But my friends, to be honest, I am completely blur when see the table.
I've couple of question here.
(before you scold me, I've been browsing clickbank about 30 minutes to find the answer for my question, unfortunately I can't find the answer there)

1. If you look at the table, there is section of credit, debit and allowance.
What does it mean? I tried to add and substract the figures give, but can't get to my Payment Net.

Where do the figures come from

2. Do I always to make at least sale from 5 different vendors everytime to qualified me to be paid by clickbank?

Ahh...there's a lot actually.
But the above one is really bother me a lot.

Please help me somebody.

    Credits are your sales (people who bought from you).

    Debits could be returns (people who bought and then requested a refund).

    Allowance is the amount that CB holds from your cheques until the refund period is over. Ex. If someone buys a product with a 60 day money back guarantee, CB will hold some of your sales money to make sure you can refund a purchase if it is requested.

    And, no, CB only needs you to meet the criteria of 5 different purchasers with different credit cards one time. So you should not have to meet the criteria again in the future.

    Hope that helps.

    P.S. Congrats on your first cheque! You must be very excited!!

    Easy (I think)

    at the beginning of the current period you had $963.27
    in the current period you earned $302.11 which was added to the $963.27
    you had debits (refunds plus the processing fee for sending you a cheque)
    of $142.10 which was taken off the previous grand total of $963.27+302.11
    then they also keep some in case there are refunds (allowance)
    which you have to take off as well.
    But: you'll get that eventually, whereas the debits are gone.

    makes sense?

    Veit

    PS: congrats on such a nice first CB check. Mine was only about a third of that, I still remember;-)
    are you willing to share how you got such a steep rise in turnover in recent times?

      Hey Veit, thanks for the info. Really appreciated it.
      As for appreciation, I will share how I did it.

      1. I've collected mailing list.

      2. My problem before this, is I don't have lot of good product to promote for my mailing list.

      3. So my mailing list is dying. They just got once a week of my emails, asking how they are doing and a little bit update about how the niche is going on.

      4. Dead. My mailing list is dead.

      5. What I was doing last time, I was summoning my mailing list to wake up from the grave yard, they are woke up and now became Zombie.

      6. I name it, Promoting To Zombies......

      7. Since Zombie is so thirsty of informations I given them before, I guess this is my time to give them a big cup of drinks.

      8. Guess what? Instead of promoting product with $10 or $20 commission per sale, I now selected the highest commission product I will received from Clickbank.

      At that time, I just found, the highest I can get from my niche is $138 per sale.

      9. But wait, I don't want to promote a product that not everyone of my mailing list can't afford it. So what I did, was, I sent them an email, that asking them, to subscribe to a new mailing list, which this mailing list is so special, where people with money only, will appreciated it.

      10. On my new list, I brainwash the Zombies, that they were not just ordinary Zombie. Instead, they were a Zombie with high appetite.
      They need to work hard or pay more, to eat Big Foot.

      11. Within a week, with my Zombie theory, I managed to earn $879.23 commission.

      The end of my story.



      This is not a joke, till now, I really think that my mailing list is a zombie. When I asking what they want to know, they don't answer me. But when I give them freebies or sell them new stuff, their response are very high.
      Weird but it's true.

        This comes to show it's not hard at all.

        You just have to be a little creative and think outside the box.

    Hi, Raja.

    I think I can help.

    Balance Forward (the amount you had in your account up to current date.
    Credits (New Sales)
    Debits (Refunds or other deductions from your balance)
    Allowance (The amount that Clickbank hangs onto - temporarily - to cover possible future refunds.)

    So your check is:
    $963.27 (bal fwd)
    +302.11 (credits)
    -142.10 (debits)
    -112.58 (allowance)
    1010.70 - check

    And no, you don't have to have charges from 5 different people again after the first time, you just have to reach your payment threshold in the future.

    Congrats on your first check!

    Congrats Raja!

    Just wanted to add that the allowance CB withholds is taken from each paycheck. After 12 weeks pass, they start to add those to your current paycheck.
    So, that $112.58 will be added to your paycheck 3 months from now.

    Cheers!
