I recently wrote an email to the kind people at Google Adsense Customer Service HQ suggesting that they work on an alternative payment system for plebs like me who live outside the USA. I recently wrote about the predicament I face – it takes 14 weeks from the time I earn money through Google to the time I see it hit my bank account. I decided to let Google know (after all I make them money – they should listen to me!) and sent them an email making a suggestion that they provide alternative methods of payment. This is part of the email I received in reply:
‘As you know, AdSense participants currently receive payments via check in US Dollars. Unfortunately at this time we do not offer alternative payment methods or currencies. However, we hope to add additional payment options in the coming months. Thank you for your patience as we expand our program.’
This will be an interesting develop for tens of thousands of Adsense users – bring it on!
Early last year I sent a similar suggestion to Adsense support (I wanted direct deposit instead of a check), and got the exact same response.
Say, If I live outside USA, will I get the Adsense payment in local currency?
