The most common thing that happens to any of the ClickBank affiliate is difficulty getting the payment. Although you have reached the minimum payout, but you are not paid. I tell you why, there is a big secret behind this, which most of the affiliates know about but rarely take care of that. To get paid you have to fulfill these two criteria: * Sales made with 5 or more different credit card numbers; and, * Sales made with two different payment methods (either Visa, MasterCard, or PayPal). Note: PayPal purchases do not count toward the minimum 5 different credit card numbers. Now, as you have made the sales, reached the minimum payout, but didn't get the payment. The biggest mistakes affiliate do in the beginning is to choose high price products to get more commission. But, they should know that people are not easily going to buy their products as they have become more cautious because of so many scams going over the internet. So, "it is always better to initially choose the products with low price i.e. ranging between $3 to $7" This way you have the high probability to get more customers, because people can give a try to low cost products rather than taking risk on an expensive one. Hope this is somewhat going to help them who wish to be a ClickBank Affiliate. Thanks
I really don't think getting paid is that much of a problem. People want to know how to promote. If you promote good, you will meet the requirements petty soon, no mater how much the products you are promoting really cost.
The "customer distribution requirement" is very easy to get round. All you have to do is set your initial payment threshold to $10 and get a tiny handful of friends/relatives to buy a $3/$4 product which pays a high commission (that you then give them back privately) using different credit-cards. And you only have to do it once.
I don't understand why everyone makes such a big deal about this. Sure it can be frustrating if everyone is paying with paypal, but just use that frustration to channel energy into getting more sales.
So this is the big "secret"? Get outta here. You haven't a clue about pricing and how it affects sales. And if you can't get enough sales to meet the distribution requirement you should forget about affiliate marketing.
^........this........ I agree, if you can't meet the minimum then what's the point in trying to game the system. This isn't a secret it's rather a rule/requirement. Most affiliate marketers don't make it in this industry due to 101 reasons, but meeting the minimum or getting that first check is not what's stopping them... BTW if you're desperate, honest, and can google their phone number, simply call them up and explain your situation (i.e. 20 paypal purchases) they will indeed release the funds. N.
What exactly is the distribution figure? Besides, Are you required this distribution for only the 1st check or all your payments thenafter?
That's explained in post #1 above. That's explained in post #4 above. (Strange questions from someone advertising "Clickbank Cash" in his signature!)
