Google Checkout

Posted on Wednesday 7 May 2008

The main motive of Google Checkoutis to make life easier for consumers in the process of purchasing products or services from online retailers.

Important aspects of Google Checkout™ are keeping consumers credit card information private from the online retailers. Google Checkout™ provides retailers with just the purchase funds and shipping information. Consumers can even have email addresses hidden from retailers too (retailers email a Google address and Google forwards it to the consumer).

Some of the advantages of the Google Checkout™ for retailers are:

  • increased conversion rates

  • enhances consumer trust

  • allows discounts to the retailers (if retailer uses Google PPC, they may not get any merchant fee’s for purchase processing).
