Money Transfers To Adwords

[yanov]

Does any body knows how do these transfer act?
Can you transfer the money from your card to Adwords like to an account? When you pay to adwords do they take every time (for example) $1?
The bank offered me two kinds of debit cards:
MasterCard(pay $200 and get them back when you destroy it.transactions cost 0.5% of the sum)
Visa Electron(pay $50.transaction is=$2+1%of what you tranfered .POS terminal tranfers are free).
The POS Terminals are like small machines which can be seen in restaurants or in the banks, right?
Which one shall I use?
Thank you in advance,

Dont exactly know what you mean but I pay by credit card from the UK and this is what happens -

I set up the adwords for say August and spend £1000

That amount is then taken from the card + VAT at the end of August...no extra card charges.

I don't know whether this is applied to you but I found that it's the best option for me based in Canada.

I set up a US cheque account with a US Visa card through a local bank. All earnings from AM and AdSense are deposited directly to the cheque account. This US cheque account is then used to transfer fund to the US visa just before the due date. Every thing is free except an annual fee for the Visa which is about $65 US/yr.

Ok,I'm sorry for not being clear.
Can I use Visa Electron to buy things from the net and Can I transfer money to Adwords using Visa Electron?
Because it is about 4 or 5 times cheaper than the ordinary debit card.

One more thing when I start setuping my account in adwords and reach to the way of paying there is only one option and it is "Credit Card". It is written that you can use debit cards and other ways but I cannot find a way to setup it with debit card.

Yanov, I'm not sure if you already have an AdWords account or not. Either way, though, I think you'll find the following links from the AdWords FAQ helpful.

This first link is to a general page, with links to other pages covering a variety of related topics.

Payment options FAQ:

The two links below are for information more particular to your question:

How do I make a bank transfer payment?
[adwords.google.com...]

What do I need to know about bank transfer?
[adwords.google.com...]

This one is worth reading too:

Can I switch my currency or payment options after setting up my account?
[adwords.google.com...]

Hope you'll find your answers here!

BTW, the AdWords FAQ is an often overlooked resource for finding basic information about the program. Since it is so often overlooked, here is a link to the searchable FAQ page!

I wouldn't have asked you for help if I hadn't read that already. I've read the whole "Adwors Support".There is nothing mentioned about payment via debit cards(except that it is possible).The say it is possible but do not mention how to do it and which cards are capable of doing it.Yesterday a friend of mine told me that you cannot use Visa Electron for internet shopping.Other people tell me that I can.The bank that offers this debit card cannot tell me anything.In what world am i living.:)

There are two types of Visa Electron:

1) Has the security number printed across the back of the card (where you sign). This type can be used on the internet and for phoned orders.

2) Does not have the security number. This type cannot be used for any transaction except for customer present sales.

Also, most debit cards act like credit cards, i.e. the merchant can't tell what kind it is, so if that is the case for you then using it is the same as a credit card.

For example, I have a VISA which is actually a debit card, i.e. I don't get a bill for it, it simply uses what's in the bank account.
