ClickBank offers XACH (International direct deposit) payments to the countries offered by our bank, Wells Fargo. We work in close contact with them to send payments via this method to as many countries as they offer, and hope to continue to add more countries as they become available. Unfortunately we’re not currently able to send direct deposit payments to Finland.

While XACH is a different method than a wire transfer, in some cases we are able to make other payment arrangements. If you are unable to receive XACH at this time please email paychecks@clickbank.com and ask that we review your account.

Trend charting sounds like an exciting feature. Kind of like stock market charts. Fear drives the market down and good news drives the market up. Riding a trend is a key to success.

CB Stats is great. They allow for multiple accounts which is priceless.
The pin protection is also pretty nice since I often give the iPhone to my friends to play with and I don’t want them peaking into my clickbank reports …

Hi,
I’m very happy to know that ClickBank’s CEO has a global vision. However the way Clickbank operates and treats its affiliate is way too American oriented. Think for European affiliates, there are thoudsands of them out there and Europe is a massive entity, however the balance is still in only US dollars and we have to receive checks.

I have received 2 checks so far and none of them are accepted at my bank. I’m from Finland so I cannot receive direct wire transfer either (Clickbank does not support direct wire to Finland yet). This is a big loss. Now I don’t know what to do with the incoming Clickbanks checks as no bank accepts them. They said that it’s from a private company, they can only cash in checks from banks.

Please Bob, consider the situation of European affiliates and at least open the wire transfer service to more European countries.

Thanks and regards,
Jannie from Finland

Comment on Coming Soon: Changes to ClickBank Order Form by Adrian

Well, in later posts and comments (from other posts as well) Beau mentioned that the new design out-performed the old all-blue (miss that) design. But in my case it simply reduced my conversion rate by 50%. I am saying this because I experienced a huge drop in sales during the last week of June. The sales copy, graphics, bonuses and everything else was the same as it was before, only one thing changed - the Clickbank Order page. I am not yet complaining as I would like to wait for another 15 days or so, do more testing and observe the trend. May be I should implement some tips suggested in this blog.

Nonetheless, the blue theme was at least visually much soothing.

By the way, I am a Clickbank vendor (and an affiliate).

Comment on Five Pitch Page Mistakes ClickBank Vendors Should Avoid by Dee

Dee — Wed, 01 Jul 2009 02:48:23 +0000

Wow! I am a vendor, and I hear you affiliates LOUD AND CLEAR! I didn’t take that into consideration when creating my first info product on Clickbank. But it makes absolute sense as to why most would not promote a product with “affiliate signup” link located on the sales page. Makes good sense also with exit pop-up’s ect.

I am going to change my site’s landing page and remove the blatant affiliate link and exit pop up right now! Thank’s for sharing this and bringing more awareness Matt!

Patti,

Vendors are under no obligation to use a default order button. They can choose any button they wish to use, as long as it goes to the order page.

I just went to the site you mentioned (above) and saw TWO order links. Both of them point to the correct order form.

Any button can serve the same purpose, or you can even use a html hyperlink to direct the visitor to the correct CB order page.

If your own affiliate link does not show at the bottom of the page then you may have someone else’s cookie on your PC.

Simply empty your cache (Temporary Internet Files) and reload the page with your own affiliate link. This should then show your link at the bottom of the order page.

P.S. I do not like the new color scheme. Hasnt anyone ever looked up the Psychology of Marketing? Colors do play an important role in having someone buy. The current color combination does not do that. Also remember that not everybody has the latest computer with 5 million colors on it. Pastel colors are prefered. The old order form worked perfectly and looked good.
