There is also the side that no one has mentioned... Offering all payment
methods that would appeal to your customers. PayPal or Google Checkout
being better is really a relative statement. If you have demands from your
customer base to take their payment via one or the other, you should
probably just offer them both. Neither have a per month minimum, and there
is no obligation to keep it, so why not offer them both?
