Weak · out of 4.0 · graded Nov 13, 2026
Best for pay-for-results customer acquisition, managed
Perform[cb] sells customer acquisition on a pay-for-results basis, run for you as a managed service across partners. But no price is published, it is not software you run yourself, and its performance figures are the company's own claims.
Who Perform[cb] is for
- Fits if you want a vendor to run acquisition for you and pay only on results
- Works for agencies that want a partner side as well as an advertiser side
Who Perform[cb] is not for
- Skip it if you want self-serve software, as this is a managed service
- Not for you if you need a price first, as none is published
- Watch out: figures like 52.4% average ROAS growth are the company's own claims
- Too light on detail for anyone comparing tools, with no integrations or plans listed
Why Perform[cb] gets a 1.6
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.
- CValue for moneyNo pricing is published and visitors are sent to a sales conversation, so value sits in the middle by default.
- FFree plan and trialNo free plan or trial is mentioned. You start by talking to sales.
- CFeaturesOutcome-based buying, an agency programme, compliance checks and reporting exist, but it is a managed service and not a tool for running your own program.
- CEase of useSet-up is through sales and the vendor's team, not a product you start using. No store rating is on record.
- CPlatforms and integrationsWeb only, with no integrations or apps listed.

Keep Perform[cb], or make your own?
Keep it
To replace Perform[cb] you would be making phone numbers that change for each visitor so every call is traced to its source. 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: 68 of the 89 other affiliate and referral tools grade higher.
What you could make
- Reports: an app builder makes this well.
What you could not
- Phone numbers that change for each visitor so every call is traced to its source.
- Payouts to partners in many countries, with their tax forms.
- Every click and sale traced back to the right partner.
What this rests on. Perform[cb]’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.
