There are a few payment-related issues specific to India. Here’re tips for Indian publishers: 1. Enter an correct, whole address – It is suggested that you update your address in this manner: 2. Select INR (Indian Rupee) checks instead of USD (United States Dollars) checks – INR (Indian Rupee) checks are easy to process and they lower the bank fees imposed (if any) to exchange the dollar checks to Indian rupees. 3. Place a self-hold – You have an option to place a self-hold in case you've attained $100 in unpaid earnings and intend to get paid once in 2 months or once every 6 months. Accrue your earnings and get a larger check in the future. It is advisable that you must eliminate the self-hold on or before the 15th of the month to be paid in that month. 4. Use Secured Express Delivery – Earlier there was a Secured Express Delivery option available to the publishers which was imposing $25 USD for the DHL charges but the good news is there is no such charges after introduction of Blue Dart DHL and check are delivered at your very own doorstep within 10 days. 5. Know your payment cycle – It is recommended to all publishers to head out through the AdSense Payment Schedule Demo which is a 10-minute demo to know when payments are handled. PINs take longer to reach Indian publishers because of mistaken posting addresses and the postal service. Though nothing much can be done regarding the postal service at present, it is again recommended that you must revise your postal address i.e., correct house number and/or house name so that it would be easy for postman to locate your house. In case of relocation it is advisable to place a self-hold on your account till you’ve finished your relocation. You have to make it sure that your postal address is revised before the 15th, and the address should not cross the 35-character limit per line. I believe these tips will help you to get rid of from the most of your AdSense Payment problems. Dedicated towards your success
what is the benefit of holding the payment in google adsense account... even if i put that in bank, i will get some interest money...
Dear PankajKumar Self-hold are intended for those publishers who either are willing to receive a bigger check from Google AdSense instead of several small one since each and every time they have to pay check clearance fees to the bank or they are planning to relocate to a different place and are willing to receive their checks at their new address. Under both of the circumstances they have only one option and that is self-hold. I hope it'll resolve your query in this regard.
Dear perfectblue Self-hold is not a Google AdSense’s policy violation and hence it won’t have such impact on AdSense publishers. It’s a feature available to publishers to help them in the events of relocation, change in address or desire of receiving a bigger check to lower the check clearance fees imposed by the bank. You’re safe as long as you’re following Google AdSense norms, terms and conditions and policies. I hope it'll help you to get rid of your misunderstanding, confusion and anxiety in this regard.
Hey i have one question?? Google send the pin mailer through Courier or normal Post. I haven't Recieved it yet...it's been more than a month
Dear scorpionrebel77 Google AdSense PINs are being sent via International Priority Airmail and takes 2-3 weeks to reach to the address specified in your Google AdSense account. In the event that you haven’t received your PIN in the specified period of time then you can either contact with your local postal services or request for a new PIN from your Google AdSense account after reviewing your address. I'm very sure that you'll receive your PIN if your address in your Google AdSense account is up to date and is accessible to postal services.
