impact.com is the most complete platform here, covering affiliates, creators, customer referrals and retail media in one account. Brands can recruit from 250K+ partners, run contracts and payouts in 70+ currencies, and track across devices with cookieless attribution. It now publishes prices. The Starter tier costs $30 per month plus 2.5% of revenue and is self-serve for Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, Adobe Commerce, Squarespace and a few other store platforms, with basic tracking, partner recommendations, Amazon, Walmart and Best Buy integration, and chat support. Essentials at $500 per month includes up to $2,500 a month in partner payouts and adds the Partner Marketplace, creator management and customer referrals. Pro at $2,500 adds API-based tracking, custom commission rates and analytics. Every tier needs a 12-month contract, and setup for Essentials and above is billed at $250 per hour, so the real cost of moving up is higher than the sticker price.
