About AffRef
What is AffRef?
AffRef is an affiliate marketing platform built for Shopify, SaaS, and mobile app businesses. It lets you track one-time and recurring commissions across every checkout—whether it's a one-time Shopify sale, a recurring SaaS subscription, or an app store subscription. The platform was created by an operator with 13 years of experience in ecommerce and SaaS, after dealing with clunky, expensive affiliate tools.
Problem it solves
Traditional affiliate platforms charge 2-5% of every affiliate sale, which eats into your margins as your program scales. Many also require sales calls, custom integrations, and lengthy setup. AffRef eliminates those pain points with flat monthly pricing (no percentage fees), a unified hub for all your brands and platforms, and a 5-minute SDK integration for mobile apps.
Who is it for?
AffRef is ideal for operators running ecommerce stores on Shopify, SaaS products, or mobile apps (iOS and Android) who want a simple, affordable affiliate solution. It's not for large enterprises that require dedicated account management or complex custom integrations with legacy systems.
Real use cases
Use AffRef to manage affiliate programs across multiple brands, track recurring commissions for subscription-based products, and pay affiliates via Stripe Connect or PayPal. The platform supports Shopify, Stripe, Lemon Squeezy, RevenueCat, and custom platforms via API.
