Hi Brook,



I believe I answered your question via e-mail earlier today--as Clickbank is a payment processor of their own, you would have to skip on using PayPal for your transactions if you wanted to use Clickbank for their affiliate program.



If you want to stay with PayPal and still have an affiliate program, you may wish to consider the one that we offer ourselves, which you can learn about on our help page here:

BTW, although you would need to only use ClickBank alone as your sole payment processor for E-junkie in order to use ClickBank's affiliate system (since any checkouts not going through ClickBank would not credit a referring ClickBank affiliate for those sales), ClickBank itself does support a PayPal payment option on their own checkout screen. You would need to inquire with ClickBank support to see if there's any way to make that the only payment method available in your ClickBank checkouts.



Also, in case you hadn't noticed, we do have our own, built-in affiliate system which works with any of the payment processors we support (except TrialPay):

Is it just me, or is it impossible to get Clickbank products approved to sell through E-Junkie buttons? My ebook is on an Ejunkie server with a link to it on my Thank You page after Clickbank has processed the payment. However, I cannot get these products/my site approved on Clickbank because they have to go through the whole purchasing process via my E-junkies button and download links to my product before approving them, but E-Junkies will not allow access to my products unless Clickbank has approved them. Both companies seem to be working each other's progress, which is ultimately stopping me from getting the process going. Can anyone make some suggestions regarding this?

You cannot use E-junkie to get your product approved with ClickBank, you will have to set your product up on your own website and provide them with a temporary thank you/download page.



Once ClickBank has approved your product you can set E-junkie up to deliver that product to your actual buyers.

Thank you, I'll try that.

If you just want to offer buyers a choice of paying through ClickBank or PayPal, I think ClickBank itself supports a PayPal payment option during checkouts on their site, so you could just integrate E-junkie with ClickBank and let buyers choose PayPal during their ClickBank checkout.



If you decided against that and wanted separate E-junkie Buy Now buttons for ClickBank and PayPal on your site, you would need to make sure there's NO WAY buyers could ever find their way to page with the PayPal button if they'd arrived at your site via a ClickBank affiliate, since those affiliates can only earn commission when the buyer checks out through ClickBank.

2) Should I create two separate products in e-junkie or can I use the same one?



Thanks!!!

I'm curious about this too...

You can sell the same product with both ClickBank and PayPal. On your regular sales page, you would paste the Buy Now button for PayPal (or an Add to Cart button) that we provide for that product. On your ClickBank sales page (i.e., the landing page that your ClickBank affiliate links redirect to), you would paste the Buy Now button for ClickBank we provide for that product.



Make sure your ClickBank sales page has NO links to other pages on your site that could lead to your regular sales page -- buyers arriving at your ClickBank landing page should not be able to find their way to any other page where they could purchase without using ClickBank.
