    I want to start an affiliate program selling my products. Since I do not want to deal with payment every month, refund and so on, I want to use a third party like Clickbank and Pay Dot Com.

    aMember is working well with paypal.

    If I use a third party affiliate program, problems (at least I think) would be

    1. I won't be able to keep customers and affiliates in aMember Pro's lists (right?)

    Or is it possible to integrate aMember with a third party affiliate program without troubles?

    Thanks in advance.

    If you use clickbank as an affiliate program, you then use the clickbank system, not amember.

    You can use amembers system if you want- but then you would not use the clickbank affiliate system.

    Sorry, not clear what the question is.

    I have the same question as Hiro. This is my situation:

    I'm currently using aMember + paypal payments for my subscriptions.

    I want to start an affiliate program through Clickbank. The question is:

    Can I keep my current aMember + paypal set up (ie. get new subscribers through my own advertising/SEO/newsletter), plus get new subscribers through Clickbank?

    I don't mind if this has to be done through different lists.

    Yes, you just have to be very careful about sending clickbank referrers to a signup page in amember set to clickbank.

    How do you do that? I keep getting told that I have to have a clickbank ID in every product I create, even thouhg I don't want to do that, but I do want to use Clickbank for one product, and not for others.

    Does this make sense?

    Thanks.

    Use a number like 999 for the non-clickbank products.
