GPay vs. ????

My recent post about the Google Checkout vs. PayPal figures in the context of the possible success of GPay (mobile payments solution) ignores one very important distinction: GPay does not have a PayPal to compete with. There is no gigantic behemoth with years of experience in freezing people's accounts without warning payment processing experience with which to do battle. There are, however, many companies beavering away providing similar services to a greater or lesser degree. So will that mean that GPay enjoys a swift rise to market domination while Google Checkout suffers a long slog to parity with PayPal?
