HELP! Please buy this at $3 and help me make my first Clickbank Paycheck
by Heidrun Peters Affiliate Marketer
You might know what the problem is with Clickbank - or rather the problems!
Even if you made a sale that does not mean you get paid.
Reasons:
1 - The first reason (easily solved) is that you need to meet a payment threshold before you get paid. By default ClickBank sets this at $100. So what you can do is lower it if you wish, you can go as low as $10.
I have done this.
2 - But it's the second reason that is the BIG one.
Before getting paid you need to need to meet the Customer Distribution Requirement.
You can read the full detail in ClickBank's Accounting Policy but here is the essential bit:
In compliance with US law, ClickBank will withhold payment of any account balance until the following criteria is met:
* Sales made with 5 or more different credit card numbers and
* Sales made with two different payment methods (either Visa, MasterCard, or PayPal)
What this means is - at the very best - you are going to NEED FIVE SALES BEFORE YOU GET PAID.
I have managed to make those 5 sales.
3 - BUT - let's speak about 'dormant' accounts.
Accounts with a positive balance but no earnings for an extended period of time are considered dormant.
Dormant accounts are subject to a charge of $1 per pay period after 90 days of inactivity, $5 per pay period after 180 days of inactivity, and $50 per pay period after 365 days of inactivity.
This is what happened to me - repeatedly!
I earned a commission, then waited and waited for more sales so that I could get hold of my earnings.
Meanwhile after 3 months of no sales deductions began chipping away at my account. Back to zero - each time!
THE SOLUTION
(and that's where I ask for your help):
Obviously if I could make some quick easy sales of something, anything - then I will be able to meet the Customer Distribution Requirement, become
eligible to receive my first check and soon get the 2 checks allowing me to move to direct debit - which then means weekly payment and no more waiting for the postman to deliver my check.
So my problem would be solved if I could offer customers an affiliate product which is so highly desirable and attractive that it will be a no-brainer for them to purchase.
- It's a product aimed at ClickBank newbies
- It solves their biggest problem
- It's incredibly cheap
- It's a Silver Package which costs just 3 (THREE) dollars ! That is the minimum sale price for a ClickBank product.
My commission will be trivial, it's 75% of $3 which works out after deductions at $1.35 but that's not the point. I will just have made another ClickBank sale which is rapidly enabling me to meet the Customer Distribution Requirement, maybe allowing the release of funds from other sales waiting in my ClickBank account, and
providing the springboard to a successful ClickBank career.

PS: How would you like to do the same ?
How would you like an affiliate link which inserts your ClickBank id in this book (a process known as rebranding) and gets you quick and easy commissions.
Well that is just part of the package Harvey Segal is offering.
When you purchase it for $3 you will receive a Silver Link that will makes this happen. All you do is give out that link.
And this might help YOU solve YOUR Clickbank problems, too!
We all win.
PPS. Once I have reached my goal I will start helping you by promoting YOUR link!

  Grey Nomad Working OnlineOne small (but important) point that also impacts on meeting the CDR. "Note: PayPal purchases do not count toward the minimum 5 different credit card numbers." I have more than 5 sales but most have been paid using PayPal. They do not count towards the 5 different CC payments. I have been looking for a way to encourage those extra credit card payments. This product just might help to get my first check which is way over the threshold. Thanks! Jan 31st 2012 15:22 |

ConsultantI have been in Clickbank for years, but never made one sale! My fault though, I have just not promoted the products. I think I like MLM, better than Affiliate marketing. I will purchase your product for you, and Neville thanks for letting us know about needing CC purchases. When and If I decide to pursue clickbank as a income resource I have the information I need!

Grey Nomad Working OnlineThe five different credit card numbers requirement is, I believe, a method to help prevent hit and run affiliates from buying products with their hop links and not make sales from other buyers. This could end up being a great money spinner for Clickbank with many sales being made but affiliates giving up when they do not reach the CDR. Then their account becomes dormant and Clickbank withdraws that back. Jan 31st 2012 21:31 |

Publisher | Leadership Insights NewsletterWith all the products on ClickBank you should not have any trouble meeting their requirements, what kind of marketing are you doing? Feb 3rd 2012 15:08 |

Grey Nomad Working OnlineYes, Robert there are thousands of products in the Clickbank marketplace. But just because it is available to sell doesn't mean that it is a product that I would want to associate with and promote. As has been mentioned in other places, it is perhaps best if the promoter actually uses the product and therefore knows what they are selling. There are lots of products in Clickbank that not suitable for my niches, or there are products of dubious value that I would not want to be linked to. Feb 3rd 2012 17:55 |
