Making Money Online - ClixGalore Issues

This morning, I finally had an email of ClixGalore, one of the affiliate network I am working with. They sent me $1,947 to my PayPal account. That’s cool. Yeah, and no.

Actually, I am happy that these last month earnings are finally arriving, but last month, before payments start being processed, I asked them, since I broke the $1,000 commission mark in a month to directly transfer this to my bank account.

After an email from me and them, I gave them my IBAN (International Bank Account Number in case you’re wondering). I sent another email to get confirmation they well received it. They said yes, so I was just waiting the money to appear in my bank account.

There is no really much difference that it comes to my PayPal account or directly in my bank account. But it just seems like I wasted my time to ask them for a wire transfer, giving them bank informations and that they confirm they will do it, and actually didn’t.

I emailed them again, asking to solve this, but then I saw something interesting and have to email them again to tell them it was okay for me to get my funds with PayPal.

ClixGalore doesn’t transfer funds instantly, they pay with a deferred wire. So I first receive an email telling me I WILL receive money, but have to wait one more week to have the transaction completed.

ClixGalore would have taken a $35 fee to send me the funds to my bank account. In PayPal, I saw that the fees were only $5. This is because on deferred payment, fees can’t be more than $5. Well it’s written, no more than 5 Euros, but I got a $5 fee, which is better than $35.

Then, transferring the funds from PayPal to my bank account will be free. I’ve always been paid by ClixGalore since I’m using them. It’s quite long to wait for payment but that’s the way it is and ClixGalore is currently the network I’m making the most of my money.

I’m using a lot of other networks but for now, they don’t made me as much. I need to find the offers for each networks that will make the difference.

Happy New Year

I’m a little late, I know. Sorry for the delay, but it’s better late than never. So HAppy new year to everyone.

I’m currently not at home. I visited friends for the holidays and I should be back Saturday. Working online gives  this advantage to work from anywhere in the world, providing you have an internet connection. I even don’t have a laptop, but my friends let me use their computer to update my websites and blogs.

That’s cool, and it’s a nice way to keep some social life. It’s true that working from home can keep you away from your friends and family. When I am at home, I spend most of the time at my computer. I think that being able to work from the home of others force me to work faster, and spend some times with them, cause I can’t just say “Hey I use the computer all day long, see you tonight”.

Well my vacations are almost over so I still have some little times to have fun.

Bye.
