If you are a Google Adsense publisher , iam sure you are very happy because you are going to save 25$ every month from the free bluedart check delivary. Iam personally not happy with this option because Google didnt allow us with the option to select the payment delivery and directly changed everyone’s payments to Bluedart system. Even though its a free service, if you calculate the waiting time and loss of interest on lakhs of rupees for unknown duration paying around 1000Rs for a courier is always feasible.
Here are the payment dates for the last few months taken from my Accounts > Payment Summary section.

This month the payments were already late by 4-5 days than normal and followed by this there were holidays which may be a reason for the delay, but no one all over India recieving the payments is a surprising thing. After searching on the web i found that the payments were going to be issued from Google Hyderabad office which is not more than 25 kms from my home. Considering the waiting time iam happy if Google would have sent me a Check through DHL , charged me 25$ and send the check from Ireland because i used to get the cheques around 1st – 3rd of every month. In the current case there is no information when the payments would be recieved by the adsense publishers in India.
EFT – Direct Bank Deposit
When companies like Paypal.com can offer services like Direct Bank Withdrawal why cant Google offer this service to all their publishers. Iam listing down some options which Google can offer to their publishers for better customer satisfaction.
1. EFT – Electronic Funds Transfer
2. Option to opt for 25$ – DHL Service
3. Adsense Payment Withdrawal to Paypal
4. Adsense Payment Withdrawal to Western Union
5. Adsense Payment Withdrawal to Google Checkout
6. Adsense Payment Credited towards Google Adwords Bills
7. Adsense Support via email for Payment related queries.
Google Adsense Help sections tell you that the Tracking Numbers for Payments made through Blue Dart, OCASA or DHL are updated by the 15th of the following month and you can check the updates at www.bluedart.com
I too wish the option for secre payments could be there as it was working fine and we used to get the payments timely – if they add this option now atleast i would be happy give 25$ for getting the checks timely
atleast they might follow any of ur other suggestions -but they actually never listen to us most of the times
When Adsense is having a office in India and a Blog for Indians, then its confusing why they dont consider the user requests and think about all the recommendations made by the publishers which are sometimes helpful to everyone!
Yes, you are right Amit,
Every Month I used to receive my check 1st-3rd, this month it’s 6th Today but still I didn’t receive my check
and Google statement about tracking number is very funny
Normally Tracking number is for track the document(check)
but google will update every 15th about tracking number, it’s mean, why we need tracking number after we receive check?
Google Should Change their payment method for indian publisher other wise they lose publisher in india
25$ for DHL delivery is good for us
@saranr – There is no better option than Google Adsense for Indian Publishers, so lets get straight and accept whatever google offers us. They are not going to lose publishers even if Google pays on Net60 rather than Net30 system.
Regarding Payment, its true that the payment is really getting delayed like Paypal which is also delaying from the last 10 days – https://www.amitbhawani.com/blog/paypal-bank-problem/
Google has employed a lot of wise-heads. And now see what these guys have done? Would they have taken the same decision for US publishers? This lack of choice would have been received with much anger and frustration. But for the Indian publishers… there are not many with the sense of freedom righteousness who will react against this gross act of taking away the choice from the end-user. Whether or not you send it via blue dart, I’d still want back my choice of DHL. And that is not to say that their efforts at the moment should be at working and making EFT possible. See what a bunch of geniuses can do? India is waiting for payment.
waiting for the check, hope they start the eft thing. You are right, if paypal can do it, why can’t google!
Amit,
any updates about Google Adsense Cheque?
I googled to check whether anyone is facing this issue. Atleast i am happy that i am not alone.
I wrote to google without any response. Google is at center of the evil path.
Hi Amit,
Did you get your check?
I don’t know whatz going on, had google sent check for indian publisher or not?
as you know, any indian publisher received their check?
@Wordpress SEO Specialist, Hey, it seems like no one in India has recieved the adsense check, so there is no need to worry. I think this delay may be for 1-3 months as its a new system being implemented in India. Dont worry about it in my opinion!
Hi amit,
thanks for such a wonderful blog.
have u recieved you check now ? today is 27th may
i live in a town in haryana and not recieved my check.
i contacted the blue dart office but they are not giving the registered post (speed post) reference number and saying get it from google.
Should i wait more or reissue
how much i should wait ?
Why doesn’t Google start Western Union transfers in India? It will be very easy for every publisher to en-cash their earnings…
why google is not paying through western union in India? though it is doing so in many other countries.
I think blue dart delivers at a fast speed. They send it within a week. Big G wont do anything bad I am sure of that.
I think Google just play the game and takes every step and reason to not pay us and takes all money back …They are just playing the game with Indian publishers ..we in IT very great but we don’t have this type of system like EFT ..also paypal has lots of restriction with indians and still we are very great in IT and we don’t have this type of simple systems ..lol really very strange..
hi. pls use the information act made by rbi . i mean, we can bring EFT. if we ask rbi about the restriction(right to know act ) . so if send frequent application to rbi (example : million of publisher in india. if they spend 10 rs. they will consider). they will consider about EFT. i will post this information in all related blog. so we can bring EFT. as a citizen of india. we have right to know about the information. pls post this comment or consider that you can also apply for
pls send your application about that ” whether google is restricted by RBI. RBI restricting the google”. this is right to know act”. atleast we send some some appication. they will consider .then we see the change. because google is holding all our money for the interest. if you afraid of posting this comment here. pls use your relatives/friends to send application to rbi.
