TradeTracker report card
Weak · out of 4.0 · graded Nov 13, 2026
Best for a publisher network for European-style affiliate marketing
TradeTracker is an affiliate network linking advertisers with publishers worldwide, with real-attribution models and pay on results. But no fees are published, access is by application and brochure request, and the site splits by country so terms differ by region.
Who TradeTracker is for
- Fits if you are an advertiser who wants access to a ready publisher network
- Works for publishers who want to join programs through one network
Who TradeTracker is not for
- Skip it if you want a price list, as network and platform fees are not stated
- Not for you if you want self-serve software, as access is by application
- Watch out: the site is split by country, so programs and terms differ by region
- Too light on detail for tool comparison, with no integrations listed
Why TradeTracker gets a 1.8
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.
- CValue for moneyNo advertiser fees are published, only that commission is paid on results, so value sits in the middle by default.
- FFree plan and trialNo free plan or trial is mentioned. Access is by application.
- BFeaturesA publisher network, attribution models, publisher tools, video ads and account management cover the core job of a network.
- CEase of useJoining means an application, a brochure request and account management, not a product you start using. No store rating is on record.
- CPlatforms and integrationsWeb only, with no integrations listed on the pages read.

Keep TradeTracker, or make your own?
Keep it
To replace TradeTracker 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.
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.
- Connections that pull numbers from dozens of other services.
- The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
What this rests on. TradeTracker’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.
What is TradeTracker?
TradeTracker is an affiliate marketing network that connects advertisers with publishers across many countries through its own tracking software. Advertisers pay commission on results, and publishers get tracking, reporting and payouts through one login. It also offers attribution models beyond last click.
Worth knowing
- No fees are published for advertisers; access is through an application and a brochure request.
- The advertiser page only says commission is paid on results; network and platform fees are not stated.
- The site is split by country, so programs and terms differ by region.
Key features
- Network of publishers
- Advertisers reach affiliates who apply to join, and keep the final say on which affiliates and which transactions they accept.
- Real Attribution models
- Offers first touchpoint, last touchpoint, time-decay, linear and position-based models plus a custom weighted model, rewarding publishers along the path.
- Pay on results
- The advertiser page describes a no-win-no-pay model: commission is set per campaign and paid only when results are achieved.
- Publisher tools
- Publishers get creatives, reporting filters and tracking through to invoicing and payment, using a single login across the markets they work in.
- Video ads
- A performance-based video advertising product was announced in December 2025 for advertisers and publishers.
- Account management
- Advertisers who pass the application process are said to get a dedicated account manager.
