Refport
Refport is affiliate software for SaaS teams that tracks referrals through paying subscriptions and automates partner payouts. It links referrals, attribution, conversions, commissions and payouts in an auditable data trail. Its Stripe connection calculates commissions from Stripe revenue; Shopify sales ingestion, REST API access and webhooks support other billing setups. Payouts can go through Stripe Connect or PayPal. Configurable fraud rules include duplicate customer-email detection, suspicious-domain monitoring, blocked traffic sources and exclusions across programs. The 14-day trial requires no credit card and includes paid features except payouts, with limits of 500 links, 10,000 clicks per month, one custom domain, three Partner Groups, one Program and three seats. The free plan includes 100 links, 5,000 monthly clicks and one seat. Starter costs $49 a month and includes two Programs, three seats and a $10,000 monthly Partner Revenue limit. Refport provides web and API access and a partner portal. The maker says adding its SDK and connecting Stripe takes about five minutes.
