Western Union has expanded the availability of cash payment option for Google AdSense with the addition of six new payout countries including the UAE, Lebanon, Croatia, Moldova, Slovenia and Tunisia and expect to add more countries later this year.

Western Union payment option was initially introduced in a limited number of countries in November 2007, the Western Union payment option is now available in 30 countries including China, Morocco, Jamaica, Philippines and Ecuador. The companies have recently added six new payout countries including the UAE, Lebanon, Croatia, Moldova, Slovenia and Tunisia and expect to add additional countries later this year.

AdSense is a program for online publishers who want to make money from their online content-social networks, mobile applications, media and news sites, blogs, e-commerce sites, and web portals-by placing ads against that content without requiring direct advertiser relationships through their own sales force.

Western Union payment option delivers cash payments to site owners and publishers who use AdSense. Western Union said that it would deliver AdSense revenue in cash on the next business day following the payment, eliminating the lengthy check clearing process.

Sanjay Gupta, senior vice president of business development and strategy at Western Union, said: “Our relationship with Google applies our proven payment technology to new and innovative applications, empowering business owners to expand global revenue opportunities.”
