Under the "Financials" section you will need to specify a bank account. You can not start selling courses until your bank account has been verified. Within a day or two Google will make a deposit of a few cents to your account. Within two weeks of setting up the account the amount deposited must be confirmed with Google. Don't forget to save this profile after editing it.

You will need to obtain a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificate for your web site so that Google will transmit to your site encrypted. This is to protect you and your customers to ensure your transactions cannot be intercepted and decoded. Your ISP or web designer should be able to help you with this.
