Google AdSense Payment via Western Union Expanded to More Countries
Filed in: Adsense Tips, Make Money Online — August 12th, 2008
Last October, AdSense publishers in Malaysia and a few other countries have been able to receive AdSense money via Western Union Quick Cash.
Now, Google AdSense expanded the list of countries to a few more: Bulgaria, Egypt, Lithuania, Morocco, and Taiwan. Congrats! No more bank fee and long cheque clearing time!
Here are some useuful information for AdSense publishers who want to receive AdSense money by Western Union:
- Make sure your AdSense payee name matches your government-issued ID. If it is not, you can update your AdSense payee name with this online form.
- Western Union Quick Cash is only available for INDIVIDUAL, not to business.
- Follow these steps to opt in Western Union payment method
- Here are the steps you need to pick up your Western Union Quick Cash payment
- The maximum payout for Western Union Quick Cash is USD$2,800. Your payment method will be changed automatically to “Secured Express Delivery ($USD24 processing fee) if payment exceeds USD2.8K)
My two cents
A good news for the newly included countries but another disappointment for those publishers not in the listed countries. Publishers in India has been left out again. There are also requests to receive AdSense payment by PayPal.
Anyway, the best payment option is Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT), which directly transfer the AdSense money into you bank account.
However, EFT has to communicate with your bank. So, it is more difficult to become available in your country compared to Western Union.

I still prefer receiving the cheque from Adsense. The moment the cheque was received is really feel good.

It’s too bad my country still not in the list. Hope in the next update, most developing countries are included. Thanks for your information.

My first payment was received using Western Union. I collected in RHB Bank. I was so excited with the first payment. Now, I am still waiting for my second payment.

My first payment took more than 1 year and was received using Western Union. I am waiting for my second payment by next month.
