最近在研究VOIP，这方面美国比较强势，但是好多公司都用第三方系统作为支付手段，Google checkout 和Paypal用的比较多，Checkout是Google推出的一种国际支付网关，可是不支持中国大陆地区的信用卡，当然我们也还是有方法可以对付的：）

具体方法是：

申请的时候在地区中选择 HongKong， 然后 其他信息按照信用卡大陆地区的格式填写，然后OK

很奇怪系统会从信用卡里面扣除8港币，然后就验证通过了。最后可以在物流信息里面选择中国大陆的信息

至于8港币是干嘛被扣除的，我发邮件去问Google了，还没回复。。。。

更新：8港币用于认证信用卡，1-14天返还。转发Google的回信。

Hello,

Thank you for your email. Please be assured that your credit card was not charged for 8 HKD.

The 8 HKD transaction you see pending from Google is actually a pending authorization request between our billing system and the bank that issued your credit/debit card.

Authorizations are the initial communication between our billing system and the bank’s billing system to ensure that your credit/debit card is valid and able to be used.

When you check your bank account or credit card statement, payment authorizations are often listed as pending. These transactions might remain in your account anywhere between 1-14 business days, depending on your card-issuing bank. Please keep in mind they are authorization requests only, not actual charges.

If you have any additional questions, please feel free to contact us again.

For general program or account questions, please review our Help Center at http://checkout.google.com/support

Sincerely,

Taylor
The Google Checkout Team
