Documented facts, not a quality ranking. Pricing and rights depend on the selected plan.
| Decision criteria | Club (formerly Brandbassador) | Affiliatly |
|---|---|---|
| Consider for | DTC and ecommerce brands seeking a coordinated ambassador community, product seeding, creator rewards, discount-code affiliate sales and UGC. | Budget-conscious online stores testing a trackable affiliate program and wanting simple coupon/link attribution. |
| Paid entry / monthly | Not verified | $0/month |
| Billing detail | Brandbassador rebranded to Club in 2026. Current Club pricing is quote-based through vendor demos; no trustworthy flat monthly starting rate was established on the current official site. | Free plan $0 up to 50 tracked orders; Starter $16/month for up to 50 affiliates with unlimited tracked orders; Advanced $24/month for up to 200 affiliates. |
| Free plan | No | Yes |
| Free plan detail | A vendor ROI calculator is free, but this is not a free brand subscription. Creator participation and the brand platform's commercial license have different rules. | A permanent free tier is publicly listed, with a cap of 50 tracked orders. It should not be interpreted as unlimited affiliate transactions. |
| Commissions | Club offers affiliate links, individual discount codes, commission tiers and rewards for ambassador missions, including cash, gift cards, products and referral/sales activity. | Merchants can set percentage or fixed-order commissions with configurable commission rules. The primary use case is ecommerce order attribution, not recurring SaaS billing. |
| Tracking method | Creator/community recruitment, segmented ambassador groups, mission-based user-generated content, influencer activation, sales/discount code tracking, dashboards and participation analytics. | Affiliate links, email, coupon and QR attribution with affiliate dashboards, purchase reports, marketing assets and configurable program settings. |
| Payouts | The current platform promotes automated brand ambassador commission payments, gift cards and product seeding. Actual payment rails, countries, tax obligations and vendor fees require account-level confirmation. | Vendor lists gift cards and store rewards, and PayPal Mass Payout on Advanced. Actual transfer charges and affiliate-region support depend on payout providers. |
| Integrations | Vendor discusses ecommerce store integrations including Shopify and a branded ambassador portal. Additional carts or billing providers should not be presumed natively supported without documentation. | Official integrations list Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, Squarespace, Ecwid and others; custom stores require implementation validation. |
| API available | No | No |
| Consider the limitation | An editor looking for a second independent active Brandbassador platform after the rename, or a B2B SaaS partner CRM. | Subscription SaaS merchants requiring native recurring billing commission logic or enterprise channel deal registration. |
