Google Expands Into UK PayPal Territory
We trust them with our search queries, e-mails, calendar information and, more recently, documents and spreadsheets. Now Google is preparing to keep watch over the holy grail of data protection – bank and credit card information.
From today, UK customers will be able to use Google’s online payment mechanism, called Checkout, to make purchases through participating websites.
The idea is that instead of consumers having to enter payment details every time they buy something online, they can refer retailers to Google, which will hold such information centrally and arrange payment on the site’s behalf.
