    Which is better: Clickbank or 2CO?

    For an ebook, Clickbank is probably the best choice, since it can then be sold by all the thousands of Clickbank affiliates. (Just make sure you pay a high commision to affiliates)

    I agree that Clickbank is the place to sell your ebook.

    2checkout is a bit weird. It's not actually a merchant account at all. I dunno if people have success with them but they've got some weird rules like they aren't your CC processor but a supplier of your goods or something weird.

    We gave up using them and returned to paypal in the end. But this was for solid products. I've not experience of them, but I'd suggest clickbank of those too - especially as your book will then be push out onto their affiliate network.

    My experience with 2CO for digital products is a little "iffy" - their checking of credit cards was a little too tardy and I ended up with chargebacks for products sold and delivered to folks using stolen ccs. I think this is being improved - but I'd hesitate to enthuse :O

    I think clickbank has a "bank of affiliates" waiting to sell your product for you - and that's going to give you a good jump start.

    Best wishes

    I have good experience with 2CO for ebooks (those kind that are less prone to fraud, though, no money making and similar stuff), and heard on the other side bad stories about Clickbank from time to time.

    However, I would also recommend Clickbank: if for nothing else, go with them for the affiliate system behind that. 2CO is just payment processor, Clickbank is more like a money-making machine.

    I have been using ClickBank for years and had really good luck with them. I sell products through them as well as do some affiliate promotion of my own. Some other items I sell through PayPal primarily but use ClickBank as a credit card processor for people in a non-PayPal countries. I've never had a problem with their check delivery and it is easy to handle refunds etc.

    I've used 2checkout.com for years and yes, their fraud checks have caused me to give products away to people that had their payment cancelled by 2CO. I switched to PayPal a few months ago and I recently started using Clickbank and I am happy I did. I still use 2CO every once in awhile.

    Clickbank works best in my opinion. From an affiliate perspective I would encourage you to use Clickbank.
