Is It Possible To Sell Rights To My Clickbank Product?

8 replies
I build a website. Created a product. Populated the blog. Created a whiteboard scribble sales video. Paid and approved in Clickbank.

I am entering into a new niche that is totally unrelated and I probably wont be able to maintain this one.

Is it possible to sell the website with the product and transfer all rights?

I mean, how would one take over the product without having access to my clickbank account?

Is this even possible?

I know others have sold websites with sales letters and products included.. but what do you do about Clickbank.. without the new buyer having to pay and submit the product all over again?

    Sure you can do that. You don't give them access to your account, the buyer needs their own. The buyer just has to insert his own buy code. You'd remove your buy code on the sales page and just leave a placeholder for the next owner when you make the transfer.

    That makes sense. So the product will still be listed in my account but it will have their buy button?

    And Clickbank will be ok with that?

    No, they'd have to list it in their Clickbank account, or they could use another payment processor. You'd remove it from your Clickbank account. You want to divest yourself of all connections to the product once it's no longer under your control. You don't know what the next guy will do with it, so if he does something dumb, like spam, it won't come back on you.

      Sooo that pretty much shoots down the selling point of "already approved in clickbank" right?

      I know there are plenty of people who go to JVzoo just because they heard with all the new guidelines that its hard and takes a long time to get approved in Clickbank.

      So I thought that would be an added selling point. But you are saying I have to remove it from my acccount and they would have to resubmit it on their own again anyway?

  • If you have more than one product active in your one and only Clickbank account, then you need to open a separate CB account and put the product you want to transfer to a new owner in there.

    Note that you will have to go through the approval process again for the product, but that's a good thing because you don't want the new owner to have to go through the process of setting up a new account, with the chance of the approval process not going well for them.

    If you however only have the one product linked to your CB account, then simply contact CB and ask for detailed instructions on how to transfer ownership. They should then send you the steps to take.

    You can post it up on Flippa or Ebay to sell the complete package. Do keep in mind that it would probably be better if you ran a PPC campaign or promoted the product any other way (affiliates, email list, etc.) and had some money coming in before selling it, to show that it actually makes money.

    Nobody wants to buy a dud, and duds with a Clickbank product are a dime a dozen. You can easily spot a dud: The ad Copy is amateurish, so are the graphics, and the way that the message is conveyed. I'm sure there is a lot more but this is usually what sticks out when I first see a sales page. If it's amateurish then there is a pretty good chance that the rest of the product will be the same.

    Look through CBEngine, there are so many of these sites out there that pop up daily. Makes yours different, successful, before putting it up for sale. And have it make money.

    And yes it is a plus that CB as approved it. This shows that the buyer shouldn't have a problem getting it approved either once he buys it and puts it under his name. There is always that risk of not being approved but this shows less of a risk.

    Anyways, good luck.

    I bought a site/product on Flippa a couple years ago. It was the only product in the account, so he gave me the login information and I just took it over. I don't know that it's always this simple, but I didn't have any issues.

    Yeah I only have one account.. and I have payments pending because I use the same account for my affiliate promotions...

    I guess if I plan to sell I need to create a new account then, eh?
