Refersion Comparison 2026

For stores that are more than one storefront

Refersion is built around Shopify and does that well. It gets awkward the moment your program is not only Shopify — a second platform, a marketplace, a mobile app, or partners driving traffic that never touches your store.

Where Affclix Wins
  • Four ecommerce platforms, not one. Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce and Magento run inside a single program with one partner list and one payout ledger.
  • Traffic that never reaches your store still counts. Server-to-server postbacks attribute app installs, lead forms and offline confirmations that a store-app integration cannot see.
  • Fraud scoring before payout. Bot, datacentre and proxy traffic flagged and cappable, rather than discovered when orders are refunded.
  • Predictable cost as you scale. Plan-based pricing rather than a fee that grows with every order you process.
  • Coupon and offline attribution for influencers and creators who never share a tracked link.
  • Product feeds and deeplinks, so affiliates can link straight to a product rather than your homepage.
Where Refersion Competes
  • The deepest Shopify integration in the category. If you are Shopify-only and always will be, that tight coupling is genuinely convenient.
  • Their own creator marketplace is well established for consumer brands looking to recruit publishers quickly.
  • Install-and-go setup inside the Shopify admin, with almost nothing to configure.
  • Familiar to Shopify agencies, so an agency partner may already know it well.

Verdict: If your program is one Shopify store and will stay that way, Refersion is a reasonable choice. The moment a second platform, an app or offline conversions enter the picture, a store-app integration is the wrong shape.

Switching from Refersion: common questions

Does AffClix work with Shopify?

Yes, and also with WooCommerce, BigCommerce and Magento — inside one program with a single partner list and payout ledger, rather than one program per storefront.

Do you charge per order?

No. Pricing is plan-based on tracked volume, so cost does not rise with every order the way a per-conversion fee does.

Can I track influencers who do not use links?

Yes, through coupon-code attribution. Orders using a creator's code are attributed to them even when no tracked link was ever clicked.

What about app installs or offline sales?

Both are supported through server-to-server postbacks. That is the main structural gap in a store-app integration: if the conversion never touches the storefront, the app cannot see it.

How long does migration take?
