Most internet marketers begin their search for places to sell digital products on the most obvious affiliate management program on the internet. What most of these marketers forget is that there are plenty of other competitors on the market that can offer the same service as ClickBank but with lower costs involved. PayGear is one of the newer marketplaces for digital goods that allows you to get your internet marketing campaign underway with lower prices.

Whats the difference between the two? PayGear allows you to create one single account which allows you to be both a vendor and an affiliate. This means you only need to remember one log-in and one password, rather than maintaining two separate accounts. This offers you a lot more flexibility as you can run your own product sales as well as promote other affiliate products from a single account.

This ClickBank competitor also offers you the advantage of selecting your choice of payment options. This means you can use the payment method of credit card using your own banks merchant processing account, or you can use PayPal or Google Checkout. With more options to choose from, youre not stuck using a payment method that might not suit you.

Your checkout page can be completely customized with PayGear, which allows your customers to feel much more secure that theyre dealing with the same site they purchased goods from, rather than being sent to a site theyre not familiar with. This also allows you to present a more professional aspect to your transactional process.

Amazingly, the PayGear program seems to be the only one I can find that allows you to one click create coupon codes for your products. Its a long proven fact that people buy more if they have a coupon, and are three times more likely to buy at all with coupon in hand.

The inclusion of an in-built system in which you can contact your affiliates individually or you can mail out mass-correspondence to all your affiliates to let them know of new products youve released or whether youre offering incentives or if youve changed your prices.

You can automate your affiliate payments through your payment program, set up as you want to pay them. Setting the amount of commission you pay to your affiliates is easy here too, allowing you to give up to 95% commissions per product.

Have you ever been paid on transaction costs? No? I didnt think so, but with this ClickBank competitor, you get 30% of all fees returned to you, which as a seller is another income stream for you and helps offset your incurred costs.

When considered side by sided, PayGear comes out as being a clearly serious competitor to the old ClickBank model, which is beginning to appear outdated with the amount of features it lacks. If youre serious about your internet marketing business, then consider PayGear as a real alternative to grow your business.
