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 | Reditus | AffiliateWP |
|---|---|---|
| Consider for | Established B2B SaaS teams on Stripe who want affiliate recruitment as well as tracking, or technically capable teams integrating another payment processor via API. | WordPress stores that want to run an affiliate program within their own installation and need WooCommerce product attribution. |
| Paid entry / monthly | $149/month | Not verified |
| Billing detail | Growth: $149/month month-to-month, or $99/month with annual billing. Scale Up: $399/month billed annually only. Enterprise: from $799/month billed annually. The pricing page describes annual affiliate-program ARR allowances. | The live pricing page lists introductory first-year ANNUAL licenses: Personal $149.50 (normal $299/year), Plus $199.50 (normal $399/year), Pro $299.50 (normal $599/year). Do not interpret these as monthly rates; promotions and renewal prices differ. |
| Free plan | No | No |
| Free plan detail | No permanent free plan. Growth offers a 14-day trial without a credit card. | No free version and no free trial; vendor lists a 14-day refund guarantee for new purchases. |
| Commissions | Subscription-aware recurring commissions, multiple affiliate tiers, customer referral rewards and fraud rules are documented. Stripe payment events support handling refunds, upgrades and downgrades. | Percentage or fixed commissions for eligible WordPress checkouts; recurring, lifetime and tiered/multi-tier commission workflows are Pro-level features. Validate plugin-level support for refunds and renewals. |
| Tracking method | Setup uses a tracking script, signup snippet and Stripe connection or custom Payments API. Stripe coupon tracking is a Stripe-specific native feature, not a blanket claim for Paddle or Chargebee. | WordPress referral links, coupon codes, WooCommerce order attribution and site-owned affiliate dashboard; not a direct integration with Paddle Billing subscriptions. |
| Payouts | Growth lists automated affiliate payouts. The vendor's pricing and help pages should be checked for actual transfer methods, any payment-processing charges and countries before promising a merchant's affiliate withdrawal experience. | Vendor documents international payouts, Stripe, PayPal and store-credit options with zero platform transaction fees; external processing charges and regional eligibility may still apply. |
| Integrations | Stripe connects natively; Paddle, Chargebee and PayPal are supported via the Reditus Payments API, requiring developer integration. The vendor estimates about four hours of developer time for a typical Paddle integration; that is not a native Paddle connector. | WordPress and WooCommerce, Easy Digital Downloads and supported membership/course/form plugins. Other hosted ecommerce platforms require a different tool. |
| API available | Yes | No |
| Consider the limitation | Very early startups needing a permanent free plan, teams requiring zero-code Paddle Billing, or buyers expecting network marketplace listing in the entry Growth plan. | Shopify-only merchants and buyers expecting the advanced Pro commission options on the cheapest annual license. |
