The web checkout service was combined with the NFC mobile payments app launched in September of 2011 called Google Wallet under a platform brand of the same name.

Google Checkout provided fraud protection and a unified page for tracking purchases and their status.

It is a checkout process that people would integrate into their online shops so that customers can quickly buy things by providing a simple username and password.

You would earn $25 for every merchant that processes at least 3 unique customer transactions and $500 in sales by using Checkout.

Google Checkout used to have a program allowing US IRS Certified 501(c)3 Non-Profit organizations to collect donations online without being charged the standard fee (2.9% + $0.30 per transaction under $3,000 monthly income, with lower rates for larger volumes).
