Google Adwords Billing Changes

If you are Indian, advertising with Google will be more costlier than before because Google has brought some important changes in adword accounts for Indians, two changes are

- The minimum amount of a prepayment has increased from INR 120 to INR 500 for AdWords accounts with billing addresses in India and a selected currency of the Indian Rupee (INR).
- The activation fee for creating a new account has increased from INR 60 to INR 250. The purpose of this increase is to bring the India activation fee in line with that of other countries.

If you make a net banking payment, you’ll be unable to enter an amount less than INR 500 on your Make Payments page.
