This would be great as an option. I have been using Google checkout with WSN links fr a while, manually obviously. But yeah, it is useful for non cart purchases.

It feels a lot more complicated to me, because paypal has a nice simple example IPN script to plug into and I can't find anything like that for google checkout. Do you know where I can find an example google IPN script in PHP? Googled it without luck, all I found was a huge collection of files which they seem to want me to use all of (ugh, what a mess) in unclearly explained ways.
I understand you are a busy man Paul, so i would be willing to pay you if you focused a bit of time msking this happen, on the proviso you got it to work in GBP as well as USD.
By the way do you yourself take any other form of payment apart from PayPal, because I have abandoned them for good. Never again will I deal with or trust PayPal. There are a few things I want to pay you to do in the next few months, If you are willing, and I will need some way other than PayPal to pay you. I am in the UK so checks are impractical.

The spot for providing the API callback URL says: "Specify a URL for Google to notify you of new orders and changes in order state. You must provide the URL of a server running 128-bit SSLv3 or TLS."
I don't have SSL and have never set it up, so this is going to require a crash course in SSL, which would probalby take weeks if I could devote my entire days to it, based on how complicated it seems from the tutorials I've tried so far. It will also require each WSN user who wants to use google to take this same crash course in SSL to figure out how to set up their own certificate. It thus seems a bit impractical and will get very little use from regular people.
