Google Checkout Settings for another merchant checkout account question?

[3dfuzion]

Let's say your Google checkout account gets closed down. Did you know there's an option with your merchant account settings that still allows you to sell your content using another merchant's checkout account. My queston is this, what merchant payment processor could I use to complete orders? Checkout the screenshot i took within the Google checkout merchant console. The option is there "Sell your content using another merchant's Checkout account. Google will send the system request to the following merchant to link with their Checkout account. Correct me if I'm wrong but does google mean linking another Google checkout account or some other 3rd party merchant account ID that would be accepted within Google's checkout system???

....to link with their...

Why would you even THINK to risk a link of any kind when this whole forum is against linkage and is for operating via stealth

Okay, that's why i'm asking. Great to get a solid reply +1 Thank you!

I assumed this was for being able to link a 3rd party none google merchant account to Google's checkout with a merchant id so you could still process orders via google checkout via 3rd party merchant payment processor. Clearly not, it's for linking other accounts so google can ban and close you accounts if there linked in anyway. Okay, makes perfect since. Thanks!

Yes do NOT do this - GC is horrible when they close accounts...if they smell linkage to other accounts with problems (quote: Let's say your Google checkout account gets closed down.), you can EXPECT big issues.

So far so good. Ran over $2,000 or more via google checkout with new account. Used my business tax id number and not my SSN which also helped. Hope it continues without a problem....

All the best - wish GC was offered for Canadians
