Other payment agencies

ClickBank is another trusted party for handling transactions between sellers and buyers. They differ in that sellers list their products with ClickBank who in turn provide them with a URL link that is used by buyers.

ClickBank process and collect the buyer payments, allocate any commissions that might be payable to affiliates, and remit the balance to the sellers. Thousands of products are listed with ClickBank, so you will encounter them often.

You don't need to join them, they are purely an intermediary agent providing a service to sellers. The main point in mentioning them is so you will be aware that as a buyer you can use them with confidence.

You need to appreciate that ClickBank do not provide any warranties concerning the products you purchase via their service. That's not their role.

If you are planning to develop or market your own distinct products, you will almost certainly need a ClickBank identity code at some point. These take just a few moments to obtain, and you can do that at this link if you like. Keep your identity code short and memorable.
