Yahoo and Paypal Take on Google Checkout

Yahoo and Paypal have announced that merchants that accept Paypal as a form of payment will have a special shopping cart icon displayed with their listing in Yahoo Sponsored Search results. It will look like this:

Paypal Icon in Yahoo Search Results

This is similar in concept to Google’s display of a special icon in the Adwords listing of merchants who accept Google Checkout as a form of payment. Interestingly enough, the Paypal logo is a shopping cart that looks strikingly similar to the original Google checkout logo before they changed it to is current version.

    Would you have any idea on how to signup for this service with YSM? I definitely have noticed a worthwhile click increase on google ads with the shopping cart icon, and I imagine that similar results would be seen on Yahoo.
