You probably reach this page because you are interested in a program called “Home Rebate Processor”. Well you’ve come to right place as you are going to read my experience and a no BS review of “Home Rebate Processor Certification Program”. You can read the sales letter at http://processathome.com
One fine morning I received an email from a lady called Angel Stevens to promote a program called “Home Rebate Processor Certification Program”. According to the sales letter, some companies are looking for people to process rebate. With only “60 minutes a day”, you can “earn $250 or more every day.. the easy way”. WOW! I’ve been working online for 4+ years and have never come across deal like this. Sound too good to be true huh, I went ahead to purchase the program at $197. Is this a real deal or a scam? Read on …

What’s Home Rebate Processor about?
Get this: there are no companies looking for people to process rebate in this program! Basically, the program teaches you how to promote Clickbank products, set up your Clickbank and Paypal account. In case you are not aware, Clickbank is digital product retailer. You can sign up with Clickbank as an affiliate(middleman) to promote their products for commissions cut (sometimes up to 70%). Clickbank is a legitimate company. Many people, including myself has made money with Clickbank. It is completely FREE to join Clickbank affiliate program.

Ok so where’s the rebate processing job? In Home Rebate Processor, you promote Clickbank products, and tell people that you are offering rebate for their purchase. Then, you pay them the rebate via Paypal after the purchase.
Case in point, you were promoting e-book A to John Smith. This e-book is selling at $100, with commission of $50, and you offer John a rebate of $20. John went ahead and made the purchase. Minutes later, John received Paypal fund of $20 from you. John just got a great deal, and you’ve just earned $30, everyone is happy! Well, not quite… which lead me to these points:

  1. You have to make minimum amount of commission before Clickbank issue a check.
  2. Clickbank will withhold your payment until you make minimum 5 sales from different credit cards (at least one Visa Card and one Master.
  3. If you follow he instructions in the program, your advertising cost may outweigh your commissions, which leave you negative profits.
  4. [Side note: I believe that you have the ability to meet more than minimum requirement to cash out your check, so the above 3 points may not be applicable to you, pay attention to my final point].

  5. Most importantly, Clickbank forbid the practice they preached in Home Rebate Process program! According to Clickbank Affiliate FAQ, “ClickBank accounts cannot be used for the sole purpose of collecting rebates”. Clickbank doesn’t allow its affiliate to offer rebates! If you are caught, your account may be shut down and there go your hard earned commissions.

In short, stay away from Home Rebate Processor!
