Is there a free plan, or do I have to pay from day one?
Refersion offers a free 'Marketplace' tier that lets you list an offer so affiliates can view and apply to your program. Paid plans start at $39/month (Launch), $129/month (Growth), and $599/month (Scale), with annual billing options that save 20–26%.
Are there extra fees on top of the monthly subscription — what will this really cost me?
Yes — every paid plan charges a percentage of affiliate-generated sales on top of the monthly fee: 3% on Launch, 2% on Growth, and 1% on Scale. The Scale annual plan waives the transaction fee up to $100k/month in GMV, so high-volume stores should factor these usage-based charges carefully before choosing a plan.
How long does setup take — can I do it myself without a developer?
Refersion is designed for fast, no-code setup directly within Shopify. Their team walks you through each step so you can start tracking affiliate sales, managing commissions, and automating payouts in minutes. The app is Shopify Plus certified and merchants consistently praise its smooth onboarding experience.
Does it integrate with Klaviyo, PayPal, Mailchimp, and my other marketing tools?
Yes — Refersion natively integrates with PayPal, Klaviyo, Yotpo, Stripe, Mailchimp, and Google Analytics. The Growth plan and above unlocks 30+ email and marketing integrations, and Refersion also supports 2,000+ app integrations via Zapier plus a RESTful API for custom connections.
How flexible are the commission structures — can I pay affiliates differently per product or per tier?
Refersion supports a wide range of commission options including percentage-of-sale, flat rate, by SKU, tiered performance bonuses, royalties, and maturation periods. Custom commissions per individual affiliate and per product are available, with SKU-level and new-vs-returning customer commissions unlocked on higher-tier plans.
Does it work for international or multi-currency stores?
Multi-currency support is available, but only on the Growth plan ($129/month) and above — it is not included in the entry-level Launch plan. Affiliate payouts can be made via PayPal, ACH, bank transfers, and other methods, and the platform tracks sales using first-party data with GDPR and CCPA compliance.
What do other merchants say about support quality and overall reliability?
Refersion holds a 4.7-star rating across 483 Shopify App Store reviews, with 87% being 5-star. Merchants frequently highlight responsive, proactive customer support by name. A minority of negative reviews cite the pricing as high for smaller stores and note that the affiliate-facing dashboard has had limited mobile optimization in the past.
