Total cost, not list price
Platform fee, percent of revenue, payout fees and seat limits are recorded separately, so you can compare what a program really costs.
Documented facts, not a quality ranking. Pricing and rights depend on the selected plan.
| Decision criteria | Tolt | PartnerStack |
|---|---|---|
| Consider for | SaaS teams on the documented billing platforms that want branded portals and configurable recurring commission workflows. | B2B SaaS teams running affiliate, referral or reseller partnerships; Spark suits small Stripe-based trials with existing partners, while paid plans target growing partner ecosystems. |
| Paid entry / monthly | $69/month | Quote only |
| Billing detail | Basic: $69/month. Annual billing pricing is not verified. | Spark: $0/month subscription plus 10% processing on partner commissions paid. Launch, Growth and Enterprise subscription prices are quote-based. |
| Free plan | No | Yes |
| Free plan detail | No permanent free plan is listed. All plans advertise a 14 day trial without a credit card. | Spark is a genuine $0 monthly subscription tier, but it is not fee-free: 10% applies to commissions paid. Spark is limited to one user, basic offers and Stripe sale tracking; PartnerStack Network access and full CRM integrations require an upgraded plan. |
| Commissions | Commission flows can reward payments, including subscription renewals, or signups. Fixed and percentage rewards can vary by partner, group or plan, with automatic, delayed or manual approval. | Spark provides basic commission offers with Stripe sale tracking. The paid platform documents flat or percentage and event-based rewards, recurring commissions tied to subscription renewals and configurable reward programs. Confirm advanced commission options in the quotation. |
| Tracking method | Partner referral links and unique partner coupons support attribution. A unique partner coupon can identify referrals without a link; a program wide coupon does not identify a specific partner. | Spark: referral links and simple sale tracking via Stripe. The full PartnerStack product adds affiliate links, lead and deal registration, CRM-connected attribution, and event-based milestone tracking; exact entitlements depend on the plan. |
| Payouts | Basic provides manual payouts. Growth and higher offer automatic payouts with a 2% processing fee. | Spark automates partner payouts with a 10% processing fee on paid commissions. The full platform supports approved commissions, consolidated invoices and global withdrawal routes such as bank/direct deposit, Stripe and PayPal. Currency, eligibility, provider and contract fees should be confirmed. |
| Integrations | Official setup guides document Stripe, Paddle Billing, Paddle Classic and Chargebee. Check the guide for your billing version before deployment. | Spark explicitly offers Stripe sale tracking. The full platform documents CRM connections including Salesforce and HubSpot and billing integrations such as Stripe and Chargebee; API and integration access depend on the commercial plan. Native Paddle Billing compatibility is not verified. |
| API available | Yes | Yes |
| Consider the limitation | Teams requiring automatic payouts on the entry plan or a price unaffected by affiliate generated revenue. | Teams needing zero commission processing fees, the PartnerStack Network on Spark or predictable published prices for the full platform. |
