Online Retail Giant ClickBank Expands Services to International Markets
October 27th, 2009
BROOMFIELD, Colo. – (Oct. 27, 2009) – Serving more than 114 countries on 6 continents, ClickBank announced today that the company has taken great strides toward globalization of its platform in a continued effort to expand services offered to the company’s international markets.
ClickBank officials say they’ve taken a phased approach to this endeavor, starting with the translation of the order form and all customer related material such as receipt emails and customer service content into German, Spanish and French. Having completed that phase last year, the company moved onto phase two—translation of the entire ClickBank site outside the login into the same three languages. Work on this phase has just been finished and the new pages are live as of today.
“More than one third of the 26,000 transactions ClickBank processes each day are made from outside the U.S.,” said Dush Ramachandran, ClickBank vice president of sales, marketing and business development. “It is important that we continue to cater to international markets. The globalization of our platform is just one of the many benefits we offer our global vendors and affiliates.”
In addition to offering content in multiple languages, ClickBank has made significant improvements to its payment processing and accepts 13 international currencies including the Euro, the British Pound, and the Swedish and Danish Kroner

Thanks for expanding the non-English parts of Clickbank! Has the policy about customer-facing ads changed yet? (Previously, only English has been allowed.)
John,
We currently still only allow English ads in the HopAd system, but this is something we are considering changing for the future. If this changes, we’ll be sure to post News and blog updates.

Good job Clickbank. This should open up the flood gates for you guys.
Beau, would it be possible to translate the http://www.clickbank.com/info/jmap.htm file that affiliates use in order to get their affiliate link? And also fix the broken link on it? (Currently the file points to http://www.clickbank.com/hoplink_faq.html#hoplink_question_3 which is broken.)
Hi John,
Thanks for the good catch on the broken link. It should be fixed soon, but in the meantime, that should link here: http://www.clickbank.com/help/affiliate-help/affiliate-basics/all-about-hoplinks/#TID
We’re working on translating the JMAP window, and should have that translated soon.
Thanks,
Beau
IT’s great that your going global. The bigger the market place the greater the potentil sales. About time too.
good job
Are you planning on translating into Portuguese? I routinely, and frequently deal with Portuguese speakers in Portugal, Brazil, Angola, Cape Verde, Seychelles, and Goa, as well as the Spanish speakers.
Thanks.
How can we locate the translated clickbank products? Please, urgent!
Or put another way, How can we perform searches for international products in a certain niche on clickbank?
Thanks!
Olatunde,
To find international products, you can use the “Advanced Search” link next to the search box. Just enter the keyword or category you want to target, then check the box of the language you want to promote down lower. It’ll return a list of vendors who have products in that category and language. Hope that helps!
