Levis put Checkout on hold.

Levi Strauss & Co.'s main Web site has quietly stopped offering Google Inc.'s Checkout online payment feature, marking yet another hiccup for the new Google feature introduced in late June.

The San Francisco-based clothier hasn't completely abandoned Checkout. It's still available on the Web site for Dockers, one of the company's other properties.

...The Checkout feature was pulled from a few days after Levi Strauss & Co. encountered a "particular issue" with it...

...It's likely the firm will revisit Checkout after Google releases an updated version of feature, due out in the next few weeks. The update addresses concerns merchants have raised about how Checkout orders are sometimes delayed for days by an overly-cautious procedure for rooting out fraud, according to some update details revealed on a Web site Google provides for Google Checkout merchants.
