Hi guys this is my first post, I have a simple question

Seen as well Google seems to not like payday sites it seems. If i were to add google adwords etc on it is it asking for a instant ban of the site in question?

Has anyone ever tried to add adwords to their payday / loans sites?

PS,
I am Canadian and a gamer hence the username. I work with Canadian financial sites as my main source of revenue...

O I forgot to add something the ad sites I use and or am planning on using are Google Adsense, Adsupply, Content.Ad, and RevContent.

Google classified to them as predatory lending and your ad won't even get approved.

In May (2016), Google announced that ads promoting payday loans that require repayment within 60 days and loans with interest rates above 35 percent would no longer be accepted or displayed starting July 13.

[..]

The policy includes the following reasons for ad disapproval:

Payday loans: "Personal loans which require repayment in full in 60 days or less from the date the loan is issued (we refer to these as ‘Short-term personal loans’). This policy applies to advertisers who offer loans directly, lead generators, and those who connect consumers with third-party lenders."

High interest loans: "In the United States, we do not allow ads for personal loans where the Annual Percentage Rate (APR) is 36% or higher. Advertisers for personal loans in the United States must display their maximum APR, calculated consistently with the Truth in Lending Act (TILA)."

New ads for payday and high-interest loans are no longer being accepted, and Google will be removing existing ads from the system over the next several weeks. That process will take some time, as it’s likely Google will have to manually check the loan terms listed on advertiser websites before deciding whether to disapprove ads.

Here is the offical blogpost about to from May 11, 2016: An update to our AdWords policy on lending products

Edit: Wait, are you asking if you can have Google Adsense on your website? Or running Google Adwords to get traffic from search through PPC to your payday loan website?

I wanted some additional income on my payday sites as i have the traffic but the leads pay so low.

If the leads pay too low, I wonder if it would worth it to work personally with a payday loan store and ask for a higher price per lead or perhaps sell the leads to multiple stores instead of just one. Plenty of lead generation sites sell non-exclusive leads to three businesses, which also benefits the prospects who get the benefit of multiple competing offers. Just a thought. Best of luck with your sites man.
