June 26th, 2008
Service provides more convenience when paying for online subscriptions
BROOMFIELD, Colo. – June 24, 2008 – ClickBank, a privately held online retailer for buyers and sellers of digitally delivered products and services, today announced it is offering PayPal for recurring billing – yet another strategic option for product publishers seeking to increase business and meet customer needs.
ClickBank is using PayPal’s recurring billing solution to give product publishers an easy way to sell subscription-based content and services, such as online newsletters or annual software licenses. It has proven to be very popular with customers, growing rapidly each month since its introduction.
“Currently, nearly 20 percent of ClickBank’s total business transactions are conducted using PayPal,” said Bob King, ClickBank CEO. “Allowing customers to use PayPal for recurring billing will further fuel demand for our popular subscription-based products and services and, by providing a new payment option, enhance the ClickBank experience for publishers, affiliates and customers.”
“We are excited to have ClickBank on board using PayPal,” said Jim Hunt, director of merchant relations at PayPal. “Using our recurring billing functionality gives customers security and convenience when shopping online.”

can you use paypal to pay for clickbank?
YJ,
I’m not sure what you mean by “pay for ClickBank.” Customers can use it to pay for ClickBank products via the ClickBank order form, yes. Is that what you meant?
I am a American living in the Philippines and it is very difficult to cash large checks in US Dollars here. I have a business account in PayPal so I would like all payments from Click Bank to be sent there.

As the ClickBank’s Publishers, can we accept payment through PayPal instead of PayCheck?
Sorry, we can’t currently pay out clients via PayPal for a variety of reasons.
Will Paypal be available again? Or will you implement other payment gateways other than checks?

Slim,
We’ve never offered PayPal as a payout method for vendors and affiliates, only as a payment method for customers. Currently we don’t have add plans to add it. In addition to checks, we have wire transfers available in some cases, and once you’ve received two paper checks, you may be able to qualify for direct deposit, depending on your location. More information on direct deposit is available here:

PAYPAL does not recognize Pakistan in their list of countries. So the payments, if still made through Paypal, I do not mind.
