My First Adsense Payment!

By Elizar • Apr 27th, 2008 • Category: Blog Money, Everything Eli, Google

I was suppose to post pictures of our company summer outing last April 24, 2008 in Terrazas De Punta Fuego. All pictures are uploaded to my flickr account and ready to be posted here, when I decided to check today’s earnings (I’m still surprised to see $10+ without doing nothing).

That’s when I noticed that there is a new item in the ‘Reports’ drop down ‘view’ menu… It now has a ‘Since Last Payment

The first thing that struck me is that, although I did takek the ‘hold payment’ option off, looks like the April earnings was not added to the total amount to be withdraw.

Only reason I could think of, is that I think I did that AFTER the 15th of April (which is the cut off of setting up hold). So, my April was earnings was still there and according to Googel, ‘April earnings will be finalized by May 10th

I set the ‘payment on hold’ option again (and will not withdraw the earnings till it’s $3,000!!!!) hahahaha!

How To Receive Western Union’s Quick Cash Payment

After Googling around, looks like withdrawing money from Wester Union’s Quick Cash payment is as easy as providing the necessary information to them. Infos like:

  • The amount of your payment
  • The Money Transfer Control Number (MTCN) for this payment
  • Your government issued ID (Passport, Driver’s License, National ID, etc)
  • Sender’s information:
      Google Inc.

      1600 Amphitheatre Parkway

      Mountain View, CA 94043

      USA

And I’m going to find it out soon! After this weeks’ (night) work week… and will be bringing the wife along.. since my Adsense account is named after her.. (I am banned you see.. :D )

I can’t believe it! My very first Adsense earnings!

Gonna buy myself a $5 Miele vacuums! *wink*

    But you should stop holding your cheque. Imagine if you got banned and you have 3000 on hold.

    I got my first check in january (http://www.xhydra.com/diary/south-african-publisher-gets-first-adsense-check.html) and i never let google hold my check. Every month I just take my check and RUN !! holding is too risky

  5. Hey, wow.. nice thinking! Of all people,I should be the one who knows that Google bans! (i got banned 3+ times)

    Thanks for the tip!… I guess with Google moolah every month for now on….. hopefully..

  6. but of course, if you’re not doing anything wrong you should be ok… it’s what somebody else’s evil mind i’m worried about

  7. […] really really hope that this will become a monthly thing. I excitement i felt during the first adsense withdrawal experience was still there (probably because it’s higher than last month.. If that’s […]
