I'm wanting to use Google Checkout but not sure if I have to use google adsense too? It says I get free transactions if I use google adwords as long as I meet the percentage requirements. What I'm wondering is if I can still accept credit card payments using Google Checkout without using google adsense or adwords...?? (I'm willing to pay transaction fees) ?
I use Google Checkout for one program I am in and do not use Adwords or Adsense. It makes no difference to Google.
What he said. You could be using Checkout and, say, Yahoo ads and Google doesn't care. They just provide incentives for adsense users.
You save on transaction fees if you are utilizing Adwords, but it is not required ... I love Google Checkout ...
