Create Account
If you have a Google Account, you can add the Google Checkout service by logging in with your existing username and password at http://checkout.google.com. If you don't already have a Google Account, a free Google Account will automatically be created for you when you sign up. Your Google Account gives you access to a number of free Google products.
To create your Google Checkout account:
- Visit http://checkout.google.com.
- Click Sign up now.
- Fill out the required fields and click Create my account. Time to shop!
- To activate your Google Account, check your email account for a verification message from Google and verify your account.
- Find sellers that accept Google Checkout and start shopping!
If notified that an account with the email address provided already exists, you may have already created a Google Account when signing up for another Google service or purchasing a Google Product (such as Picasa, Google Earth, Google Apps, or Google Video). Instead of creating a new account on the left side of the page, provide your login email address and password on the right side of the page. After providing payment and shipping information, the Google Checkout service will be added to your existing Google Account.
Verify Account
When you create a new Google Account, you need to verify your email address. Google will send an email containing a verification link to the address you used to create your account. By clicking the link to verify your email address, you'll help us protect your account information.
If you create your Google Checkout account directly from a seller's site while making a purchase, your first order will not be influenced by the Google Account verification process; however, you need to verify your email address to sign in to Google Checkout and make additional purchases.
You may also edit your general Google Account settings at any time.
If you aren't receiving confirmation emails from Google Checkout or a seller, check the spam folder in your email account. Occasionally, email spam filters incorrectly classify valid emails as spam.
Manage Purchase History
At this time, it isn't possible to edit or delete items from your purchase history. We hope this section of your account will serve as a useful record of all your online purchases.
Multiple Accounts
To take advantage of the benefits of Google Checkout, we strongly recommend that you create only one account. Your complete purchase history is stored in one place, and you'll only need one username and password to shop quickly and securely. For Google Checkout promotions, however, there may be limitations regarding multiple accounts. Please refer to each promotions' terms for more details.
Close Account
You can disable Checkout by contacting us. You won't be able to sign in to Checkout or view your Purchase History; however, you can still access other Google services currently linked to your Google Account.
You can also choose to close all Google services associated with your Google Account.
