Part 01 · Overview
Welcome
What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first
1.8
GPA, above 22 of the 89 other affiliate and referral tools we grade
Affilae is a platform for running affiliate and creator programs, sold as a monthly subscription plus a small percentage of each validated sale. It covers publisher management, AI partner matching, promo code tracking, commission splitting and payouts. Higher plans add a growth consultant or a dedicated account manager.
To get you started, here are 9 things to know about Affilae, taken from its own pages and our grades.
You set up accounts and programs before it does anything, so there is a learning curve.
- 1
Best for affiliate and influencer programs with a percentage fee
Affilae is an affiliate platform with partner matching, payments and influencer tracking.
- 2
Paid plans start at $99 a month
As its pricing page puts it: $99 per month plus 2.5% of each validated sale.

- 6

Keep it
To replace Affilae you would be making payouts to partners in many countries, with their tax forms. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.

The report card
Best for affiliate and influencer programs with a percentage fee
Affilae is an affiliate platform with partner matching, payments and influencer tracking. Build is $99 a month and also takes 2.5% of each validated sale, with a 3-month commitment tied to the free month.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | C | Build is $99 a month plus 2.5% per validated sale, between the $69 middle and the $159 dearer quarter. Grow is $249 plus 2%. |
| Free plan and trial | D | One month free on Build, but it comes with a 3-month commitment. |
| Features | C | An affiliate platform, partner matching, payments and influencer tracking. Per-lead programs need a custom offer, and API automation starts at Grow. |
| Ease of use | C | No store rating on record. You set up accounts and programs before it does anything, so there is a learning curve. |
| Platforms and integrations | C | Web only, and the listing names no integrations. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
Who Affilae is for
- Fits if you want affiliates and influencers tracked in one place
- Works for brands paying per validated sale
Who it is not for
- Pricey if your sales are large, because each plan also takes a percentage of validated sales
- Watch out: prices exclude tax and the trial month needs a 3-month commitment
- Not for you if you pay per lead, as that needs a custom offer
- Tight if you want to automate, since API access starts at Grow
Good to know
Good for
- Brands combining affiliate and creator partnerships in one tool
- Teams that want a fixed fee plus a share of sales rather than a revenue-only fee
- Agencies managing programs for several clients under dedicated terms
Worth knowing
- Each plan also takes a percentage of validated sales, 2.5% on Build and 2% on Grow.
- Prices exclude tax, and the trial month comes with a 3-month commitment on Build.
- Programs paying per lead or with no sale value need a custom offer.
- API automation is limited to Grow and above.

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
To replace Affilae you would be making payouts to partners in many countries, with their tax forms. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 45 of the 89 other affiliate and referral tools grade higher. It costs $1,188 a year.
What you could make
- Reports: an app builder makes this well.
What you could not
- Payouts to partners in many countries, with their tax forms.
- Every click and sale traced back to the right partner.
- An API that other software can build on.
What this rests on. Affilae’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
