What does everyone think about a component or functionality to securely process payments through third parties such as PayPal, Amazon, Google Checkout, etc.? I'm guessing that PayPal, etc., offer APIs to allow various programming languages to integrate payment, but otherwise am extremely ignorant on the subject.
I've been programming a MMORPG in GAMBAS for the last three years or so that will require a $0.99 payment for an extra life (should you die), and I'd like to handle transactions in-game rather than through the web for customer convenience. Any information on how this could be accomplished would be extremely helpful. Also, while slightly off-topic, I'd like to know if there is anything I need to watch out for with respect to processing payments. People are regularly killed for $20 and information security these days is a mine field, so I really don't want to be responsible for doing something stupid that leads to headlines about a security breach or the like.
