Google Offers Adsense Payments Via Western Union

Today there is great news for AdSense publishers in Argentina, Chile, China (mainland), Colombia, Malaysia, Pakistan, Peru, the Philippines and Romania.

Google recently announced that they are now able to make payments to publishers in these countries via Western Union. This payment option will eliminate waiting for checks or paying high bank fees for processing. Publishers without bank accounts will benefit by being able to get paid.

“At Western Union, one of our strategic goals is to facilitate commerce and expand our service offerings around the world,“ said Royal Cole, Executive Vice President, Western Union Payment Services. “This unique program will bring the ease, convenience, speed and reliability of the Western Union brand to a new group of consumers - perhaps ones who’ve never used Western Union before.“

The program has been highly successful, Cole said, and plans are in the works to expand the program to additional countries by early 2008.

Western Union will also do the hard work of converting the payment into local currency, eliminating the need to convert the US payment.
