It has provided us many services free of charge. Online buyers to many sites can now make payment for goods and services similar to what they have been doing with Paypal. There is no doubt there is going to be stiff competition between Paypal and Google Checkout.

Even though this is just the beginning, several question that many small online retailers will however wonder which service is better, Paypal or Google Checkouts Although it may be a start, many leading online stores have signed up to use and allow its customers to pay through this system. The good thing is that, Google Checkout also presents protection against deception, unauthorized purchases and scams as well a combined page for tracking your purchases and their delivery, payment etc status. Another impressive point is that your email address is not shared.
