You probably would be asking what recurring billing product means. These are products listed in the market of ClickBank which will bill the customer multiple times once the sale is done. How is that possible? Example of items which fall in the category of recurring billing products are software licenses, membership sites, newsletters, subscriptions and products which involve trial period. These products require regular cyclical fees. So, customers are billed repeatedly based on a particular schedule. Along with that, your commission as an affiliate will not stop at the amount you got from the initial sale. You will also be receiving commissions everytime the customer gets billed.
An affiliate would of course exert effort in promoting the product in ClickBank. Once a customer views the HopLink, gets redirected to the vendor’s website, closes a sale and this is credited to the affiliate. This same process goes for the recurring billing products but the difference is that, you do not only get commission once. It can become a potential continuous source of income. For every single time that the customer is billed for his subscription, you, as an affiliate, also get a commission. This may go on depending on the how often the customer will be billed. It may be bi-weekly, monthly or maybe annually. The cycle of the subscription may also last for a month or more or even for several years.
