    Why can’t we use prepaid cards? Cheques are taking forever to arrive and I pay so much to cash out
    What are you all non US people doing?

    You can set up a deal with someone so he will pay you with Paypal.

    Paypal is also difficult to cash out in certain countries
    I’m using prepaid cards with several other networks and im very happy with it, I wish also G and PP would also offer that option, it would make life much easier

    from where are u. my first check fee was costly bcoz i request payments via Secure delivery and its fee was 25$ and almost 25$ i pay as bank fee

    u should get payments when u hve enough money in ur bank ac. sharing ac with someone else is not good.
    U can get or lose ur earnings at anytime

    I’m using mostly Payoner card with other networks and freelancers and I find it very good for me, they load money to my card and I can use it in local currency. Has anyone tried to do the same? Any tips? Anyone knows if there is a way of getting my Google earnings onto the card? Can I move money from Paypal to the card?

    I'd also prefer Google Checkout.

    Google will never use PayPal but my problem is that also Paypal is a problem for international affiliates, you can’t cash out from paypal in many countries.
    It would be great though if you could transfer funds from Paypal to prepaid cards.
