PayPal Mobile Checkout Rocks

Thursday, July 12th, 2007

I just had the pleasure of spending a couple of days in London with the folks from the UK and US PayPal Mobile Teams.

They’d put on an event called MUSIC (Mobile UK Summer Immersion Camp) and I’d been invited along to both attend and take the stage to speak. (A stage The Who have played on!)

There’s some very cool stuff happening with mobile and PayPal have the right tools and attitude to take the mobile payments world by storm. Funny when you consider PayPal was born 9 years ago to send payments between Palm devices, they’ve gone full circle and back to their roots!

We (Palace Marketing Ltd / web2txt) were the first merchant to go live with the brand new PayPal Mobile Checkout and had been running tests for a few weeks prior to the recent official announcements.

Follow up: Check out my article on dev.mobi - it explains how to get your account enabled with the two callback requests you need to use the checkout and even provides a PHP code sample to help get you connected.
