Hi,

I am just beginning with the Referral/Affiliate program for my company, we offer apps that are listed on multiple e-commerce platforms, Shopify being the prominent one. We are facing issues in finding a way to track the referrals of our partners but the challenge is that our website won’t be the source, it will be Shopify.

I am sure there’s a way to it, but its just that I need to find one. Considering we don’t want to build one ourselves.

If anyone has suggestions, would love to hear from you.

Thanks

Hi @Harlayy ,

I recently had to look into this too - we ended up going with Shoffi. It’s one of the most affordable options and pretty popular among app builders. Another popular one is Mantle, but it’s pricier, and from what I’ve heard from other developers, there was a period late last year when the tracking just wasn’t working at all.

JIC - let’s partner up if the niches are complementary;)

Hey @AlphaSale_Kathy ,

Yep, I checked out both Shoffi and Mantle -super cool stuff, but for us it’ll be hella expensive since we’ve got a bunch of apps on Shopify.

As for partnering up, totally open to it! What’s the best way to connect with you and chat more?
