eBay’s PayPal planning Android integration
eBay’s PayPal planning Android integrationPayPal, the payment system used by eBay, is in talks with Google.
PayPal, the online payment system used by eBay for ordering a parcel delivery, is in talks to integrate the system with Google’s Android smartphone technology.
The system would be incorporated into the Android operating platform, which is used in most smartphones except for Apple’s iPhone, to allow users pay directly for apps and downloads.
It is thought it may work in the same way in which Apple uses iTunes, by storing card details to speed up the payment process.
Currently Android-run smartphones use Google Checkout, which operates in a similar way.
PayPal is owned by eBay, which has itself been entering the smartphone fray with a range of its own apps, including an app specifically for Android that was recently made available in the UK, Australia and Canada.
The online auction site also recently launched the eBay Fashion app for Apple iPhones that allows users to virtually try on clothes that are listed on the site.
