Different credit cards before payout?

    Was anyone else aware that Clickbank makes you have payments from multiple credit cards before they will pay you? Apparently paypal purchases don't count. My account has a couple hundred dollars that I am rightfully owed but apparently I need to wait until some more clients pay with their credit cards! Kind of sucks, I wish they would send me the check it isn't like it matters to the vendors where the payment is coming from. Anyone want to buy some stuff from me? :) Haha only kidding.

    I was not aware of that, due I supposed to the fact that I'm always an affiliate, not a vendor. Would you elaborate on this? I don't think a lot of people know about this.

    I am an affiliate. I mean as an affiliate you have to have gotten the people who bought the product you promoted to pay with different credit cards. I think they told me it was 5 different credit cards. So basically, you have to promote an offer on clickbank to 5 different people and get them all to pay with separate cards.

    Yes, this is how it works, and it is to eliminate fraud and stop people from using their affiliate accounts to only buy stuff for themselves. You are not "rightly owed" the money until you meet their basic payout terms, which has long included this requirement. Next time go with a different network and be sure to read their terms of service before you start working with them, if you find this to be a problem.

    Well thanks for informing me, I was aware of the reasoning though and I will be promoting some more products in order to meet the guideline. However, I didn't buy products with my own account, they were promoted which is why I feel like I am owed the money, as I'm sure anyone would. I have plenty of time to promote some more clickbank products so it isn't a big deal, you might have taken my post kind if seriously. I like clickbank, I don't take anything against them for this although I do think they could do a better job with the types of products they approve from vendors. Some of them aren't the type of quality that affiliates deserve. I probaby should tak a few more moments carefully reading over their terms of service before I go complaining about things huh? Well like I said, I hold nothing against the company and I actually think it's a pretty good policy for the reason it is there.

    most of people buy my product with a credit card, so you might want to try and promote it :)
