Reditus alternatives: which one fits why you are leaving

The right Reditus alternative depends on which part of Reditus you pay for. Reditus runs affiliate and in-app referral programs for B2B SaaS and adds a network of 27,000+ affiliates.

It costs $99 a month on annual billing ($149 monthly) for up to $60K of ARR, and the marketplace listing starts at the $399 Scale Up plan on a 12-month term.

TrackRev ranks partners against your other channels from $29, Rewardful, FirstPromoter and Tolt also start lower, and PartnerStack runs the larger marketplace.

I built TrackRev for exactly this: SaaS affiliate software for indie hackers and small SaaS teams, with link tracking and revenue attribution built in and no limit on tracked revenue. The two-way version is Reditus vs TrackRev.

What Reditus costs and what each plan includes

Reditus's pricing page sells 3 plans, plus a 14-day Growth trial that needs no card and replaced the old free plan.

Each cap counts ARR from referrals and affiliates combined. At $60K that is $5,000 a month of recurring revenue, so a program that outgrows it jumps from $99 to $399 a month.

Automated payouts come with every plan: Reditus charges your card or invoices you, then pays affiliates through PayPal or IBAN, for a fee of 5% on card payments or 2% on invoices.

A Featured Listing that pins you to the top of the marketplace is $150 a month.

Why teams look for a Reditus alternative

The network is the expensive part.

Reditus Growth includes a limited database, and the listing in front of 27,000+ B2B SaaS affiliates needs Scale Up, which makes the entry price for the network $4,788 a year against $1,188 for Growth on yearly billing.

One help article says listings start at Growth, while the pricing page and its pricing help say Scale Up, so get the plan in writing before you buy.

Billing outside Stripe takes developer time. Reditus sizes a full Stripe setup at 30 to 60 minutes, and sends every other processor, Paddle and Chargebee included, through its Payments API.

Its Paddle page puts that route at about 4 hours, limits coupon-code tracking to Stripe, and says partial refunds are unsupported there: any refund rejects the whole commission.

Reditus's installation guide says it supports only B2B SaaS companies, and it tracks 2 channels, affiliates and in-app referrals.

I found no report on its pricing page or in its help center that ranks them against ads, SEO or email, so a team asking which channel pays the most MRR needs a second tool.

5 alternatives compared on price, billing and recruiting

The same program on each plan

Take affiliates who bring in $4,000 and then $12,000 a month of recurring revenue at a 20% commission rate. Reditus reads those as $48K and $144K of ARR, and TrackRev sees $800 and $2,400 of commission, which no plan limits.

At $4,000 the plans run from $29 to $99, and at $12,000 from $29 to $399. Reditus is the only one that asks for a 12-month commitment at that size. TrackRev stays at $29 at any volume.

A program with $50,000 a month of referred revenue, which is $600K of ARR, would sit on Reditus Enterprise from $799 a month.

TrackRev, for partner revenue next to every other channel

TrackRev Indie costs $29 a month, and every paid plan is affiliate software with link tracking and revenue attribution built in.

Indie covers 1 workspace and 1 tracked domain for a solo owner, and TrackRev Growth is $299 a year for up to 10 workspaces and domains with unlimited team members. Neither plan caps the partner commission or revenue it tracks.

Revenue syncs from Stripe, Paddle Billing, Polar, Lemon Squeezy, Creem and Dodo Payments.

Commissions can be recurring, one-time or multi-tier, paid as cash or credit, held for 0 to 180 days per program (the default is 0) and reversed on refunds and disputes.

Partners get a white-label portal and upload W-9 or W-8 forms when they join.

A partner's link is a tagged TrackRev link, so one channel report ranks affiliates, newsletter, YouTube and paid ads by MRR under 3 credit rules: last-touch, first-touch or linear. The revenue attribution page shows it.

The free plan covers link tracking only, at 50 links and 1,000 tracked events a month, and the affiliate program and revenue figures start on Indie.

Choose TrackRev when partners are 1 channel of several, when you bill through Paddle, Polar or Lemon Squeezy, or when Reditus's $99 yearly floor is too much for a small program.

Recruiting is outbound, since TrackRev has no marketplace or affiliate database, and payouts are a PayPal or Wise CSV that you send and mark paid.

PartnerStack, for recruiting at volume

PartnerStack shows no prices in its plan cards, but the pricing data behind the page lists Launch at $1,000 a month and Growth at $1,520 on a yearly term, with Enterprise on custom pricing.

Launch includes marketplace access, and its homepage claims 115,000+ active partners and 600+ B2B brands.

