ClickBank Quick Start Guide

Slightly more complicated than setting up a PayPal product, setting up a Secure Delivery product to use ClickBank requires that you cut and paste two items that Secure Delivery provides to you in to your ClickBank My Account section.  This guide will walk you through the simple process step-by-step.

Step 1:  Create New Product

From the Secure Delivery Control Panel, enter the name of the product you want to set up.



Step 2:  Product Options

Next you will fill in the basic product information that will allow Secure Delivery to relay transactions to ClickBank for processing and then process the valid transactions to authorize downloads for paying customers.


Notes:
  • Your ClickBank Publisher ID is the same as your ClickBank vendor login.
  • If you don't know your item number, insert a new unique number and save it.  You will be able to specify your item number when setting up your Secure Delivery product inside ClickBank later.

Step 3:  Upload Your Product

Secure Delivery automatically delivers your products to paying customers.  To do this without your involvement, Secure Delivery hosts your products on our secure server for delivery when payment is made.



Once you have selected the file on your computer to upload and click Next, the upload status window will automatically open showing your upload progress.



After the product upload has completed Secure Delivery will automatically proceed to the next step.

Step 4:  Delivery Options

The product options page is arranged into option groups.  These groups are closed / gray if there are no product options set in that group.



Of all the product options on this page, the only required fields are the contact name and email in the first option group.  These will be displayed to your customers on the download page, in transaction / download emails, etc.



Once you have set your options, click Next to generate Buy Button and Link codes.

Step 5:  Generate Buy Buttons / Link Codes

Secure Delivery offers both buy text links (for use in forums, email, etc) and buy buttons (for use on web pages, HTML email, blogs, etc).



Once you have copied and pasted your buy button or link code to your sales site, click Finish to complete the Secure Delivery portion of the product setup process.

Step 6:  Configure ClickBank to work with Secure Delivery

Upon completion of product setup in Secure Delivery the system will provide you with a Thank You URL and a Secret Key for integration with the ClickBank system.



6a:  Pasting the Secret Key in Clickbank

After logging in to ClickBank, navigate to the Account Settings > My Account page.  Here you will paste the Secret Key exactly as provided by Secure Delivery in to your ClickBank control panel.



After you have pasted your Secret Key click "Save Changes" to apply your modifications.

6b:  Pasting your Thank You URL in to ClickBank

Next you will need to navigate to the Account Settings > My Products page inside your ClickBank control panel.  Here you will create a new product, or modify an existing product and paste your Thank You URL.



Double check to ensure that the Item number matches the number you provided while setting up your product in Secure Delivery and click Save Changes to apply your modification.

Done! You are now ready to submit your product approval request to ClickBank as you normally would and begin selling your product!
