About

Simple Affiliate runs an in-house affiliate program inside your Shopify store, without a third-party network. Customers, creators, influencers, and partners sign in with your store's customer accounts and share referral links or discount codes. Merchants set commission rules by product, variant, collection, and discount, configure tiered commissions, and track each referred order. Autopay sends payouts through Stripe monthly or on demand and facilitates Form 1099-K and Form 1099-NEC for eligible U.S. affiliates. Affiliates receive their full commissions, while merchants pay processing fees on top. PayPal, store credit, and manual payouts are also available. Pricing is a flat monthly fee with no percentage of referred sales: Starter is free for up to 10 affiliates, and paid plans are $19, $39, and $59 per month. Simple Affiliate works alongside Shopify Collabs. It has a 4.9 rating from 124 Shopify App Store reviews.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • 1. Ease of use 2. Generous pricing plans 3. Helpful support 4. Possibility to extend free trial
  • TapAffiliate has constantly been improving its affiliation program options. We can add so many rules that can be motivating for affiliates and it is just a pleasure to offer 1Office affiliates additional bonus structures. Also their knowledge base is terrific with technical specs that can help you to get affiliation marketing to the next level.
  • Onboarding is easy. Setting up programs and their structure is easy. Filtering and extracting data is easy and well structured.
  • It does almost everything that we really need for managing our affiliate program! We use it to onboard new affiliates, watch metrics monthly, and settle payouts. It's also incredibly affordable!
  • It was not for us, but they forced us to check their demo. We needed network features. This case shows what type of company it is and the lack of empathy and closeness, all they want is your money.

Cons

  • Payouts are not automated (yet, the support promised this will happen later). For now I can download the payout files and process the payments.
  • Lack of marketing asset options for Affiliates. For example LinkedIn. Missing terms of service module for affiliate marketing purposes.
  • The asset section is not great - too many limitations on size and formats. Help documentation should be split for program owner and affiliates. The lowest plan service is poor, only limited to chat and email. Sometimes that makes it difficult to describe and address the issue. Better email triggers would be a huge plus.
  • The cons might be that some of the features are a bit behind a few competitors, but their customer support makes up for that — always willing to work through any hurdles that I have.
  • They forced us to introduce the credit card in order to be able to check all their features, even when we asked specifically that we needed network features before that.