Go with it over Reditus when recruiting volume matters more than the bill, which at $1,000 a month is about ten times the $99 Reditus Growth rate. See PartnerStack vs TrackRev.

Rewardful, for a Stripe-first tool

Rewardful meters affiliate-attributed revenue. Rewardful Starter costs $49 for $7,500 a month with 1 campaign and 2 team members, Rewardful Growth costs $99 for $15,000, and Rewardful Enterprise starts at $149 and covers $30,000 on its entry tier.

Every plan has a 0% transaction fee, coupon tracking and self-referral detection, and the branded portal and custom domain wait for Growth.

Instead of a marketplace it has an Affiliate Finder that searches the web and spends 1 credit each time you reveal a result. It fits when referred revenue stays under $7,500 a month and you would rather recruit affiliates yourself.

FirstPromoter, for more billing systems

FirstPromoter's Starter plan is $49 for $5,000 a month of affiliate revenue, 1,000 affiliates and 3 campaigns. FirstPromoter Business is $99 for $15,000 with unlimited affiliates and campaigns plus a custom domain, and FirstPromoter Enterprise is $149 beyond that.

Its billing list covers Stripe, Paddle, Chargebee, Recurly and Braintree, and Reditus sends every one of those except Stripe through its API.

Every plan has multi-tier commissions across up to 3 levels, mass payouts by PayPal, Wise, Stripe, crypto or bank transfer, and W-9 and W-8BEN collection, while Managed Auto Payouts sit on Enterprise.

Take it when billing runs through Recurly or Braintree, or when affiliates should earn on the partners they recruit.

Tolt, for a $69 start and payouts that file 1099s

Tolt prices on revenue earned from affiliates. Tolt Basic is $69 for $10,000 a month with manual payouts, Tolt Growth is $99 for $20,000, and Tolt Pro is $199 for $50,000.

Growth sends the money through PayPal, Wise, local bank, crypto or wire at a 2% processing fee, creates invoices for affiliates, collects W-9 and W-8 forms and files 1099s. It lists Stripe, Paddle and Chargebee.

It suits a US-heavy program that wants tax paperwork handled and stays under $20,000 a month. See Tolt vs TrackRev.

Where Reditus is still the better pick

Reditus wins when finding affiliates is the bottleneck. Its Scale Up listing, vetted database and 5 monthly AI searches exist to fill a program that has few partners, and TrackRev offers none of them.

It also fits when you want someone else to run the payouts or an in-app referral widget beside the affiliate program.

Annual plans include free white-glove migration with a 30-day cookie transition window, and Reditus sells managed launch, recruitment and management services. If affiliates are the only channel you will measure, TrackRev's attribution sits unused.

Moving a program off Reditus

• Time it to your term. Growth on monthly billing cancels anytime, while annual plans run 12 months and stay active until the period ends, so check your renewal date first.
• Export your affiliates. TrackRev's import wizard has a Reditus preset that reads a CSV with an email per affiliate, reuses referral codes as link codes, and writes each unpaid balance as 1 carried-over commission, with past clicks, sales and revenue as opening balances. I found no Reditus documentation of a self-serve export, so ask its support for the file.
• Connect billing and add TrackRev's tracking beside Reditus's script. Run both through your cookie window, which Reditus says is typically 30 to 90 days, and pay each commission from 1 system only.
• Settle the cycle. Reditus creates payouts on the 1st of each month, and with manual payouts you get 1 month to process them, so finish that cycle before you cancel.
• Ask affiliates to replace links that point at Reditus, then remove its script from your site header or Google Tag Manager, along with the gr('track', 'conversion') sign-up snippet.

Check these before you cancel Reditus

Run one test purchase through your real checkout. Click a test affiliate's link, pay with the Stripe test card 4242 4242 4242 4242, confirm the commission lands on that affiliate, then refund it and confirm it reverses.

Reditus's payment tracking guide says full refunds reverse a commission and partial refunds shrink it in proportion on its Stripe connection, so match that.

TrackRev reverses refunds and disputes from Stripe webhooks, and the refunds and upgrades post covers the edge cases.

Ask how the tool remembers the click.

WebKit's tracking prevention page says Safari Intelligent Tracking Prevention deletes cookies created in JavaScript after 7 days without user interaction, so a script-written cookie from a day-1 click can be gone by a day-9 purchase.

Reditus's tracking script guide says a click places a cookie named gr_id for a duration you set, and it does not say whether a script or a server writes it, so ask.

TrackRev logs the click on the server at the tracked redirect, and the Safari ITP post covers what that changes for SaaS conversions.

TrackRev's free tier is enough to test redirects and click logging, while the affiliate program starts on Indie at $29 a month. Pricing lists the plans.
