After a long, long wait and a long, long, long struggle, my Google Adsense revenue finally reaches the amount that makes me eligible for payment.
Google payment schedule
According to Google, payment will be processed during the first week of the following month, in my case, next month. I will then have until March 15 to set a hold, in case I want to hold the payment until the revenue reaches a certain amount.
I will also have until March 15 to submit my tax information, which I can do by clicking on the “Tax Information” tab on my Adsense account’s main interface. After clicking the relevant answers to Google’s questionaire, I’ll be done.
PIN number is important
To enable Google to process the payment, an Adsense publisher must enter their PIN number in his or her Adsense account.
You will be mailed the PIN number once your revenue reaches US$10. Make sure you have given the correct mail address to Google as there have been cases of Adsense publishers unable to receive their mail from Google.
PIN number is important because without it, your account can be put on hold and your Adsense will only display public service ads which don’t generate revenue.
PIN number is not required for Adsense account holders who registered before Jan 28, 2005.
Next step to receive payment
On March 31, Google will post a “payment history” on my Adsense account interface. Then, if I choose to be paid through cheque, I can expect to receive the payment via Secured Express delivery within the first week of April. If I haven’t receive the cheque by April 25, I can ask a reissue.
Western Union facility
I can also choose to receive the payment via Western Union. I can go to any Western Union branch and pick up the money in Malaysian ringgit equivalent within 24 hours after Google posted the “payment history” on my account.
Back to square one
Now, it is back to square one for me as I begin the journey for the next payment. I hope it won’t be too long this time around.
