Rekomi

Paid

Rekomi is affiliate and referral marketing software. It runs commission programs for SaaS, ecommerce, and subscription brands.

It connects to Stripe, Paddle, Braintree, Shopify, WooCommerce, and other payment gateways. It tracks affiliate-driven revenue, calculates commissions, and processes payouts automatically.

The platform handles three commission models: per sale, per click, and per lead. It collects tax forms and files 1099s. Payouts run through Stripe Connect Express to 165+ countries.

Open it if you run a subscription business and want payouts handled for you. Skip it if you want the absolute lowest cost or need deep multi-tier program controls.

It fits when you want recruitment-through-payout in one system.

• SaaS and subscription brands using Stripe, Paddle, or Braintree: Billing events like renewals and refunds feed straight into commission math. You stop reconciling by hand.
• Shopify brands needing refund-aware attribution: Returns and chargebacks automatically reverse commissions. Your numbers stay clean.
• Founder-led programs without operations staff: Tax forms, payouts, and 1099s happen without you touching spreadsheets.
• Teams running influencer campaigns with spoken coupon codes: Codes work on TikTok, podcasts, and livestreams without tracking links.
• BigCommerce merchants wanting integrated affiliate management: Server-side tracking via webhooks avoids pixel-blocking issues.
• Sellers needing international payouts with US tax compliance: Stripe and PayPal cover 130+ countries. W-9, W-8, and 1099-NEC filing included.
• Teams doing small-to-mid volume who value automation over lowest cost: You trade a 3% payout fee for not hiring dedicated staff.

These are what you notice once affiliates start running.

• Billing-native tracking: It listens to subscription lifecycle events. Upgrades, downgrades, and refunds adjust commissions automatically.
• Managed payouts with tax handling: You are not the middleman. Rekomi collects forms, holds payouts until compliant, and files as payer of record.
• Coupon attribution for link-free promotion: Creators say a code on a podcast. Sales still tie back to them.
• Migration tools that preserve history: Existing affiliate URLs keep working. Past data imports without starting over.
• Flat 3% payout fee: You know the cost at any scale. No volume caps or surprise tiers.

The setup runs in one flow.

1. Connect your billing platform first. Stripe, Paddle, or Shopify.
2. Build commission rules. Pick flat fee or percentage, one-time or recurring.
3. Invite affiliates or let the AI flag customers likely to refer.
4. Review fraud-scored clicks and leads before approving.
5. Payouts release automatically through Stripe Connect.

Skip it when these limits block your program.

• High-volume programs where 3% adds up: At scale, the flat fee can exceed subscription costs. Crunch the math for your payout volume.
• Need PayPal as primary payout method: Support is not fully rolled out. Verify it works for your affiliates before you commit.
• Want AI co-pilot or coupon codes on entry plan: These sit on Growth at $49+ or above. Budget for the tier you actually need.
• Need white-label or multi-currency reporting: These only unlock on Pro at $99. Entry plans show Rekomi branding.
• Prefer direct self-managed payouts: The_managed model adds overhead you may not want.
