Curated affiliate management for SaaS

A tribe,
not a network.

The 1% of partners drive 90% of the revenue. We find the right partners, sign them, nurture them — and protect the program from the rest.

The challenge

Most SaaS founders have concluded affiliate marketing doesn't work for SaaS. They have reasons.

If you've heard "affiliate" and reached for the door, you're in the right place. Here's what your peers have already said:

"It's just paying commission on revenue we'd already win."

The incrementality fear

"Last time it was coupon spam and bargain hunters."

The category baggage

"Show me a SaaS logo, not Shopify-store logos."

The credibility test
Done right

Three things compound.

When the program is run as a tribe and not a network, the channel earns its keep three ways at once.

01

Reach New Audiences

Leverage trusted voices in your niche to unlock new markets and drive more sales.

02

Scale Efficiently

Turn affiliates into your on-demand sales force. No extra effort or headcount required.

03

Reduce CAC

Pay only for performance — your budget works smarter, not harder.

The work

Find. Sign. Nurture. Protect.

In SaaS, 1% of partners drive 90% of revenue. The rest is noise — or worse, parasites collecting commission on customers you'd already won. Here's how we run the program.

01

Find

We don't recruit thousands. We hunt the right partners — the YouTubers, the newsletters, the agencies, the integrators — that fit your ICP and convert.

02

Sign

We negotiate terms tuned to SaaS economics: recurring commission, hybrid structures, lifetime payouts. Your CAC and payback math stays clean.

03

Nurture

Onboarding flows, briefs, creative assets, monthly check-ins. We keep the tribe active so partners actually drive revenue instead of going dormant.

04

Protect

Anti-fraud monitoring, holdout tests, coupon-extension blocks. We keep the parasites out so you only pay for incremental revenue.

The Power Law

1% of partners. 90% of revenue.

It's not opinion — it's the recurring pattern across every SaaS affiliate program we've seen. The work isn't volume. The work is finding the partners that compound.

Two-thirds of category affiliate spend goes to publishers sitting in the last five minutes of checkout — collecting commission on customers who were already going to buy. Generalist agencies sell that as "scale." We don't.

We measure incrementality, not last-click vanity. We name our wins by partner, not by activation count.
