Google Checkout Sign-Up Promotion Extended
Hot off the presses: Google has notified sellers today that it has decided to extend the current Google Checkout $10 Sign-Up Bonus promotion until at least March 31, 2007 (so it may be extended again).
Good news–we’re extending our $10 promotion for new buyers until March 31, 2007!
With Valentine’s shopping just around the corner, we hope you’ll update your messaging and banners to drive more sales during this busy shopping period.
Google has also provided new graphics and tips for leveraging the upcoming Valentine’s Day to drive traffic and increase sales (and just in time leading online jewelry retailer Blue Nile announced last week that you may now use Google Checkout to pay for that big diamond ring).
Here are a few updated promotion details:
- As early as Monday, February 5, 2007, an updated Checkout button will automatically appear on your site. The button will display the following message: ‘$10 off for new users only.’
- Buyers must redeem their $10 off by April 30, 2007 if they sign up between February 16, 2007, and March 31, 2007.
- Buyers may only receive a maximum of one ‘$10 off’ offer.
- You may combine the $10 promotion with your current coupons and discounts, but not with other Google Checkout incentives.
The Google Checkout team also recently launched a new merchant success stories page with quotes from online retailers that have adopted Google Checkout. Cool to see ChannelAdvisor customers Mark Fitzgerald from Grapevinehill, Lanny Morton from SportsCloseouts and John Wieber from Laptopbroker featured on this short list.
