Google Gbuy Payment System Launching Soon

June 13, 2006 | By Gobala Krishnan |

If you’re looking for an alternative to Paypal, your prayers may be answered soon. Big Daddy Google has decided to launch itself into fierce territorry controlled by Paypal (owned by Ebay) with it’s new “Gbuy” payment system, expected to launch very soon.

Gbuy is expected to be free during the initial phase, but merchants may eventually be charged a 1.5 percent to 2 percent per-transaction fee…

From what I understand, if you’re advertising using Adwords, you will be allowed to put a “Gbuy” logo on your ad if you’re using it to collect payment.

Who knows.. this could be a great thing. It’s good that Paypal will finally have a big dog chasing it’s lame and slow ass…

It says that GBuy currently use for US Merchant and only customers from US can buy it. Hope we can discuss mroe about this one, because I am willing to get my US debit card in this short term.

And also, if it’s not too much to ask, would you care for a link exchange between my blog and yours? I have put your link at my site.

Hope to hear from you soon.
