How To Register For ClickBank As A Nigerian

Registering for a ClickBank affiliate account is very easy and can be done in less than 2 minutes. Unfortunately Nigeria is among the list of countries, that aren’t included in the list of accepted countries. Here are two ways of successfully registering for ClickBank as a Nigerian.

WARNING: Do not buy any information product claiming to show you how to register for ClickBank as a Nigerian! The information below is the exact same thing you will get from them

Option Number One

Get a virtual address from GraphCard and use it to sign up for a ClickBank affiliate account. Get the details at the 2nd Commandment of the Top 10 Commandments Of Paid Online Surveys.

When asked for your phone number on the registration form, use Graphcard’s which is 301-483-9500.


Option Number Two

This is simple and straight forward. Get a trusted friend or family that lives in a ClickBank accepted country to open an account for you. Also make sure, he or she has a Tax Payer ID number.

Personally, I prefer the Option Number 2 and here is why.

Option 1 limits you to earnings of $600 a year. As soon as you make over $600 a year in commissions, you’ll be required to present a Tax Payer ID number that is linked to the Payee Name.

With Option 2, your friend registers for you and presents his/her own Tax Payer ID making it easy for you. You could even come up with an arrangement to split profits for his/her help.

NOTE:You can always change your payee name and country ANYTIME you wish.

That’s all you need to know about getting a clickbank account as a Nigerian.

  1. Fantastic info. Does this also apply to getting a paypal account verified in Nigeria?

  2. I just read your post on opening a clickbank account. I do have a trusted relative abroad who I can use his address but when been asked for a tax payer id, can I produce the person’s id with my name? hope it won’t contradict? Secondly, when he receives the check and sends to me can I pay the check into my account here in Nigeria without having any problems whatsoever with clickbank or does he have to cash it on my behalf. I just hope it does not limit the opportunities i have.

    • The best idea is to have the Clickbank account registered under your friend’s name and his tax payer ID. When your checks arrives, he cashes them and sends the money to you via Western Union or Money Gram. That’s the only LEGITIMATE way I know a Nigerian can work with ClickBank without getting axed/burnt.

      P.S: I noticed you left a link in your comment but I had it removed cos it was against my comment policy. I guess you didn’t wait for Commentluv to pick your feed url before you submitted your comment. Anyway I edited your name to include the keyword you were targeting. Hope you don’t mind ;)

    PLZ IS CLICKBANK FREE TO OPEN BCOZ I PREFER OPTIOM 1 TO GET A GRAPHCARD ADDRESS?

  4. Jeamm says:

    i am using both Clickbank and infolinks ads on my website. Clicbank generates more money than infolinks but your website should be getting lots of us traffic.

    P.S: Comment author’s URL was removed cos website was looking “shady”

  5. Morgan says:

    Big Brother,
    I call so because somehow i ended up spending nothing less than an hour on this site. You have lectured me on Graphcard. i was formally scared of that name. i ve registered & pls permit me to contact u soon.
    Thanks a million

  6. Morgan says:

    Pls in addition to the last comment waiting for an answer,
    1.I ve opened Graphcard & VTN account. Can i use this Graphcard to open ClickBank and Paypal account?, if yes, then what if i want to sign up with ClickBank & or Paypal,They do not have or accept Nigeria in the address space, so pls tell me what to do

    2. in trying to get a virtual address with Graphcard, will they really be montly chages?

    3. I ve GTB dorm. account, what about using GTB Master Card along with Graphcard,& how wil it be merged?
    .

    • Question 1: You don’t need GraphCard to open a clickbank account and as far as I know, you can’t open a PayPal account with GraphCard. Since ClickBank doesn’t accept Nigerians, you’ll have to get a virtual address from GraphCard and then sign up as though you were from the States. The best way is to get someone residing in a ClickBank accepted country to open an account for you.

      Question 2: Virtual Addresses from GraphCard attract a monthly fee. Simply check their website for their price offers

      Question 3: I’m clueless about merging GTB Master Card along with Graphcard. I don’t know if it’s possible.

      Feel free to contact me aagin and please make your questions as clear as possible. Cheers ;)

  7. Olusegun says:

    I asked my friend to do so for me too and asked him to let them know that the account will be accessed from Nigeria. They accepted and I even have the verification badge html code.

    I have since been receiving payments in the account.

    Another way to I used recently to open a CB account was to do so at a cafe that had the administrator’s account hooked with the Isreali ISP directly. That way, the IP address was foreign.

    So far no hassles yet.

    Thanks for the info above. since i am using virtual address,am i still expect to send tax stuff to them. remember the payee name is not my name.how do handle this

  14. @Owuogba: u are expected 2 send tax details only when u pass the $600 mark in earnings.
    P.S: Me thinks that d whole tax palaver has to do with those signing up with a U.S Address be it virtual or real.

    I wish to know the dollar rate for graphcard when you pay thru bank and notify them.Is it normal currency rates or somehw special rate like fastecash rate on Liberty reserve?

    • I really don’t know the current exchange rate for graphcard but what I do know is that lots of folks are complaining about their services most especially their aversion to answering phone calls and replying email. I wouldn’t really advise you to do business with them given the boat of load of complaints.

  30. Damola says:

    @Chuks, ure realli doin great job! Thanks! Thats td spirit of a good Nigerian. Wel, am also a good online biz tractor and i would say that there is nothing good that comes so easily. Both GraphCard and contactin a close pers abroad both has ‘but’. Nevadles, i use graphcard and i stil manage their service esp (customer care). I pray that we wil al get someday.

    • Udegbunam Chukwudi says:

      I envy your patience oh! I’m so used to getting what I want as a customer that if there are BUTS along the way I start to panic and gradually that panic turns into loath. I’m grateful to God that when I needed the attention of their customer care department, it wasn’t for a serious issue.

      Thanks for dropping in and for the compliments as well ;-)

  31. jkenogwe says:

    Please how can I pay graphcard to get PMB (ie which bank acc number). I have already registered

    • Udegbunam Chukwudi says:

      I highly recommended to contact Graphcard for that info ’cause it’s been a long time since I last transacted with Graphcard.

  32. jkenogwe says:

    I have finished d registration on both graphcard & VTN, so how much do I need to pay to fund my VTN account?

    • Udegbunam Chukwudi says:

      How much depends on you oh! Like I said before please contact VTN and Graphcard for your enquiries. I stopped dealing with them in 2008. Cheers

      The person isn’t opening the account for you. You are using his name and address to open the account thus checks will be sent to him and he would would have to submit a tax form to Clickbank

    • Udegbunam Chukwudi says:

      Your money will be send to graphcard where they’ll cash it, take their cut and send the rest to your local bank account here in Nigeria. That was how they operated before. I don’t know about now.

  44. john says:

    Can we register as Nigerians and still use the number supplied in number1 option, if yes how? Because the number needed should be at least 12digits the number given is 10digits
    Also I’d like to use option 1 for now till I get someone over there who can help me with tax payer Id. So the question is would I have to open another account when I find someone or I’d just have to make changes with the previous account

    • Udegbunam Chukwudi says:

      This post was written over 2 years ago and some stuff might just not work again. You’d have to get a 12 digit number if that’s what was needed. As long as your friend is the same country, you don’t have to open another account. You simply change the address and that’s all.

    Open paypal is easy as nigeria. But the limit of your account is what you have to put into consideration. If you dont know how to use paypal, do not use it so that you dont loose all your money with paypal. It is advisable to use like alertpay,libertyreserve and others that allow Nigeria
    For me i use paypal daily because i know the rule. For you ???? learn more first
