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 | Crossbeam | Dub Partners |
|---|---|---|
| Consider for | B2B SaaS alliance, RevOps and channel sales teams wanting to identify shared accounts and accelerate co-selling. | SaaS teams and creator/partner programs seeking link-level attribution, APIs, automated payouts and a branded partner ecosystem connected to Stripe. |
| Paid entry / monthly | $0/month | $90/month |
| Billing detail | Free $0 forever for limited single-partner mapping; Connector is $4,800/year for one full access seat, with additional seats priced $1,800/user/year. Supernode and Enterprise are quote-based. | Dub Partners Business: $90/month on the monthly selector. Yearly billing advertises a 10% discount; Dub Links pricing is a separate product context. |
| Free plan | Yes | No |
| Free plan detail | Free includes up to three full-access seats, three standard populations, basic one-partner matching and limited account mapping list previews. Free has stronger access limitations than paid tiers. | No permanent free Dub Partners plan shown. A 14-day free trial is advertised for paid plans. |
| Commissions | Crossbeam provides partner account intelligence and co-sell workflows, not affiliate commission or international payout processing. Partner-attributed pipeline reporting should not be confused with a commission payment system. | Supports lead, sale and other partner reward outcomes; flat-rate and revenue-share incentives, program bounties and dual-sided customer/referrer rewards are documented. Advanced expands the available reward structures. |
| Tracking method | Maps shared customer and prospect accounts with partners, creates opportunity segments, supports partner-sourced pipeline, Deal Navigator, shared lists, ecosystem intelligence and CRM insights. Access to list creation/export varies sharply by tier. | Integrates Dub's link attribution and conversion events. Native Stripe integration tracks recurring or one-time purchases, free trial lead events and refunds, updating commissions for refunded transactions. Verify your specific checkout and event identity flow. |
| Payouts | No native public claim of managed affiliate bank payouts or payouts ledger was identified. Use separate PRM/revenue or financial systems for contractual commissions. | Automatic global partner payouts and tax compliance are promoted. Payout fees are 5% for Business and Advanced; 3% at Enterprise, according to the public pricing table. Business payout-volume allowance is $2,500/month; Advanced is $15,000/month. Recipient country/payment method eligibility varies. |
| Integrations | Official site lists Salesforce, HubSpot, Snowflake, Pipedrive and CRM/data warehouse connectors, plus partner and GTM workflows. Validate data-sharing policies and partner consent. | Official integrations include Stripe, Shopify, Segment, Intercom, Zapier and Make. No independently confirmed native Paddle Billing connector found in reviewed official sources; custom API implementation may be required. |
| API available | Yes | Yes |
| Consider the limitation | Brands only seeking coupon-based ecommerce affiliate links or automatic creator commissions. | Small affiliates programs needing a no-fee payout route, Paddle-native billing out of the box, or a low monthly partner payout allowance without plan upgrades. |
