## Description

Recruitment, onboarding, tracking and payouts for affiliate, referral, co-sell and influencer programs. It has a marketplace it says carries 131,000+ active partners, so you can recruit there instead of starting from zero. It adds full-funnel reporting, automated commission payouts across partner types, and lead submission from email and Slack. Published network figures are $4M+ in sales a day, 33,000+ referred customers a day and $606K+ a day paid out in commissions. That is across 600+ enterprise customers, with onboarding quoted at 30 to 45 days. Owned by AppDirect.

## Watch for

Nothing here knows what a Shopify app is. There is no Partner API connection, no install attribution and no App Store anything. So a Shopify app developer wires it up by hand and pays enterprise prices, while the cheap, native equivalents are two rows up in this category. Pricing is set per program in a demo and not published, so you cannot compare it with PartnerDock or Shoffi without booking a sales call first. The 30 to 45 day onboarding is their own number, and it tells you what kind of company this is sold to. It is listed because an app developer selling to agencies and enterprise partners at scale does eventually outgrow a link tracker. This is the platform they end up looking at.
