Amazon introduced two new services for online payments. These services allow web site owners to shift payment transactions to the online retailer. Checkout by Amazon is like Google Checkout . Another one is Amazon Simple Pay.

Checkout by Amazon is a complete ecommerce checkout solution that provides your customers with the same secure and trusted checkout experience available on Amazon.com. It offers unique features including Amazon’s 1-Click and tools for businesses to manage shipping charges, sales tax, promotions, and post-sale activities including refunds, cancellations, and chargebacks.

Amazon Simple Pay is a set of payment-only products that allow your customers to use payment information from their Amazon.com account as a payment method on your website.

Amazon Simple Pay provides additional capabilities to support real-time shipping and tax calculation, promotions, and order management-tasks including order cancellations, order reports and shipment tracking. If you don’t need Amazon’s end-to-end checkout pipeline and order management capabilities, but still want to enable your customers to use their payment information already on file at Amazon.com
