I just read the Clickbank FAQ and I found this piece particular interesting. Does this mean that untill I have five sales (as an affiliate) from five different credit cards, I won't recieve any payment? And paypal purchases doesn not count.. It's going to take a long time to recieve the first check in other words.. Damn!
Yep, you read it right. The good thing is it wont take as long as you think It can be a balancing act sometimes if you've blown your wad on ppc tho. Good luck! P.S. - I've even heard rumors of people buying a cheap product with their own hoplink to get their check released
I'll just have to make sure people buying through my hoplinks use their creditcards then, and not paypal. But, this 5 different credit cards to release the check... Is this a onetime thing, or does this apply to every check release?
it replies to every check release. But honestly, 14 days to pull that off is plenty, unless you're hardly selling anything!
Yeah that was a bit of a shock to me too when I first joined clickbank...I don't really use them now anyway!
Well, for the time being I'm not promoting anything but Build A Niche Store, but I have no rush to get any payments from Clickbank either. I plan to take a deeper look on clickbank products to promote in a couple of weeks when I have more time.. Anyway, I'm going to set the payment preferences high so I can "save" the the 5 required credit cards
Does this also mean PayPal doesn't count as a Visa/MasterCard? Even if there is such a card behind the PayPal account?
Clickbank pay via Check or transfer, transfer is after you have had 2 paper checks sent, plus you pass all criteria, i.e in the countries they allow and threshold etc
