Exclusive use of Google Checkout As Payment Processing?

Does anybody have a website where they use Google Checkout as the only payment processing method?
AbleCommerce said that I could hide the regular checkout option and force GCO as the only payment method. I would like to see this in action before I purchase the AbleCommerce software. Thanks!

I'm sure it's easily done.
What is your reasoing behind that? On a personal and a business level Google Checkout isn't my first pick to pay.

That's for the reply. Yeah, AbleCommerce told me it could be done as well, but I was hoping someone here already does it so I could see how it interfaces before buying the software.
I already use GCO exlusively on my current website, and it's by far one of the better payment processing providers especially for fraud protection, low CC rates, and ability to get reduced or free processing since I use Google Adwords. I also prefer it, because I hate websites where you need another checkout process, as I hate doing that myself, and many of my customers already have GCO accounts.

There's really nothing to see "in action". The checkout buttons are rendered based on payment methods that are configured and available for the visitor. If GC is the only method configured, only the gc checkout button will be visible.

Thanks for all the replies.
I've downloaded 7.0 to my server and added Google Checkout. I have two buttons appearing on the basket page, the normal 'Checkout Now' and the Google Checkout button. I was told I can hide the regular 'Checkout Now' button so GCO is the only option with the code, set visable='false'
Where and how do I make this change?
Thanks in advance!

You need to hide this Checkout button on two places 1)- Mini Basket and the 2)- Basket
In order to hide this on mini basket edit the
ConLib/MiniBasket.ascx file and find the following line of code in it
Code: Select all
<asp:ImageButton ID="CheckoutButton" runat="server" ToolTip="Checkout Now" SkinID="CheckoutNow" OnClick="CheckoutButton_Click" />
and make it look like
Code: Select all
<asp:ImageButton ID="CheckoutButton" runat="server" ToolTip="Checkout Now" SkinID="CheckoutNow" OnClick="CheckoutButton_Click" Visible="false" />
This will hide Checkout Button on the Mini Basket
Now Edit the
ConLib/Basket.ascx file and find the following line of code in it
Code: Select all
<asp:ImageButton ID="CheckoutButton" runat="server" SkinID="CheckoutNow" OnClick="CheckoutButton_Click" Text="Checkout" EnableViewState="false"></asp:ImageButton>
and make it look like
Code: Select all
<asp:ImageButton ID="CheckoutButton" runat="server" SkinID="CheckoutNow" OnClick="CheckoutButton_Click" Text="Checkout" EnableViewState="false" Visible="false"></asp:ImageButton>
Now edit the
ConLib/Basket.ascx.cs file and find the following line of code
and make it look like
This will hide Checkout Button on the Basket Page
