impact.com
Partnership marketing platform covering affiliate discovery, creator programs, customer referrals, payments and attribution.
Partnership discovery, affiliate/creator/advocate management, commissions, tracking, analytics and enterprise fraud/attribution suite.
Strong operating coverage but setup, ecommerce data alignment and multi-program onboarding can be intensive; role-mixed review population.
List prices and payout entitlements are public; Starter percentage-base ambiguity, add-ons, 12-month terms and implementation costs complicate cost estimates.
Marketplace, ecommerce connectors, API/SAML higher tiers and large independent user review pool; no independent security or fraud-effectiveness audit.

About impact.com
impact.com is a partnership management platform for merchants and brands that recruit publishers, affiliates, creators and advocates to generate measurable sales or referred customers. The platform combines partner discovery, contract setup, creative assets, referral links, attribution, payment operations, commission policies and reporting across several partnership programs. The company advertises a 250,000-plus partner discovery network and payments in 70-plus currencies. Advanced tiers support multi-domain programs, API-based tracking, flexible partner commission terms, influencer campaigns, customer referral programs, fraud tools and multi-touch attribution. Current official pricing presents four distinct buyer segments. Starter is $30/month plus 2.5% of “Revenue” and is restricted to approved ecommerce platforms; the public page does not spell out the chargeable revenue base, so a buyer must verify it in the checkout terms. Starter has a 30-day trial, basic tracking and chat/email support, and no paid add-ons. Essentials is $500/month including up to $2,500/month in processed partner payouts and adds marketplace, full reporting, multi-domain, creator and customer advocate capability. Pro is $2,500/month including up to $14,300/month in partner payouts, plus API tracking, custom commissions, Data Lab, SAML and account success. Enterprise requires a custom quote and includes advanced fraud/risk, white-label partner portal and multi-touch attribution. Essentials and above list optional onboarding services at $250/hour; spending above included partner-payout volume is billed according to actual use. Starter has an ambiguously defined 2.5% revenue charge and restricted ecommerce eligibility; Essentials/Pro involve substantial price increases and potential onboarding costs.
Best for
Ecommerce brands and mature marketing teams coordinating multiple affiliate, creator, retailer and customer-referral programs and sophisticated attribution.

Cons
- −The Starter “2.5% of Revenue” charge lacks a clear revenue-base definition on the public page.
- −Starter is available only for selected ecommerce integrations and excludes paid add-ons.
- −Monthly subscription jumps from $30 plus variable charge to $500 then $2,500 before Enterprise custom pricing.
