Anyone ever buy Bans using their own Aff Link?

Just wondering if you had any problems or if you foresee any problems?

Thanks

 

I have heard you can buy products with your affiliate link, but you shouldn't make an account just to use that, that will result in banning.

 

I Think That Would Cancel Out Your Discount, Have A Friend By It For You.

 

no.. nothing wroing with it at all..

CB will not cancell your account, you can buy as much as you want using your own aff link..

do a search, been covered

 

I bought it myself with my affiliate link. damn good product too

 

Many affiliates do like this to get a concession on the product price!

 

You will not get banned.
I have a self-imposed rule: If I reach a site myself - I use my aff link to buy. If I was referred by another affiliate - I do not rob him of his commission. Seems unfair to do that.
As a vendor, I have no problem with people buying through their affiliate link, as long as they don't rob my affiliates from their rightful commission.

 

From the FAQ:

25. Can I purchase products through my own hoplink?
The short answer is yes, but ClickBank does not condone affiliates using their accounts for this sole purpose. As stated in our Accounting Policy, "ClickBank accounts cannot be used for the sole purpose of collecting rebates or otherwise extending credit to yourself or others." That is, affiliates should not be using their own hoplinks to purchase products for themselves and then collect a "rebate" check from ClickBank.

Unless an account contains sales from made with 5 or more different credit card numbers, including at least one Visa card, and one MasterCard, our system will not generate a check for that account (even if the balance has met or exceeded the payment preference). PayPal and eCheck purchases do not count toward the minimum.
