Guess I was reading too much fine print :)
This is great news!
Just think of all the postage charges Google will be saving.
It's good now we get the option for express courier payment and local currency, which will cut down dramatically the time of the cheque getting here and the amount of time for the banks to clear it ;)
so it's a good starting point!
Will we get paid via EFT this month on February's earnings?
I asked the same question in this thread. See the answer in messages #28-30 on page 2 [webmasterworld.com] (no we don't).
edit: re-read the answer and we don't get the EFT for Feb.

See the answer in message #29 on page 2 (yes we do).
No, we don't. Starting with March Earnings. Feb Earnings which we will receive at the end of this month will be paid with a normal cheque.
I could also set up a dollar account. If the dollar/euro rate would be a lot higher within a few months then I would earn a lot more. But then again there is the risk that the rate will drop even more..
Make up your mind Zygoot: currency broker or Internet publisher? :-)
Strategy is not about what you do. It's about what you don't do.
I hope that AdSense one day would also support Arabic. A large portion of the world population speaks Arabic and they buy a lot of stuff from the US and other countries and they are best targeted with Arabic ads.
I hope Google listens to this. It would be a real opertunity for all of us Arabs.

Is there still a delay of one month for the payouts?
Yes, I don't think they changed that part of the TOS.
They still have to do the normal checks and account reviews before they send out (or authorize) payments.
Thank you Google!
I've been waiting for this day for 18 months now.
If something goes wrong with the transfer of funds, we must wait until the next billing cycle to get that payment?
Correct. If an issue does occur with EFT payments, your earnings may roll over to the next payment cycle. I strongly advise those of you who choose EFT to double-check (or even triple-check) that your bank account information is accurate.

Something like that would help with security and catch any wrong Bank account information submitted before the real deposits start flowing.
Just an Idea

I find it weird there isn't any verification process when I sign up for EFT. All I did was keyed in sort-code and account number (I'm from the UK). And that's it. No pin, no verification, no password. Nothing.
I don't even know if my bank will accept EFT. This is scary. But i'll give my bank a call tomorrow morning to verify it. I'm with Natwest.
Being on the West coast and in the UPS club I definitely want the EFT. Apparently they ship all the West coast UPS checks in a box on the same day as the rest from Florida, BUT TO some place on the West Coast who then turns around, sticks them in an UPS envelope which then goes out the day AFTER everyone else has received theirs by USPS. Plus our UPS service $UCK$ big-time and last month our 'securely sent' check was delivered to the WRONG address and opened!
THANK YOU for EFT!
It was such a big problem to accept wire transfers for all te countries? :( (SWIFT CODE!)
I'm in Romania. The bank system is working well; i'm so frustrated....
I dont have the electronic payment option and I dont think it will be available in the near future...
