Clickbank Fees

[ZekeLL]

Clickbank setup fee is $49.95 for vendors. Which I didn't get is whether that is per website or total.

Lets say I want to promote www.ebook1.com and www.ebook2.com through their affiliate network. Do I need to pay $49.95 for each domain I want to promote or I can promote 2 domains with one account?

I found this at PayDotCom.com:

ClickBank� - Not Free to use (Vendors)

$49.95 Activation Fee for EACH account. A new account is needed to sell separate products with the Affiliate Hop Link System.
$1 + 7.5% per Transaction
Money Held For to 2-4 Weeks and additional money held in reserve.

What does it mean?

Each clickbank account provides only ONE hoplink for ONE of your websites. So, yes, if you have 2 ebooks, you need 2 clickbank accounts, ie pay $49.95 each. That is their setup fees and even if your product don't get approved you'll not get a refund.

OK, so according with my research, if you have www.book1.com and www.book2.com you need to create www.books.com and from there link to www.book1.com and www.book2.com. So, I basically see 2 options:

A) Make your customers go to www.book.com and find the book they are looking for and click on it, which makes the process annoying and will decrease conversions a lot. Is this how it works?

B) Pay $50 for each ebook you sell, which seems like a lot of money.

If you have 2 websites, and sell 2 products, how do you do it? Option A or B? Or maybe some other way... Please, if you have more than 1 website and sell through Clickbank, let mw know what is the best way to do it.

Thank you so much!

You can't do option A. It's against clickbank's rules.. Basically you need 2 accounts, pay $49.95 each.

Each book you sell you need to track it, and for each tracking hop link, it's a unique account.

If you can't afford to pay for 2 accounts, try out with one first,.. just sell ONE book...
