Which one is for you
Pick Affiliatly if
- Fits if you run a small online store and want a free way to try affiliate tracking
- Works for stores with fewer than 50 affiliates
Look elsewhere if
- Tight if you pass 50 tracked orders, which is the end of the free plan
- Skip it if you want a branded portal or staff accounts, which need Advanced at $24
- Watch out: auto-apply coupons and per-SKU commissions depend on your store integration
- Pricey if you grow: plans are capped by affiliate count, from 50 to 2,500 and then unlimited at $129
Pick LeadDyno if
- Fits if you're starting a program with up to 50 affiliates
- Works for creators selling courses or products on Squarespace or Wix
Look elsewhere if
- Tight if you pass 50 active affiliates, as Essential is $110 a month on yearly billing
- Not for you if you want a white-labeled dashboard or per-product commissions for less than $297 a month
- Too light for programs needing several commission plans or team members, as Lite has one plan and lists no extra seats
- Watch out: Lite is billed monthly only, so the 15% yearly saving doesn't apply, and MLM starts on Essential
- Pricey if you pass 500 affiliates, as only Unlimited at $637 a month billed annually removes the cap

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
