ClickBank

ClickBank is a massive e-commerce retailer and affiliate marketplace that specializes in digital products, such as eBooks, software, and online courses. It is famous in the gig economy for offering extremely high commission rates—often between 50% and 75% of the product price. This makes it a favorite for beginner affiliate marketers and those without physical inventory.

The platform serves as a payment processor for product creators (vendors) and a marketplace for marketers (affiliates). With no approval process for most products, affiliates can grab a "HopLink" and start promoting immediately. It is a legitimate platform that has paid out billions to its users, though due diligence is needed to find high-quality products to promote.
