More On Clickbank| Article #322 : THE COMPLETE CLICKBANK GUIDE – PART 8

In this installment of our Clickbank guide, we’re going to actually sign up with Clickbank and start working as either an affiliate or a vendor. There are differences between the two, but there are also a lot of similarities, such as how you get paid.

If you go to the Clickbank website, located at:

https://www.clickbank.com/index.html

You will notice at the top right hand corner a link that says sign up. Simply click on that link to get yourself started.

You will be taken to the Clickbank sign up form. As you can see, there is a lot there to fill out, so let’s go through it one thing at a time as it is very important that you do this correctly.

The first thing they ask is where they should send your checks to and who to make them payable to. Enter your full legal name here. The reason is because you will have to bring this check to your bank to be cashed. Clickbank does not have direct deposit.

After that, Clickbank asks you to enter where you live, including street address, city and state. If you are outside of the US, there are some countries that are not allowed to sign up with Clickbank. You’ll have to check with Clickbank to see if your country is on the restricted list.

The next thing they will ask you is how they can contact you. This is where you will fill in your name, email address, phone number and website, if you have one. Make sure that this info is correct, especially the email address as this is how you will have to verify your account.

After all that, you have to select a nickname for your Clickbank account. This has to be between 5 and 10 characters and can be letters and numbers. If the nickname you choose is already taken, Clickbank will inform you of this after you click on the submit button at the bottom of the page and then you will have to choose a new one.

Please read the terms and conditions on the page before actually submitting the information. They are very clear.

The Clickbank sign up process is not very complicated. They don’t ask for a lot of information considering that you are using them as a payment processor. If you were going through this procedure with your credit card company, you would have to fill out 3 times as much info including how much money you are currently earning. Banks just don’t hand out merchant accounts like chocolates. So considering all, Clickbank makes it relatively easy to get payment processing for your site. And their rates are certainly comparable with most merchant accounts considering how much work they do for you.

In our next installment on Clickbank, we’re going to get ourselves up and running for either using Clickbank as an affiliate network or for our own vendor account.

See you then.
