Landing Platform vs Refersion: affiliates plus the whole store
Refersion tracks affiliate and influencer sales for online brands. Landing runs your affiliate programme inside the same system as your checkout, subscriptions, email, CRM and reporting, so each affiliate order sits on the customer record with everything else.
Landing suits you if
- You sell online and want affiliate orders on the customer record
- You want no percentage of affiliate sales on your software bill
- You want affiliates, email and checkout from one login
Where affiliate costs rise with success.
A good month for your affiliates should not be a bigger month for your software bill.
A cut of affiliate sales
Refersion lists a monthly fee plus a percentage of affiliate-driven sales on its Launch and Growth plans.
Orders in two places
Affiliate orders live in Refersion while the customer lives in your store, your email tool and your CRM.
Payouts off to the side
Commissions are worked out in one tool and paid through another, then reconciled against the store.

Switching is our job, not yours.
We move you over one tool a month, against success criteria we agree with you up front. You don't pay until we prove each one is ready.
We map your programme
We go through your programmes, commission rules, affiliates and how you pay out, and the tools around them. Then we write down what "ready" means, for example every affiliate able to sign in and last month's commissions matching.
We move Refersion across
We move affiliates, commission rates, coupon codes, order history and payout records across while Refersion keeps tracking, and run both until the commissions agree.
You check it, then you pay
You check it on real sales: a referral tracked, a commission worked out, a payout ready to send. Billing starts only once it meets the criteria you signed off. Then we move the next tool, one a month.
But we already use Refersion.
Fair. Here are the questions online brands ask us most.
Do we pay a percentage of affiliate sales on Landing?
No. The price is your Builders and Members and the contacts you market to. Affiliate sales can grow without the software bill growing with them.
Do affiliate coupon codes work at our checkout?
Yes. Each affiliate can carry their own coupon code, and when the checkout is Landing the code is credited to the order itself, with no separate tracking to wire up.
What if our store runs on Shopify?
Landing syncs your Shopify catalogue, and a server-to-server conversions API credits affiliate sales from a checkout outside Landing. We set it up with you as part of the switch.
How are affiliates paid?
Commissions wait out a holdback period you choose, so returns can be clawed back at the original rate, then pay out by Stripe Connect transfer.
