Title: Google Checkout Cart Integration?
Post by: Aeronautic on January 12, 2007, 08:33:23 pm
I searched the forum for "google checkout" but found nothing - sorry if I missed it.

Has anyone created a plugin for Google Checkout's cart feature? Or even the Buy Now button?

I've got the PayPal cart working well. However, a recent very bad experience with PayPal is driving me to look for alternatives.

I'm not asking for someone to build it - just if one exists.

This would be for a 1.4.x series site.

Many thanks in advance.

You should check the PHP sample integration that we provide: http://code.google.com/apis/checkout/samplecode.html
It contains a client library for Google Checkout as well as samples to perform level1 and level2 integrations.
Doing a level 1 integration with the sample should be quite easy.
Else you can use the HTML API which requires only crafting a simple form element with all the shopping cart information. You can find the documentation here: http://code.google.com/apis/checkout/developer/google_checkout_html_api.html

I hope this helps.

I have a basic implementation of google checkout using html forms for that cart http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=32231.0

In theory it should work however I wasn't able to test it (I'm from Europe and didn't want to signup with fake info)
If you're interested in that feature, send me a PM with your email and you'll have the archive in a few

Patrick - thanks very much for the links and info. I will dig a bit deeper into all those links.

Stramm - awesome - as usual.

PM coming. I wonder if the two can live side by side? Time will tell.

It is amazing how little Google Checkout has come up around here, no? Or did I miss something in my search?
