    when i signed up for Adsense i was reading the FAQs and they listed countries where they pay in local currency.

    I want to know do they really pay you in local currency or dollars?

    how do they pay in India?

    We do all our business in USD it is by far the most used currency for worldwide business

    Do not know how they pay in India, but some of the guys in DP will confirm that soon on this thread

    Google pay us in india through indian rupee check and you have to deposit it in any bank where you have same name account(as your name in google adsense account). If there is any citibank branch in your city then you will get your funds within 2 days after deposit of that check.

    Saad could you tell me how much the cheque was for and how much the bank took as commission/charges? Just want to know how much our banks charge for clearing US cheques. And did you deposit in foreign currency account or rupee a/c

    I had my income directly deposited to my bank account here in Canada. I am paid in Canadian dollars with a decent exchange rate.

    Thanks Saad for info, Yaar use Bank Al Habib, they have $5 processing fee only. This time I'll deposit my check in Al-Habib. Previously used MCB. Bank Al Falah has less fee too. In How many days PICIC Commercial Bank clear your funds?

    People from EU countries surely have the hardest time to make decent money, since the dollars is so bad copared to the Euro. That sucks. its really depressing for me.

    hmmm, i actually save fix deposit in Euro and now i earn pretty good comission due to the exchange rate. Euro and pound is standing high.

    By the way, yes, they pay in my local currency(google payment)
