Editor's verdict
ClickDealer is one of the longer-running CPA networks, operating since 2012, and its current offer mix centers on e-commerce, lead generation, pay per call, telehealth and software downloads. Payment terms are clearly written down: monthly Net 15, a $500 minimum on regular accounts, and wire, PayPal, Payoneer, Tipalti, Bitcoin or eCheck as methods.
The strongest reasons to apply are the in-house platform (event-level postbacks, lander rotation, an API and custom domains), a real pay-per-call desk with call recordings, and the funded ClickDealer 360 program for buyers who can scale paid social and search. Smartlink Only accounts give smaller publishers a $100 entry point.
The caveats sit in the publisher agreement. Commissions are paid only after the advertiser pays, any fraudulent share of traffic can void the whole balance, weekly payouts need $1,000 a week, and a 6-month non-compete covers advertisers an affiliate promoted. Approval is manual and includes a manager interview. It is a strong fit for affiliates running tracked, compliant traffic at volume, while beginners are better served by the Smartlink route.

About ClickDealer
What ClickDealer is
ClickDealer is a CPA network and performance marketing company founded in Kyiv in 2012 and run today by CDI Marketing Group B.V. from Amsterdam. It began as a small Ukrainian network built around one vertical and now lists offices in the Netherlands, the USA, Canada, Ukraine, China, Spain and Poland. ClickDealer says it works with about 10,000 active publishers and more than 1,000 advertiser clients and serves 40 billion ad impressions a month, around 60% of it mobile. Next to the main CPA network it runs a separate Smartlink platform, a pay-per-call desk and a funded media buying program called ClickDealer 360.
Offers and verticals
The current focus is e-commerce and retail, lead generation, pay per call, health and beauty, telehealth and downloads such as antivirus and consumer software. Publisher pages also list loans, debt relief, insurance, nutra, home services and dropshipping, while the pay-per-call side covers insurance, Medicare, home services, solar, pest control, junk cars and flight booking. Offers run across roughly 180 GEOs, with exclusives from brands ClickDealer works with directly. The company’s own figures vary between pages (10,000 vs 15,000+ publishers, 18 vs 40 verticals), so affiliates are better off judging it by the offer list they see after approval.
Commission models and payouts
Offers pay on CPA, CPL, CPS, CPI, revenue share and pay per call, with rates set per offer in the dashboard. Regular accounts are paid monthly on Net 15 once the balance tops $500 for the period. Weekly Net 7 payouts are reserved for trusted affiliates earning over $1,000 a week (long-term partners are also offered weekly Net 5, so the exact schedule is worth confirming with the manager). Smartlink Only accounts have a $100 threshold. Methods are wire, PayPal, Payoneer, Tipalti, Bitcoin and eCheck. Two cash-flow points matter: commissions are owed only after the advertiser pays ClickDealer, and an inactive balance left unclaimed for 12 months can be written off.
The referral program pays 2% of a referred affiliate’s earnings for 6 months, withdrawable from $100. A loyalty program adds 1 point per $10 earned, redeemable for merchandise rather than cash.
Tracking, tools and platform
The in-house platform supports global and per-campaign or per-event postbacks (testable without a live conversion), custom redirect domains, landing page rotation, creative split testing, multi-event reporting and multi-user access for teams. The API covers the offer feed, tracking links, postbacks and reporting, capped at 500 calls a day unless approved. Pay-per-call campaigns come with unlimited tracking numbers and call recordings.
Traffic rules and compliance
Display, native, search, push, pop, video, social and email are accepted, but each advertiser’s restrictions come first. Email is allowed only where the offer permits it or with written approval, must follow CAN-SPAM, and opt-in proof is due within 2 business days of a complaint. Using third-party trademarks needs written consent, so brand bidding is off the table unless the offer allows it. One account per person, and ID or location proof can be requested at any time. The fraud clause is strict: a fraudulent share of traffic can forfeit the whole commission, with 7 days after a hold to prove otherwise. A 6-month non-compete bars affiliates from dealing directly with advertisers they ran through ClickDealer.
Support and getting started
Sign-up runs in four steps: application form, email confirmation, a short interview with a personal manager, then account access. Reviews take up to 72 working hours. Support comes through the assigned manager, affiliates@clickdealer.com and a Telegram channel, and the company advertises 24/7 coverage in 11 languages.
Who it suits
ClickDealer fits experienced media buyers and teams who want a long-running network with mainstream e-commerce, lead gen and call offers and are comfortable with a $500 floor and monthly Net 15 terms. Newer affiliates may do better starting on a Smartlink Only account or with a network that pays from a lower threshold.

Frequently asked questions
How long does ClickDealer take to approve affiliates?
ClickDealer allows up to 72 working hours to review each application, though replies often come sooner. Approval depends on the applicant's performance marketing experience, and the process includes a short interview with a personal manager after the email address is confirmed.
What is the ClickDealer minimum payout?
Regular accounts must exceed $500 in a billing period before a payment is issued. Smartlink Only accounts have a lower $100 threshold. Smaller amounts, down to $100, are possible only on mutually agreed termination or by individual agreement.
How often does ClickDealer pay affiliates?
The default schedule is monthly on Net 15. Weekly payments on Net 7 are offered to trusted affiliates with proven traffic quality who earn over $1,000 a week on a regular account or $100 a week on a Smartlink Only account. Long-term partners can also qualify for weekly Net 5, so affiliates should confirm their exact terms with their manager.
Which payment methods does ClickDealer support?
Affiliates can be paid by wire transfer, PayPal, Payoneer, Tipalti, Bitcoin or eCheck, and can choose or pause the method per billing cycle. Whichever method an affiliate picks, ClickDealer still requires their actual bank details on file.
What commission models does ClickDealer offer?
Offers pay on CPA, CPL, CPS, CPI, revenue share and pay per call, depending on the advertiser. Payouts are set per offer and shown in the affiliate dashboard after approval.
What traffic does ClickDealer accept?
ClickDealer accepts display, native, search, push, pop, video, social and email traffic, subject to each offer's restrictions. Email needs offer-level permission or written approval and must comply with CAN-SPAM, and third-party trademarks cannot be used without written consent.
Which verticals and GEOs does ClickDealer cover?
The main verticals are e-commerce and retail, lead generation, pay per call, health and beauty, telehealth and software downloads, with loans, debt relief, insurance, nutra and home services also listed. ClickDealer says it runs campaigns in about 180 GEOs.
Does ClickDealer support postbacks and an API?
Yes. Affiliates can set a global postback or separate postbacks per campaign and event, and test them without a real conversion. The API covers the offer feed, tracking links, postbacks and reporting, with a default limit of 500 calls a day.
Does ClickDealer have a referral program?
Yes. Affiliates earn 2% of a referred affiliate's earnings for 6 months after that partner joins through their referral link, which sits under Tools, Referral program. Only new affiliates qualify, and referral earnings can be withdrawn once they reach $100.
What happens if ClickDealer flags an affiliate's traffic as fraudulent?
The affiliate's payment is put on hold, and they have 7 days to prove the traffic is clean, for example by sharing tracker access or the creatives used. If they cannot, ClickDealer can cancel the commission and close the account, and proof that any share of traffic was fraudulent can forfeit the whole balance.
