anyway for me to sell a product on clickbank without my parents knowing?

I'm 16, and about to start selling a dating product on clickbank. When I start getting checks in the mail, my parents are going to want to see where all this money came from. First, is the clickbank check going to say anything about the product i sell? and second, does anyone have any ideas on what i can tell them when they ask(they'll probably make me show them)?

 

Clickbank won't reveal what are you selling. They will send the check only to you. You can show the check to your parents. No problem!!!

 

You should always be honest with your parents. I'm sure they love you more than life itself.

 

I agree with marcromero! You should be honest with your parents and I also think they will start looking different at you when they realize you are already making money on your own!

 

I agree with the above tell your parents they will be proud of you go for it

 

Yea bro! I think you are over thinking this. You are not selling drug and you are not doing anything illegal.. it's a legit job and you are earning from your work instead of $6 an hour at MacD. Reasonable parents would totally understand this.

 

It's not the fact that I'm selling online that's the issue, it's the fact that I am selling a dating product that I made. And yeah, my parents are not reasonable people. If my dad helps me file taxes, will it be necessary to show him exactly what I am selling?

 

not really, as long as you provide what you have made, you shouldnt have to worry about reporting what your selling to the IRS.

your good man.

and props to you getting on this at 16!
Your parents should be proud of you!!

 

thanks guys...appreciate all the responses

 

As long as what you're selling is legit, why would you want to hide it from your parents? Unless if you're selling your sex tape lol.

 

It's always best to be honest with you parents and they will respect you for doing so.

 

You can sell it using a different affiliate site and get paid to paypal instead of checks.

 

You should tell your parents that you are doing affiliate marketing wrather than selling a product. Just tell them all you do is take a link and write an essay about a product and put 1&2 together. Best of luck!

 

There should be no reason to hide it from your parents, if you can make money from it, I don't think they'll mind

 

haha classic man, your answer has been the most helpful so far, thanks!

 

I think the cheques will just be generic i.e. from Clickbank and whatever name you gave your product, you can always explain its info in the form of an eBook you are selling

 

Be honest with your parents. If its something honest and legal you are selling, then i'm sure that they will be proud of you for trying to make a living from such a young age.

 

If you're serious, register a company and get a PO box, though you'll have to work with an adult or do everything online (I did it at 17, nobody noticed or cared, even got the IRS EIN number and everything; in Florida, you can file everything online)...

 

you're still young. dont be shy to tell your parents what you're doing online. try explaining them. they will understand.

 

Most people here would be worried about making the actual sales and you are worried about your money lolz.
