EFT payment troubleshooter
You need to go through the EFT sign-up process. Watch this video to understand the entire process.
- Verify EFT is available in your country.
- Confirm your bank account details for the EFT payment
- Sign in to your AdSense account.
- Click Payments > Payments info.
- Click Add payment method.
- In the "Add a payment method" section, enter your bank account information.
- Click Save.
- Next, you need to verify your bank account using a test deposit. Review your bank account statements for your test deposit in the next 2-5 working days.
Depending on the country in which your bank is located, the deposit will be labeled as one of the following:
- AFS RE GOOGLE
- AFS RE GOOGLE ADSENSE
- ARVATO FINANCE SERVICES LIMITED
- BFS FINANCE LTD
- CITIBANK IRELAND FINANCIAL SERVICES
- Google AdSense Payment
After you receive your test deposit, verify your bank account:
- Sign in to your AdSense account.
- Click Payments > Payments info > Manage payment methods.
- Click Verify now. In the drop-down menu, select the test deposit amount that you received in your bank statement.
- Click Verify. If the amounts match, your bank account is verified. Select this bank account as your desired EFT payment method.
You're now set up to receive your AdSense payments by EFT.
If your bank credits your account quickly, you may receive your test deposit before our system has been updated.
To check the verification status of your bank account:
Click Payments > Payment info > Manage payment methods.
You will notice the test deposit verification status listed next to each bank account for which you have entered the information into your AdSense account.
Your finalized earnings must cross the payment threshold. If your estimated earnings were above the payment threshold but your finalized earnings were not, then you will not receive payment in the current payment cycle.
You can find your payment history on your "Transactions" page. All your payments account transactions are organised by month and by transaction type so you can easily find things like earnings, payments, adjustments and taxes for a billing period.
To view your payment history, follow these steps:
- Sign in to your AdSense account.
- Click Payments > Payments info.
- If you have separate payments accounts for AdSense and YouTube, make sure you select the correct payments account.
- Click View transactions.
Your payment history defaults to the detailed transaction view for the last three months. - Click a monthly statement to view the list of transactions for that billing period.
