ensis2k	Dear Desura and Community as a linux user i think that desura is pretty awesome and im really happy that gaming finally gets easier on linux. So thank you for making it a reality. Unfortunately as it is right now im limited to redeem gift codes and im not able to actually buy anything. As far as I know currently there are three payment methods supported. Visa, Mastercard and Paypal. As an overly careful person I do not wish to use my credit card directly for online payments. I think that its enough if only one online service knows my credit card number. So visa and mastercard is not an option. Also paypal is not an option for me as i had bad experience with their customer service, totally disagree with the companies policy and dislike them even more for freezing wiki leaks money. So im using google checkout as a payment method on the sites i need and must say that im pretty happy with it. Would it be possible to add google checkout as a payment method? Have you already considered it or is it even already in the making?

Krothie	I don't see why is shouldn't be a payment method! I never used Google Checkout but I think it's pretty new so give it some more time and it will spread, maybe even to Desura! I haven't used this Google Feature yet. I'm going to look into it now! Hope we get this payment method on Desura.

rioninja	I've used Google Checkout plenty of times, and never had a problem. I support it's inclusion. Also, as an ex-eBay seller, I would never use Paypal again.

Raneman	Google Checkout definitely gets my vote. I'm sure since it's google you're going to get f*cked over a lot less, too.

feillyne	Yeah, I support this too. Using Google's Checkout for Humble Bundles and it works finer than anything else. Edited by: feillyne

ensis2k	Do the Desura developers read this forum or is there another way of making feature requests? I'm still very interested in this feature...

feillyne	You're welcome. It's extremely difficult to set it up, but we may see it soon (it's said it's being done now). :-)
