Default Is Google checkout an option compared to 2CO ?

My first question would be is Google checkout an option when compared to 2CO. The transaction fees with 2CO is pretty higher when compared to Google Checkout.

Yes I agree with Samantha with Google Checkout, there are no additional monthly, setup or gateway service fees, as well as Google Checkout is not charging you to transfer funds from your Checkout account to your bank.

2CO charges around 8% transaction fees plus 25% reserves which is practically off-track.

2CO (2checkout) provides an easy to setup service for receiving payments for your products worldwide.2CO looks more professional solution for an online business.

2C0's customer support also is excellent as compared to other payment gateways.2 checkout respond to your email within couple of hours, and they also have a toll free 800 number where you can call them 24/7. I have been very satisfied with them.

Thumbs up Google checkout is surely a better one

I think Google checkout is a much better option to go for. Google has been trusted since many years and is reliable enough. When you compare the features of google checkout and 2 checkout you will find google checkout is a much better option to choose. Google checkout has many features in comparison to 2 checkout and also the cost of google checkout is much less in comparison. While selecting a product, one always thinks about the cost and the features of the product. Google checkout is the one you should choose if you are considering the features as well as the cost.

Although, i cannot deny the fact that 2CO has a larger customer base and transaction history when compared to Google Checkout. Yet, i would consider google CO is growing.

Google Checkout is having a tremendous fraud detection algorithm/procedure. Orders approved by Google checkout can be considered genuine and we can skip the verification process. 2CO fraud detection algorithm/procedure is comparatively weaker then Google checkout.

Well, i wouldn't say weaker. I would rather say a few backlogs that need to cover up with 2CO.

Google checkout's seller protection policy is similar to Paypal's policy.

The per transaction fees charged by Google Checkout is much lesser as compared to 2CO. Google offers protection against fly-by-night websites, and since the merchant never receives any credit card numbers, buyers can feel confident that their information is safe.
