What Is Google Payday?

Affiliation

In a response to a Google AdWords user's question in March 2009, a Google customer service representative stated that Google Payday was not affiliated with Google--and that the representative had never heard of it.

Kit

Google Payday was offered for a teaser price of $1.95, for which the buyer was supposed to receive a CD with information about how to profit from Google's AdSense and AdWords programs.

Fees

Purchasing the kit automatically enrolled a buyer in a web-hosting program with an upfront fee and monthly fees charged to the credit card used to order the kit.

Cancellation

Buyers had to cancel the service within 14 days or the additional fees would be charged.

Status

As of January 2010, the website googlepayday.com was an inactive, or 'parked,' domain registered under a nonexistent Newport Beach, California, address and phone number.
