's sad...because ultimately, they're going to suffer the same fate Wang did lo those many years ago. IBM, Intel etc survived to this day because they make products that are compatible with the universe. No one will ever survive making products that don't play nice with competitors. (See Microsoft...lol)

eBay and Paypal have been around a LONG time and are very well integrated into the retail market. Utilizing eBay Express etc, outside retailers can have a presence in the auction market and generate sales off their own eCommerce sites. It's a brilliant set up and everyone wins. But GOOGLE seems to be on the wrong path...developing products that set them APART and may ultimately drive people away. Plus which, they really have been SO SLOW to catch up with what's already out there.

I love Paypal, it's used by the PLANET and I've never had a problem with it. I've had problems with individual companies, but Paypal (and Ebay) only made it EASIER to resolve those problems.

I think Google Checkout has a long, uphill battle ahead and I don't see this as being a huge cash cow for them. Sad...but true. And thusfar, Frooogle stinks. I've had better luck with ANYWHERE but there.

    Hi, I tried to install Google Chrome web browser on my Windows XP computer and faced the following

    this comes from but I guess that it is one of Google's racist issues. As I tried from my home
    country Iran, some Google services like Google Code are not available due to bans that the company
    has put on particular advanced services. Because the installer first comes from the sub-domain

    Well it seems Google is going ahead with service even though the huge security risks that are

    even if they got military grade security on their servers, there is far to much risk having your
    medical records floating around on the internet. However, its not like they have been circulating on
