The report card
Best for affiliate programs on WooCommerce stores
Solid Affiliate is a WordPress plugin built mainly for WooCommerce that tracks referrals and pays affiliates by PayPal, store credit or by hand. It has no free plan or trial, the first-year price is a limited offer, and fraud tools and the white-label area are only on the $749 Pro plan.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | C | Starter is $374 a year for 1 site at renewal, about $31 a month, right at the edge of the cheaper quarter of affiliate tools. The first year is $149.60, and it is called limited. |
| Free plan and trial | F | No free plan and no trial, only a 30-day money-back guarantee, which does not count as free. |
| Features | C | Tracking, flexible commissions, PayPal and manual payouts, and data export. It is built around WooCommerce, and lifetime commissions, the fraud suite and the white-label area are Pro only. |

| Platforms and integrations | C | Web only, inside WordPress. The listing shows two integrations, WooCommerce and PayPal, and no API. |

Who Solid Affiliate is for

Who it is not for
- Not for you if you are not on WooCommerce, since the vendor says other platforms need a different tool
- Skip it if you want to try it first, because there is no free plan or trial
- Pricey if you are one store, at $374 a year after the first year for 1 site
- Watch out: Starter and Expert lock features, and only Pro has the fraud suite, lifetime commissions and white-label area
- Watch out: the lower first-year prices are described as limited, and renewals are at the regular price

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 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.
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.
What this rests on. Solid Affiliate’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.
