A guy sign up under a business name Fast Internet Solution. He's expecting his first check next month. The thing is he has no bank account under that name. You can create one but in Indonesia bank accounts require an actual corporation named with lots of tax ID, etc. Also, cash checking fee is so expensive in Indonesia. Anyone knows how to easily create a bank account in any countries where google support EFT. This is assuming that you do are not resident of the corresponding countries. I've heard you can open US bank account for $17. Any other countries?
because of the new Patriot Act you can't open a US Bank account without a Social Security Number and a Permanent Resident Card if you are not a US Citizen.
Surely you need a bank account to withdraw your money. Once you will receive the cheque, you have to use it to get the money transferred to your bank account.
I think Surely you need a bank account.When i received my first adsense check ,I opened a new bank account for the deposition of check alone .Previously I doesnot have bank account.
Honestly i think it is better to set up your bank accounts and everything so that you can keep this going for a long time and in future things get easier for you.
