Sending a customer directly to clickbank paymnet page

    Hey.
    I have a landing page for a clickbank product.
    When a customer clicks "order now" on my landing page I want him to be sent directly to the clickbank payment page and not to my original ClickBank product landing page (XXXX.XXXX.hop.clickbank.net).
    How can I do this ? do I just access that page from my affiliate link and copy that URL adress or is there another way ?
    Thanks.

    I wouldn't recommend doing this because you don't set a cookie on the users browser, i.e you don't get a sale if he comes back to buy later.
    A bigger problem is that if the user you're sending to pay page has already a cookie set on his browser from another affiliate, the other affiliate will get the sale, even though you're sending the user to the pay page.

    To answer your question, you can send the user to the pay page the following way:

    http://ItemNumber.affiliatename_productname.pay.clickbank.net

    example:

    http://1.johndoe_water4gas.pay.clickbank.net

    Should not be a problem doing this. If they come back later, they will come back to your sales page. Most likely they are not going to bookmark a checkout page, because it contains temporary information.

    true, however the bigger problem is if the user has picked up a cookie from another affiliate, you're not gonna overwrite the previous cookie, i.e you're gonna refer a visitor to buy the product and not get any commission.

    Try this:

    1st Go to http://johndoe.water4gas.hop.clickbank.net
    This way you get johndoe cookied as an affiliate

    2nd Go to http://2.robert_water4gas.pay.clickbank.net
    After your browser is cookied with johndoe, you visit a directlink for the pay page of the product, from the affiliate ID robert

    you will see that johndoe will be credited for as the affiliate when visiting the second link, even though robert is the last one to refer the visitor to the pay page.
