eBay prohibits Google's Checkout service
According to eBay's announcement, customers of this website will not be able to use the recently paid Google Checkout service, to buy and sell goods on eBay.
Google Checkout service, along with a number of other payment services like Netpay.com , Qchex.com , ePassporte.com and BillPay.ie are listed on eBay's list of prohibited items. Google's payment service allows online shoppers to store credit card numbers and address information into Checkout, so they won't have to retype this information every time they buy from different websites. .
When announcing the Checkout service at the end of June, Google insisted that it had no intention of competing with PayPal, an online payment service owned by eBay.
EBay does not specifically state why they banned Google Checkout, but an analyst said it could be because it is a potential competitor to PayPal. " I think the only logical answer here is whether eBay is afraid of competition. Google Checkout can be a big threat to PayPal, " said Jaap Favier, an Forrester Research official . .
Although Google Checkout does not currently face PayPal directly, it is likely that this will happen in the future. Mr. Favier said that in the long run, Google is becoming more and more active in e-commerce and it is very likely that Google will improve Checkout to get more features and more like PayPal. than.
On the website that describes eBay's accepted payment policy, it says that when a new payment service appears, eBay will evaluate it to decide whether it is appropriate or not. According to the website, some payment services may not be accepted by eBay even though they are suitable for customers in other circumstances.
