I’m with both, and find both a bit difficult. Found an expert at http://www.phoneforadvice.com – answers questions for both PDC and CB on the phone.

There are many different scripts that you can use. One of the most widely used scripts is dlguard.com. I believe that amember.com also has a plugin that will work with paydotcom.

Hi there, I am new to paydotcom and affiliate marketing and about to launch a new site. My question is, did anyone answer joseph williams question above “Ruck what would you suggest to secure your download page?”. This is one question I really need answering also. I’ve had a quick look at paydotcomguard.com, but was wondering what else you can do to secure your thank you page.

I never really liked PAYDOTCOM.

“My only issue with PAYDOTCOM is even though they say the vender is required to pay by the 15th of the next month. I have had to constantly e-mail some venders to get paid,some times net 60+.”

Yes that’s a big issue to think about. If you are promoting the product of your vendor and that vendor is making some excuses to process the payments on time, then it becomes a big issue for the affiliates like us. My question is there any role of paydotcom itself to clear the payments on time for affiliates or affiliates will be on their own to send repeated requests to their vendors? If that so then affiliates will have hard time selling on paydotcom network….

I looked into PayDotCom but decided with e-junkie. It only costs me $5 a month and thats it.

Yes,

With clickbank they handle all refund requests. If someone buys a CB product and requests a refund, it’s obvious that CB processes these without remorse or even dispute.

With Paypal though and you being a vendor, if someone requests a refund or disputes (chargeback) you have the option to at least dispute this. I have always suggested to get a Paypal Rep that you can contact for these sort of things.

I actually just got froze again and within hours all I did was call my Rep and got the whole thing cleared immediately. At least with Paypal, if someone disputes you, you get the chance to respond back and even dispute it yourself whereas with Clickbank you never even know about it, until it’s showing in your account.

“Since you are the vendor and Paypal is the payment processor you can challenge any disputes that arise. I can’t tell you how many times my partner has won these disputes. It’s another way to keep jerkoffs from ripping you off.”

Ruck,

Can you explain how this is different from CB?

I’m not familiar with the dispute process for PDC. It seems to me that CB will allow anyone to buy your product, then they can turn around and immediately ask for a refund and you lose your commission.

Thanks!

Nick,

Paydotcom Vendors are required to payout by the 15th of the following month. So anything you earned in November would be payed out by Dec 15th.

Every vendor I have promoted and even my partner and I's site, we payout around the 6th-10th. This gives us an extra week into the new month to process any refund requests.

To see what type of commission % a vendor will pay an affiliate, you simply scan PDC Marketplace for products by category, much like Clickbank. Each program is listed in order and their will be a paragraph of text below it. Generally this says:

Pays 60.00% on Level1
Seller Accepts PAYPAL

I'm glad you brought this up, as I totally missed it didn't I.

Vendors are reminded in their accounts from PDC from the 1st-15th of fees they need to pay and that their affiliates are due payments.

Very interesting, there were some things here that were not very clear to me. Thanks for clearing that out. So what is the standard payout time at PDC? Net 15, Net 30, or it depends on every vendor?
Is there a way to find out just by browsing through the paydotcom marketplace products what is the payout standard for a certain product? For instance i do not like promoting products which have more than a net 30 days payout limit. Is there a way for me to find such vendors, without emailing each of them?
