Affiliate marketplace combining seller checkout, attribution, commissions, and publisher discovery.
#4 of 6 in Affiliate Networks by Overall Score
ClickBank gives product sellers e-commerce checkout, upsells, affiliate management, device-level attribution, and access to its affiliate marketplace. Affiliates can discover offers, use CPA or revenue-share commission structures, track clicks and conversions in real time, and connect account data through ClickBank APIs.
ClickBank sellers go through product and marketing-material approval before their offers appear in its marketplace. Its Direct Tracking Links bypass the conventional redirect but only work when the seller installs the Attribution Tracking Script and explicitly enables the option; otherwise affiliates rely on HopLinks. This matters for paid-media placements that restrict redirected URLs.
Calculated from facts we verified on ClickBank's own website, using published thresholds. Nobody can pay to change it. Together with Market Signal it makes the Overall Score of 48 that orders our lists.
