Not Microsoft, but there's Google Checkout, it's basically PayPal but run by Google.

Doesn't exist, that I'm aware of. And that's a good thing, imo.

Some stuff from MS:

They don't even make mention of any MS payment system

It looks like they have (or had) some point of sale services, but that's about all I could find:

About the only thing that is even close that MS has is Digital River. However they take payments for Digital software downloads that are provided by MS.
Other than that, I don't believe MS has a payment system similar to PayPal or Amazon.
