    Hello - I am trying to diversify the payments I accept and trying to not accept so much money through Paypal because I am not a Paypal fan - there really is no other option on eBay, however on here, I was wondering if sellers have any luck accepting payments through Google Checkout? If you offer both as an option, which one ends up being more popular?

    Paypal is getting too powerful! :(

    Even though you offer both payment option, most people here still prefer to use Paypal. I bet that some of the members here even never heard the word Google Checkout before.

    I use both Paypal and Google Checkout but have been using Paypal longer.

    No real preference really.

    Most here pay via Paypal.

    Google Checkout is not really a preferred option.

    Moneybookers and E-gold are also used. Alertpay, 2CO and Epasseporte not so much, but yeah they do have a market here.

    Paypal is widely accepted payment processor while google checkout is not available for international users so mostly people use Paypal,Moneybookers and 2CO.

    DON.

    PayPal will obviously be the biggest option. After that you can do Moneybookers, then AlertPay comes in less popular.

    GoogleCheckout, I have not been for that long while here but I bet its really uncommon processor in here.

    It looks like Paypal it will be! I dislike that there is only one real option for payment processing online ... but I guess that is the way it is right now ...

    PayPal is more popular than the others. But Google Checkout is not that bad.

    I don't use Google check out any more, I had gotten too many charge backs from them, their fraud) check is not the best. (this may have changed as I stopped using them about 6-9 months ago..) But I am not risking it again. I use mainly paypal..

    Have you checked in to 2check out.

    I use paypal only. I've never tried to use Google Checkout because nothing I've ever bought required it.
