To set up AdSense payment information as a beginner, follow these steps:
1. Sign In to AdSense:
Go to AdSense. Sign in with your Google account.
2. Navigate to Payments:
On the left sidebar, click on Payments.
3. Add Payment Method:
Click on Add payment method.
4. Enter Bank Account Details:
Choose your payment method. The common method is Wire Transfer to Bank Account.
Enter your bank account information, including the account number and the bank's SWIFT code. Ensure the details are accurate to avoid payment issues.
5. Set as Primary:
After entering the details, you may need to verify your bank account. Google will send a small test deposit to your account. Check your bank account for the deposit amount, then return to AdSense and verify by entering the deposit amount. Once verified, set this account as your primary payment method.
6. Review Payment Schedule:
AdSense typically pays out monthly if your earnings meet the payment threshold (usually $100). You can adjust your payment threshold and schedule under the Payments settings.
7. Submit Tax Information:
In some regions, Google requires tax information before issuing payments.
Fill out the necessary tax forms available in the Payments section under Manage settings.
8. Confirm Details:
Double-check all entered information to ensure accuracy. Mistakes can delay your payments.

Update Information Promptly:
If any of your payment details change, update them immediately to avoid payment disruptions.
Can I receive payment from adsense other than my country issuing bank account
Yes, you can receive AdSense payments to a bank account in a different country, but there are some important considerations:
1. Supported Countries and Currencies:
Ensure that the country where the bank account is located supports AdSense payments. Google provides a list of supported countries and currencies get full help here.
2. SWIFT Code:
For international wire transfers, you'll need the SWIFT code of the receiving bank. This is essential for cross-border payments.
3. Currency Conversion:
Be aware of currency conversion fees. If your AdSense earnings are in a different currency from the bank account, the payment will be converted, and conversion fees may apply.
4. Verification Process:
Google may require additional verification steps for international bank accounts, such as a test deposit or additional documentation.
5. Tax Implications:
Receiving payments in a different country may have tax implications. Ensure you comply with the tax regulations in both your country and the country where the bank account is located.
If you need specific guidance for your situation, it's a good idea to check the AdSense Help Center or contact their support.
