Google Adsense earnings via wire transfer to BPI Philippines Dollar Account.

This is related to a previous article about receiving check payment from google adsense (Article Here). As an update to that article, the check cleared around 1 month more or less. A $5 charge as a deposit fee charged during the deposit.

I tried the wire transfer as payment mode, got the details from BPI for my dollar account. The details that google adsense requires when you opt to be be paid via wire transfer.

January 21, 2024, google adsense initiated the wire transfer to my BPI Dollar account. January 22, 2024, a remittance was created in my account. A P1000 difference, perhaps the wire transfer fee around $17, but the charge didnt reflect in my bank statement unlike the check deposit that the $5 was reflected, so I assume that the fees was auto deducted before it arrived in my bank.

For me P1000 is a big fee. If your earning is that huge to outwieght the fee, making it insignificant then good but still that is a big fee, but of course the factor to consider here is the speed. Are you will to save P1000 and wait for 2 months for check via post and 1 more month for clearing, so total of 3 months.

If your more in a hurry to get the money I suggest opt for a check payment, but if you cant wait for 3months then opt for a wire transfer.
