ClickBank payment and Age questions.

Hello, everyone.
First of all, I carefully read this
21025-advise-please-how-use-clickbank-paypal-their-full-if-my-country-their-use-limited.html
thread, so you might say that I did part of my homework before posting a thread.
Here is my case, and I want to ask you for advice on how best to act based on this situation:
--I am still not 18. Still several months to go.
I have very carefully read the documentation on the ClickBank site and I didn't find anything related to not being able to register and promote if you are not 18.
--I am from Bulgaria. That means that the country I am in is not in the Direct Deposit (International) country list, so that leaves Wire Payment (International) as an only option. However they do offer my country as an option when signing up and you have to pick your country.

Promoting clickbank products is something I believe I will be good at.
So I need your help on the following questions:

Taken the conditions above, How is it best to set up my account:

Since my parents don't want me to use their names, but are OK for me to use their PayPal account, I was thinking to register with my name. But does ClickBank allow for a PayPal account to have a different name than the account name? I.E. The name on the account to which they write the checks is XXX, but the name on the PayPal account is YYY. Will they accept that?

Next, they say I have to receive 2 checks before they can start "wiring" the money. Does receive mean "to cash" to just recieve? Because I am not sure I will be able to cash them since I am not 18.

After that comes the "payment threshold" part. What is my interest to make that payment threshold 1 000 000 dollars and not 10? It makes more sense to be able to recieve your money when you want, so obviously one would choose 10. Or does ClickBank allow you to pay for online goods with that money and that is why it allows the 1 000 000 dollar part?

What does wire payment mean? Can't you select PayPal for your payment method after the 2 checks?
If you're located in an eligible country, once you've received two paper checks from ClickBank within a 12-week time period, you can start receiving payment via direct deposit. Once you become eligible for direct deposit, you can specify this as your payment method in Account Settings->Payment Information. If you are not within a country supported by direct deposit you may be eligible to receive wire payments.
Does ClickBank "publish" your real name anywhere that can be found via a google search or whatever? This is important to know, because it might help in convincing someone to let me use their name. I read around, but couldn't find anything in the legal notices.

So this about sums it up and if I think of anything else, I will ask in the comments.

Any help is much appreciated and thanks in advance!
Happy Holidays!

    Not sure i get what your trying to say but i will give it a shot.
    You can cash cheques at your bank if your under 18, I have been cashing click bank cheques since i was 15.

    Payment threshold - you set this yourself it means they pay you once you reach the threshold.
    For example your threshold is $20. You make $12 in sales in 2 weeks they will not send you out a check
    You make a another $12 in sales now you have $24 balance in your account and in the next billing period you have reached your threshold of $20 so they will send you the cheque. I think you need at least 5 different credit card numbers to have paid for things you have sold as an affiliate until they release payments

    ClickBank will withhold payment of any account balance until the following criteria is met:

    Sales made with 5 or more different credit card numbers; and,
    Sales made with two different payment methods (either Visa, MasterCard, PayPal or European Direct Debit(ELV)). Note: PayPal purchases do not count toward the minimum 5 different credit card numbers.

    They need to send you at least 2 cheques to you before they can give you wire transfer to confirm your address.
    Wire Transfer will cost you $35 for each wire sent. So Cheques are cheaper to receive.
