PayPal has announced an initiative called ‘Guest Payments’ that will let merchants collect credit card payments without requiring customers to open a PayPal account.

This is great news for those of us who have received messages from customers wanting to pay for a product or service via credit card, but who have been confused, frustrated or turned off by the need to create a PayPal account.
