New ClickFunnels Affiliate Program Review: Features & How To Apply

New ClickFunnels Affiliate Program has a tiered structure starting from 20% recurring commission for new affiliates to 40% when you have over 40 subscribers

There is a new ClickFunnels affiliate program following a recent review.

The ClickFunnels affiliate program is my favourite for earning recurring commissions.

ClickFunnels have updated and revamped the program with effect from August 2019.

A new tiered structure was introduced.

You have to go through an application process and approval to become an affiliate.

In addition, there is greater emphasis on ethics and the manner in which affiliates conduct their business.

If you are a beginner with affiliate marketing, this is one of the best programs to choose from.

Here is what I am going to cover in this review:

ClickFunnels is a software for building sales funnels.

Sales funnels are the quickest way to bring a product or service to the market.

By focusing the customer journey, sales funnels are more effective than websites for generating both leads and sales.

ClickFunnels is growing rapidly.

There are currently over 127,000 businesses using ClickFunnels.

The market and opportunity remain considerable.

New Tiered ClickFunnels Affiliate Program Structure

Previously all ClickFunnels affiliates enjoyed 40% affiliate commissions.

There was also a 2nd tier 5% commission level which has been withdrawn.

New affiliates will now start at the 20% commission level.

Not only that, but new affiliates cannot promote the software itself directly.

They can only do so if someone enrolls through the affiliate button on the bottom right hand corner of a funnel.

New affiliates can promote the books, Expert Secrets, DotCom Secrets and Traffic Secrets.

They can also promote The One Funnel Away Challenge and the 30 Days Virtual Summit both of which earn $100 commissions.

Once you have earned $1000 in commissions in a month, you can apply to become an approved affiliate earning 30% monthly commissions.

This then increases to 40% when an affiliate has over 40 active members.

A minimum of $100 earned is required before an affiliate is paid.

This is paid after the 30 day cooling off period on the 1st and 15th of the month.
