    cart error 1-click checkout possible for digital goods?

    I'm selling a simple digital download that needs an extremely short purchasing process. Rather than the 3-5 clicks it takes for someone to add it to their cart, select quantity, click checkout, etc., I want them to be able to click on one "Buy" link and have it go directly to a Google Checkout (and/or PayPal) purchase. Is this possible with ZenCart?

    Google Checkout Buy Now buttons do what I'm looking for, but they don't support digital downloads so I've installed ZenCart. Thank you for your help!

    Sorry for not mentioning this initially, but I'd also like customers to be able to bypass registering an account on ZenCart. I'm told Google Checkout allows this.

    Yes, Google Checkout will achieve what you seek..
    PayPal Express also does same job.

    misty - thanks for the response.

    I have Google Checkout set up now and it still requires people to add the item to their cart and click checkout. Do you know of directions for simplifying the purchase process to 1 click?

    (1-click on a Buy button taking them to a login screen for Checkout or PayPal, no cart necessary)

    Thank you!

    You could add html for simple Google checkout button in product
    description...but how customer gets download after purchase
    is another matter.

    misty - if I understand you correctly, you're implying that ZenCart cannot be configured for 1-click purchasing in a similar way a Google Checkout buy-now button can.

    Google Checkout's buy now buttons without automated digital delivery isn't adequate. I've come to ZenCart to handle the delivery, but want to make the purchasing process as simple as possible and bypass the cart. You've made it sound like that's not possible with ZenCart. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Thanks.

    I am not implying anything..
    This was your question
    Do you know of directions for simplifying the purchase process to 1 click?
    And I answered it..
    There may be zencart way to do what you seek, if there is,
    I don't know it..
    Hopefully zencart dev/s will view this thread; they coded
    zencart and could advise you further.

    Misty - thanks for trying to help. As you've said, hopefully someone from ZenCart dev can shed more light on this.

    I see ##################.com has a little script that can do this easily, but it costs $18/mo to use it. I'd prefer ZenCart if it can do the same.
