Hello Forum Members,

To setup Google Checkout with your E-Commerce package first login to the Control Panel of the Site. Once logged in go to Operations >> Payments.

In the payments menu you will need to select the check box next to Google Checkout. When you check this box the screen will then display all the Google Checkout Settings.

1. First thoug you will need to Sign Up for Google Checkout. Simply go to checkout.google.com to sign up for an account
2. When signed up and in Google Checkout, navigate to Settings >> Integration
3. Enter API Callback URL: https://ecompayments.monstercommerce.com/Google.aspx
4. Select Callback Method: XML.
5. In the 'Account Information' section, note your store's: Google Merchant ID and Google Merchant Key.

Now on your E-Commerce Package enter in your Merchant ID, and Merchant Key, and press save on the bottom of the page.

You will now be fully integrated with Google Checkout!

Hi Joe,

I setup Google Checkout successfully, but it is only allows me to ship to US addresses. When I used Google Checkout with my old shopping cart (osCommerce), it had no trouble dealing with international customers and merchant calculated international shipping options. I have selected the allow international customers option in the Operations tab and I have 2 international shipping options also setup and enabled.

Is this a known bug or could I be missing something.

Thanks,
Rohit

Hi Rohit,

Our integration with google checkout is set up that way for a reason. The reasoning is because when we first integrated with Google, they did not allow international shipping and this was added after we had initially integrated.

At this point in time though I do not know whether we will be changing our integration or not, so right now all you can do is domestic shipping with Google Checkout. If you need to have international shipping I recommend using a payment gateway such as NetworkSolutions Merchant Account, Paypal, or QBMS if you use QuickBooks.

I have followed these instructions exactly but when I click the Google Checkout link I get the following error page:

Server Error in '/' Application.

Runtime Error

Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine.

Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on remote machines, please create a <customErrors> tag within a "web.config" configuration file located in the root directory of the current web application. This <customErrors> tag should then have its "mode" attribute set to "Off".


<!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->

<configuration>
<system.web>
<customErrors mode="Off"/>
</system.web>
</configuration>

Notes: The current error page you are seeing can be replaced by a custom error page by modifying the "defaultRedirect" attribute of the application's <customErrors> configuration tag to point to a custom error page URL.


<!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->

<configuration>
<system.web>
<customErrors mode="RemoteOnly" defaultRedirect="mycustompage.htm"/>
</system.web>
</configuration>

Hi joeyc,

The only thing that I could think of for this is that something you have setup in your settings may not be 100% correct. I would contact support and they will be able to help you resolve this.

Thanks, they got this fixed for me, I guess I had not added the shipping origin. I have one other question though. Is there a way that I can use only Google Checkout and hide the default checkout procedure?

Thanks
Joey
