    I am thinking to use Google AdWords to advertise my services globally. When i checked payment option i found, for people who live in INDIA (like me) wants to pay in either US $ or Indian Rupee (INR) they are allowed only Post-Pay method with Credit Card payment option.

    I emailed google and asked them i don't have a credit card, so can i use my debit card as it has Visa logo on it. Google adwords replied with YES, i can use debit card if it has visa logo to pay Google AdWords ad campaign costs.

    I am looking for a real person from INDIA who really has used his/her debit card to pay Google AdWords. Let me know which bank's card you have and what logo you got on Visa/MasterCard?




    I am also looking for real world experiences: did you have to submit any documents to your bank in order to make your debit card payable Google AdWords fees? is there any currency conversion fee they charge?

    Google adwords accepts debit card only of USA clients. Debit card for other countries are not acceptable. Indian clients can use only credit card to use adwords services

    Most people / banks confuse debit / check cards. They call combo cards debit card.

    A debit card generally will not have a visa logo on it. When using a debit card you have to enter your pin.

    A check card you can use at any location that accepts credit cards that has the same logo as your card. You do not have to enter your pin.

    So what you have more than likely is a combo check/debit card. Therefore it will work at any place that takes visa(or w/e matches the logo)

    Yes, combo is what it is. I can Withdraw and Deposit thru ATM, pay it wherever Visa credit card acceptable in INDIA and Abroad.


    Do you have personally used your Debit card to pay Google AdWords? Are you from India?

    Hi ,
    If you are form India then you have better option to pay through credit card, I think google do not accept the debit card payment from Indian advertisers. I'd like to share a link https://support.google.com/adwords/answer/3207373?rd=2 for the same and also when you are going to payment option with your adwords account, there you can see only credit card payment option if you have selected for Indian billing address.
