网路上看到的文章，大家觉得amazon为什麽用paypal呢? 只是因为是竞争者吗？据说Amazon也要推出自己的金流， 不过看看营收，应该也只有挨打的份吧，觉得 Amazon总有一天会被买掉... Why you can’t use PayPal on Amazon.com Published by Andre May 25th, 2005 in e-commerce. Tags: No Tags. I have a few euros on a PayPal account and was planning on buying a few books. But Amazon.com (Earth’s Biggest Bookstore, they say) doesn’t accept them. I though that there should be a good reason for that. And there is. Apparently, Amazon.com is thinking of developing their own payments service. PayPal, works very well and has millions of users worldwide but it belongs to a long time competitor. According to Amazon.com’s head of operations: using PayPal itself is not part of Amazon.com’s plans. From Amazon’s shareholders point of view I can undestand that using a competitors system may seem like a very bad idea. But from users (who pay) point of view this has proved to be a very big mistake. Amazon.com auctions are failing and eBay is fostering. Among other reasons there’s is the fact that 74% of eBay auction payments are made using PayPal. PayPal has helped eBay put Amazon’s auctions in second place. Will it help another big bookstore compete with Amazon. If I was an online bookstore, this was the time I would be running to PayPal’s website to thinkg o registering myself has a merchant. These are the little competitive advantages that allow smaller businesses to compete and strive. Share This -- ◣ ◢ http://snipurl.com/rf18 ≡''≡/ ◣ζ by redman --
