Great news for publishers of yahoo publisher network (YPN). They can now get their publisher commissions via direct deposit.

After listening to our publishers, we are very excited to announce that we have added Direct Deposit as a new method to receive your Yahoo! Publisher Network earnings. With this fast and easy payment option, you can avoid the hassle of depositing paper checks at your bank.

YPN now has 3 payment options. One is the usual check, another is balance transfer which is available to publishers who also search marketing advertisers, and last is direct deposit. No more need to cash in those paper checks, and it is safe too (from mail robbers).
