Overview
The ClickBank Affiliate Marketplace is a space where ClickBank Sellers provide information about the products they offer. Affiliates can search the marketplace to find offers they’re interested in promoting—including their available promotional materials and sales statistics.
The ClickBank Marketplace simplifies the process of finding products to promote. Using the specialized search function, affiliates can browse products by category and use the filter tool to finetune search results by language, category, offer type, and more.
When an affiliate finds a product they want to promote, the affiliate generates a HopLink (also known as a referral tracking link) that combines the affiliate’s account nickname and the seller's account nickname. Any sales made via this link are tracked and the affiliate will receive commission according to the product’s commission percentage.
Because all of the transactions are facilitated via ClickBank, affiliates do not have to be concerned that they will not receive their commission from the sale. This process is automated and taken care of by ClickBank.
