Google Checkout

On Google Checkout's Homepage:

1

Sign up for Google Checkout Merchant

Note: you must link your bank account to your newly created Google Checkout Merchant account to receive payments. You can still proceed with linking your account to Eventbrite and you can even sell tickets in the meantime but in order to transfer money out of your Google Checkout account, you'll have to enter your bank details and have them verified.

On Google Checkout's Homepage
2

After completing the sign up page, you'll be presented with multiple integration choices. Ignore these options and instead, click the Settings tab at the top of the page.

Select the Preferences link on the left hand side of the Settings page.
