Examples of sites using Google Checkout

[chucklasker-BANNNED]

Anybody want to put their site on there that is using Google Checkout with MIVA Merchant? I'd like to show some examples to clients.

I also added a link on the Basket Contents page for other payment options. I did not want customers to think Google Checkout was the only option available.

Thank you.

Google checkout for Miva 4 is running here, so far it's been fine, but I have no custom shipping modifications that might cause problems:

I can't help but notice that most of the "examples stores" no-longer use Google Checkout. Could anyone post reasons for this? A change in philosophy, too hard to implement, doesn't work as advertised?

It fails to charge for shipping if the customer has not created/signed in to an account in your store before checkout thru google

Re: Examples of sites using Google Checkout

Ah. Thanks. That sort of runs entirely counter to the point of the Google Checkout, doesn't it? I have to admit I am dubious about the whole scheme, for reasons mostly of no-longer wanting to trust Google with my financial information. But I can see this is likely to be a major thing in the future.

I personally don't like how it takes over checkout. You can't change the look and feel, it becomes a Google store.

- You can't use Gills GOL Analytics Tracking for the e-commerce values as Google doesn't deliver the customer back to your stores invoice page.

- You have to have duplicate any coupon offers in both Google Checkouts back end and Weilands Miva Merchants coupon module.

- Generate a Google Checkout invoice, and when customer pays it generates a new $0.00 order in Miva Merchant

- Can't pass sales values to affiliate programs like Performics, Share-a-Sale and Commision Junction

You don't have to create the coupons twice. The google checkout interfaces with the MIVA Merchant coupons if using the coupon redemption module.
