Online Retail Giant ClickBank Expands Services to International Markets

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

It is Great to See Results

Posted by: Monty Sooter, CTO

We continue to make enhancements to the ClickBank applications and it is great to see the results. Overall sales continue to grow at a rapid pace. Sales for ClickBank Recurring Billing products in July were 57 percent higher than any previous month. Sales for Spanish products in July were 33 percent higher than any previous month. Recurring billing products has been in place for about a year and Spanish products have been available for about 6 months.

Improved performance in a business is always a nice achievement. When you can tie improved performance back to planned projects you develop confidence in your management of the business. As a result, we will continue to listen to our clients and research our industry to set our enhancement priorities. We will also go as fast as we can to implement the new enhancements — just not so fast that we cause disruption to the business.

We understand our clients want to get their money as soon as they can. As Michael wrote last week in “Weekly Payments, Anyone?” we plan to release weekly direct deposit payments in the next few weeks. Based on the number of sign ups for our recently released direct deposit capability we also expect good results from weekly direct deposits.

Also, we have heard that you want us to open additional markets to sell your products. The next phase of Platform Globalization will be released later in the fall and will expand markets for current products and provide markets for new products.

We believe we are getting better at hearing and understanding our clients’ needs. We have many projects planned and will continue to implement changes that drive results for all of us.
