Three out of 10 major online retailers offered new payment methods as an alternative to credit cards in December 2007, according to a study by Brulant.
That is up from the 24% of major online retailers who offered such payment methods in February 2007.
More than one-fifth of online retailers surveyed offered Bill-Me-Later. PayPal was a close second,with 19% offering it as a payment option. One out of 10 online merchants studied accepted Google Checkout for payment.
