## Pricing

TradeTracker's current pricing could not be confirmed from its own site.


## 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.

## Good for

- Advertisers wanting an existing publisher network in Europe and beyond
- Publishers monetizing content with brand programs
- Merchants who want attribution 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.

## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 1.8 out of 4**, graded Nov 13, 2026. 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.

- **Value for money: C.** No advertiser fees are published, only that commission is paid on results, so value sits in the middle by default.
- **Free plan and trial: F.** No free plan or trial is mentioned. Access is by application.
- **Features: B.** A publisher network, attribution models, publisher tools, video ads and account management cover the core job of a network.
- **Ease of use: C.** Joining means an application, a brochure request and account management, not a product you start using. No store rating is on record.
- **Platforms and integrations: C.** Web only, with no integrations listed on the pages read.

## Keep it, 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.

- 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.
- You could not: Connections that pull numbers from dozens of other services.
- You could not: The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
