Questions, answered plainly.

$99 once. You get the software to run on your own server, a license key and 1 year of updates. After that year you keep everything you installed; updates are optional.

Starter, Business and Scale, from $49 a month, cancel any time. Every plan includes all 12 fraud rules and the full ledger; higher plans add postbacks, usage-based commissions and volume.

No. Cloud plans are a flat monthly price and self-host is a one-time $99. The commissions your affiliates earn stay yours; growth never changes what the tracker costs.

14 days on cloud, no card needed to look around. If you're switching from another tracker, switch links start a 30-day trial instead.

Yes. 14 days for self-host, no questions. Cloud is month to month, so you just cancel and owe nothing further.

Cloud is month to month with no annual requirement. Self-host keeps running on your server even after the update year ends, so the decision to stay or move is always yours.

You pay the difference prorated for the rest of the month. Downgrades apply at the next renewal so you keep what you paid for.

Twelve checks run on every conversion: self-referrals, mismatched devices, disposable email domains, chargeback history, impossible timing, duplicate cards and more. Each rule can hold a payout for review or pass it.

Twelve automated rules on every plan, watching for the abusive signup, attribution and commission patterns merchants complain about most: coupon-site junk signups, code scraping, attribution hijacking. It is not an add-on tier; Starter gets the same protection as Scale.

Yes. Commissions are screened by the fraud rules and held for your review rather than auto-approved, so scraped-code orders can be caught before payment. Every decision is recorded in an append-only ledger, so the evidence trail stays.

A payout run leaves them out until you release the hold. If a hold lands after the batch, approval stops the money. An upheld hold reverses the commission with a clean ledger record rather than erasing history.

No. Money rows are append-only. Refunds and upheld fraud holds post reversing entries, so the ledger always balances and history is never rewritten.

You run a payout batch when you choose. The run nets out refunds, checks tax forms, holds anything under fraud review, and produces a file you can pay from. Approval steps are optional per plan.

No. Every cloud plan runs payouts the same way, with refund netting and tax-form checks. Nothing about paying affiliates requires an upgrade.

Refunds are netted against exactly the commissions they should reduce, using the double-entry ledger. No affiliate is overpaid because a refund landed in the wrong place, and no failed payout vanishes without a trace.

Yes. Payout runs include automatic tax-form checks, so an affiliate missing paperwork is caught during the run, not by your manual spreadsheet review later.

Stripe, Paddle, Lemon Squeezy, Chargebee and Recurly out of the box. Self-host includes Lemon Squeezy natively; cloud connects the rest by webhook.

Your affiliate roster and referral history stay. The tracker works across five processors, so losing or changing a billing provider does not wipe your program.

Purchases. Conversions are tied to real payment events through the billing integrations, not to fragile checkout scripts, so you reward revenue, not signups.

Yes. Renewals are credited automatically from subscription payment events, refunds on those renewals are netted in payouts, and every occurrence lands in the ledger.

The append-only double-entry ledger is the single source of truth; entries are never silently rewritten. When numbers look wrong you trace the full history instead of trusting a rebuilt report.

Yes. Export your partner list from your current tool and the import maps emails, referral codes and commission rates into a review queue you approve row by row.

With one redirect rule on your side, yes. Every import ships with the exact redirect advice for your old link format, so no partner loses credit mid-flight.

The tracking script is one line. Most programs track their first conversion the same day. Migrations from another tracker take an afternoon.

Self-host keeps every record on your own server and we never see it. Cloud runs under our published data terms, with analytics cookies gated behind consent and a full GDPR notice.

You do. Self-host means your server, your database. Even on cloud, referral links and assets run on your domain, and there is no network holding your program hostage.

The 14-day trial lets you run real tracking and payout flows against your actual processor before committing. Self-host buyers additionally get the 14-day refund window.
