Receiving Chitika Payment by Check
Filed in: Chitika Tips, Life Log, Make Money Online — December 21st, 2005
I received my Chitika check today! This was my third Chitika payment. Previous payments were made by PayPal. Since I couldn’t withdraw PayPal funds from local banks, I decided to get Chitika to send me a check instead. 
We know that Chitika makes payment by PayPal but it support checks for countries that do not support Paypal. Malaysia is PayPal supported but we cannot withdraw PayPal fund from any local banks. After I received my second Chitika PayPal payment, I though I should get Chitika pay me by check for all future payments.
Request to be paid by check
I wrote an email to Chitika’s customer support to request for payments to me to be made by check. The staff told me to remove my PayPal email address in my Chitika account before sending my request to their tech department. The whole process was done in a few days. There was no extra charge for check payments, just like Google Adsense. Great!
Waiting for the check
When everyone received their October 2005 payment by PayPal, I was still waiting for my check. There was no payment report in the Chitika account. Again, I wrote an email to Chitika customer support to ask about my check, I was told that my check has been sent.
Check received
It only took 12 days to arrive, faster than Adsense check.
Frankly, the check looked so fake that I was wondering if it is real or not. 
My two cents
It was not a big check (much smaller than Adsense check) but it was another source of my income (real money in hands). Now my paypal income relies on BlogAds alone. It costs too much to receive BlogAds payment by check…

I’m also interested to know how you fared after the audit.

I read Darren’s post the Chitika Audit thing. It seems that any clicks from asian region will not be considered as “clicks” thus no income.
this means, to have a good chitika income, your traffic must be from outside asian countries.
but no harm in trying chitika

Just wondering what do other bloggers out there do for taxes. I have been blogging for a while now and I have never submitted my earnings on tax returns
