- Spyckie 19y agoThis is a good question and I don't think we should kill the discussion by downplaying his choice of words. I've looked into micropayment models before - Amazon had by far the cheapest fees compared to paypal and google if you were dealing with anything for less than $5. This was around a year ago, though, so I don't know if there is anything better that has come up since.
- rms 19y agoDoes Google facilitate user to user transactions? Maybe you could hack something together with the API, but out of the box I think it is only client to merchant.
