I think I was in your situation ...
First thing, I don't want to have to send out cheques. Ringgit Malaysia was not traded and was pegged at 3.8. Meaning, it has no value outside the country. So I can't send my affiliate cheques. And opening a US business and bank account is just too much trouble.
With that using 2Checkout, WorldPay, and using a 3rd party affiliate management is out of the question.
With Paypal, yes I can pay affiliates much easier. But with Paypal, though I can put in fund using my credit card, I can't withdraw the fund to a local bank. So if I make a lot with Paypal, I can never get the cash.
I thought that ClickBank can solve my problem. They can accept payment for me, and pay my affiliates. But it turns out that ClickBank has a 'thing' with Malaysians. I can't sign up with them.
But I know then, what I need is a company that
- Can accept payment on my behalf
- Can pay my affiliates
- Accept Malaysians as a seller
- Can send me the fund (wired or cheque)
I was searching, and searching ... and searching ...
Here's what I found ...
http://RegNow.com
http://Plimus.com
http://RegSoft.com
http://iBill.com
http://eSellerate.net
http://ShareIt.com
And finally I settled with Plimus. One thing, it's because that they have no setup fee. And their rate is quite reasonable compared to the others. And I can offer my product in a CD.
I hope this helps ...
