Google Adsense removed Western Union payment option
Google Adsense removed Western Union payment option!!! It’s not good news we heard from google. moreover, it can be bad news for those who can accept their payment only via western union. officially google declares that western union will no longer available in AdSense as a form of payment option.
So there is no option rather say goodby to western union. but don’t worry just say ‘goodby Westen union’ and come back to me. I will show you what you should do. As always, I’m here to show you the alternative way, which is still accepted by AdSense.
The news
Firstly, let me share with you what google says. the announcement is below
Western Union will no longer be available when adding your form of payment
As of August 10, 2020, you will no longer be able to select Western Union as a new form of payment. We recommend that publishers currently using Western Union switch to another available payment method before payments through Western Union stop in early 2021. We will inform current users in advance as to when Western Union can no longer be used to receive payments in their country.
As you can see above if you are new to Adsense, after august 10 you cant to select a western union as a new for of option but if you are not new and currently receiving your payment via western union you will have few months before western union totally stop. because as the told us western union will be on work until early 2021. So the thing you have to do be for that day is switching the payment from the western union to other or wire transfer.
what you should do
google did not tell us why they did this. but whatever the reason its already done. so now the big question is what we should do.
what we have to do is switching the payment method from the western union to wire transfer. here I will show you everything you need to know to use wire transfer option.
Setting up the payment form
let’s start by How to set up your form of payment
- Sign in to your AdSense account.
- In the left navigation panel, click Payments.
- Click Add payment method.
- Choose the radio button for “Wire transfer to bank account” and click Continue.
- Enter your bank account information and click Confirm and continue.
as long as you choose wire transfer here is what you have to know about wire transfer. A wire transfer is a method of electronic funds transfer. It allows you to receive funds directly into your bank account. Google sends your earnings in U.S. dollars or Euros, depending on your account currency, via international wire transfer to the bank of your choice and you get the money in the bank account you specify. This is a fast, simple, and secure method for receiving your payments.
when you reach on step 5 “add payment method” you have to provide your bank account information. now let me see you what kind of information you need to have
- Bank account holder name
- IBAN (International Bank Account Number)
- SWIFT-BIC
SWIFT-BIC The SWIFT BIC code is 8 or 11 characters:
4 letter bank code
2 letter country code
2 letter location code
3 letter branch code (optional)
