## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace Solid Affiliate 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: 68 of the 89 other affiliate and referral tools grade higher. It costs $374 a year.

- You could make: Reports: an app builder makes this well.
- You could not: Payouts to partners in many countries, with their tax forms.
- You could not: Every click and sale traced back to the right partner.
