ClickBank vs 2CO vs Plimus

    I currently reside in a country where PayPal is not available! So, I have to be using a 3rd party processor to receive payments which also accepts PayPal! I have never tried any, so I would like advice on which is the best!

    The money I get is from either my eBooks, or from some SEO services I perform for my clients!


    I visited ClickBank, 2CO and Plimus websites. I really liked 2CO since they are now offering a 2CO Debit Card so that you can access your 2CO balance anytime from any atm! But when googling about 2CO, I read some bad experiences on 2CO, but looking at the date of these complaints, I see it was on 2005/2006. I think 2CO might have improved their service since then.

    As with ClickBank, I like their affiliate strategy but I think they will not be accepting payments for my SEO services and they don't offer a debit card like 2CO.

    As with Plimus, I didn't read any comments about it yet.


    I don't really care about the transaction fees! Its the quality and ease of service is what I am looking for.

    I would love to read any professional advice on which service I should register for.

    You get the same Debit Card with Plimus if you opt for it. The Debit Card is issued by Payoneer.com. So far am happy with Plimus.com. They are pretty much founded as the 3rd party payment processors for software.

    Yes transness, plimus does accept PayPal payments!
    Still waiting for a reply to which is the best processor! I would really love to get a reply from someone who tried both 2co and plimus to know which is better :)

    I don't think there is one best processor because if there is, the rest would have closed down long ago for lack of customers. In this world, there is no clear cut black or white. In the end, whichever means your needs should be the one you use.

    For me, I use Plimus because I mainly sell software online and they meet my needs in that respect. They came highly recommended amongst software developers.

    In the end, you need to know what you are selling and thus select one which would meet your requirements. I believe that all of them are as capable as each other, otherwise they would no longer be around today.

    i will really suggest you to go for plimus.com because they are free to join.. clickbank and 2co are not free....

    so plimus is the best option if your country is not listed on paypal....

    Sounds good. But 2CO requires you to have an ecommerce site. I hope this is not the case with plimus.

    Plimus require you to have a website otherwise how are you going to promote your stuff and sell them ? Signing up a domain name is cheap these days. If you are serious about your business, it should not really a big issue spending a few dollars more a year to get a domain name and a website.

    I tried them all, plimus is the best with high service range and user friendly.

    I am using 2Com, moneybooker, alertpay . All of them are fine with me. I have registered with Pilimus but thought it was so complicated. Have to check again.

    Using 2CO for over 2 years. Never had a problem. Have used Plimus too. Definitely good and at par with 2CO.
