Google Checkout module for ZC 1.3.x (beta)

[micmed]

Our store is now live with Google Checkout using version 1.4.7. Our store is designed as a gift site. Some of the "ship to" locations will be classified as businesses while others will be classified as residences. When we prepare labels for shipping on the FedEx site, the site will check if the address is a residence or business and charge us differently by using FedEx Home v. FedEx Ground. FedEx Home appears to be more expensive.

Is there anyway to have Google Checkout validate the address to see if it is a residence and then not allow the user to select an invalid shipping method? This seems possible as it is exactly what FedEx.com is doing.

Thank you for your advice.

I am bumping this because I too have an issue with this and find it hard to believe that noone else has this issue. Mainly my issue is that GCO gives no option for reular Fedex ground shipping. I cannot use GCO because of this.

I'm sure I'm doing something wrong. I installed the Googel Checkout module. It shows up in my admin/modules/payment section. I was able to set it up.

But I don't see an option for Google Checkout in my shopping cart. I see my paypal check out, but not the Google checkout. Did I miss a step? I do have a merchant ID and password from Google.

Google Checkout on the actual Payment page.

Has anyone figured this out?

Can I copy and paste the info and insert it into the right page. Which page?

FYI- I am not giving up on this module because Google covered my hide this summer when someone used a stolen Amex card for $1500 in Brazil.

Time to ask for help again. I have 2 shipping methods set up on my store. 9.99 for orders under $75, and free after that. When someone checks out with GC they get the option to pick one of the options. It would be great if it was smart enough to assign them the proper shipping option. I have disclaimers saying "pick the proper option or your order will not ship" but every now and again someone places a $5 order and picks free shipping. Frustrating for all parties involved.

Anyone have any Idea on how to force GC to use a certain option? I really can't believe they haven't fixed this module yet.

Thanks for any help.

I'm still having problems with the responsehandler even if the authentication has been disabled. My webhosting has checked all their settings and they should go thru without problem according to them... I'm really frustrated by google checkout and the non-existing support they give...

That's the price we pay for low fees. Actually, using Adwords is a deal because others will charge you monthly for using their services and you don't see anything for it. With Google, the monthly fees go back into advertising, which is where many of us fall short. 1/3 od profits should go back into advertising. With companies that are small like mine, I cannot afford that and have opted to target my main audience by advertising in their most prominent magazine.

Back to GC. Clear your Cache.

All the Merchant keys are totally completed? Production or Test?

Checked? https://checkout.google.com/

Checkout production environemnt always requires HTTPS.

Is your bank Acct confirmed? Analytics, Taxes? ETC.

I'm still waiting and wondering when GC will be available to those who are not in UK or USA.

Google's Euro HQ is here in Dublin but, we still have not got GC in Ireland.

As far as offering GCO as payment option like Paypal currently works, it's a tricky deal because when this has been done in the past, the radio button option send the customer to google checkout but doesn't charge anything so they shop for free.

Can you show me the code that needs to moved and where, I'd like to try this.

I am losing orders to the clumsy checkout and than having to Google Invoice each customer.

Where can I find instructions for adding a module (specifically I want to add the google checkout module) - maybe I'm being dumb but hey it's been a long week(!) and I can't find what I want by searching - every thread/post assumes that the module is already installed!

Make sure your GC Logs directory is 777, check inside of it and make sure.
