Almost everyone know the name google. There are three types of people who get benefit from google one is people who search on google, people who invest on google and people who blog for google.

          This tutorial will be useful for everyone who are somehow related to google. Now a day the question that is roaming around every bloggers mind that is “How to get swift code for their bank in India”. Google adsense has now implemented bank wire transfer for blogger on mid 2013 but it was not compulsory for everyone as check was another payment option but after May 2014 it is compulsory to use eft. To transfer your fund directly to your bank account you need to have a bank account, IFSC and SWIFT code. This is really good news for the blogger as they won’t have to wait long time to receive check after issue date. It takes almost 2 to 3 weeks (depends on the courier service) to receive check at your doorstep while in eft it takes almost four business days to receive payment to your bank account.

What is SWIFT code and why it is needed?

Before you put your bank SWIFT code to your google adsense payment setting; make a clear idea about SWIFT code. SWIFT stands for “Society for worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication”. It is 8 to 11 digit alphanumeric code. Code structure image is given below.

          11 digit swift code is quiet similar to IFSCC code but it has some difference. If we segment SWIFT code into four parts we will be able to understand it. We will consider this segmentation from left to right. In the above image from left to right first four digits are SBIN. These four digits define the bank code i.e. name of the bank in this case it is for State Bank of India. Next two digits are country code i.e. in which country the bank is situated. Next two digits are for bank location and last three digits describes branch code of SBI. Here in this case it is XXX. When the last three digits are xxx then it defines the main bank branch.

          Now you know what SWIFT code is and now you will know what the need of SWIFT code is. SWIFT code is mainly needed when someone wants to transfer money from country to country. Not all the bank branches have SWIFT code. Most urban banks have SWIFT codes but very few banks in rural area that have SWIFT code. SWIFT code allows you to send and receive money internationally.

  

         If you are a bloger then you probably know that google is a company from other country. So to have payments from google in India you need to have a SWIFT code.
