for example, information about your purchase history, and gives you protection from credit
card fraud by not giving your full credit card number to the vendor. You can use your Google
email account to log in to Google Checkout in your phone, or you can sign up for a new
Google Checkout account. Payment can be made with a credit, debit, or gift card. Some
vendors may also accept payment through your phone billing account.
It is not possible to buy applications through Android™ Market in all countries.
