Googling your card

I am pleased to see that Google has brought its online payments service to the UK. The more payment services choices of global scale and reach we have the better. I wonder how long it will be before our banks will provide a similar service. I wonder how worried the likes of Google and PayPal might be about being dis-intermediated by the banks!

I have not had the opportunity to experience the Google Checkout yet but I hope it will allow you to use your card for online payments without forcing you to store the details there for keeps. No disrespect to Google security at all, but the power of its search engine scares me.

Question: If one googles " Joe Bloggs credit card details" how many card details might get displayed in a fraction of a second?
