Checkout Buttons

Customers looking to use Google Checkout™ on your site will look for this button -- available in three sizes:

Buttons for mobile websites are also available. Details on how to create the right button for your website can be found at the bottom of this page.

Where the button should go

• Only use Google-hosted button images (available below).
• Don't alter the size, shape, orientation or any other aspect of the images.
• If you require users to register or sign in to your site, you must ensure Google Checkout and Buy Now buttons are available before the login process so buyers are able to check out with Google Checkout without having to log in. If you sell digital goods with the Checkout Digital Delivery API and your Checkout buttons are behind login pages, you must display the Google-hosted Checkout acceptance logo before any login pages of your website. View the details of our button policies.
• Make sure the Checkout button appears "above the fold" on your cart page (i.e. visible without vertical scrolling on 1024x768 screen resolution).
• If your site has an off-white background color, make sure to use the transparent button image (available below).

Provide a good customer experience

• Post carts quickly: When a user clicks the Google Checkout button on your site, they should be taken to Google Checkout within one second and without seeing intermediate pages.
• Don't break the back button: Users who click their browser's 'Back' button should be brought from the Google confirmation page directly back to your site. There shouldn't be any intermediate pages in-between, nor should Google Checkout open in a new browser window.
• Use 'not available' buttons when necessary: You should display the 'Google Checkout not available' button (using the variant parameter) for orders not adhering to our content policies.
