The Rewardful alternative you don't pay for until it earns.
affixo is a Stripe-native Rewardful alternative that stays free until your affiliates have actually made you money, then costs $19/mo where Rewardful starts at $49 — with zero transaction fees, attribution resolved server-side across six methods, and an MCP server to run the program from any AI client.
Why look for a Rewardful alternative?
Rewardful is a solid Stripe-first affiliate tool, but it bills from day one, tracking leans on cookies, and there's no free plan to start. affixo was built to fix exactly those.
You pay before you've earned
Rewardful's cheapest plan is $49/mo, charged whether or not your program has made a sale. affixo is free until your affiliates drive $2,500 in attributed revenue, then $19/mo — and cheaper than Rewardful at every level above that.
Cookie-based tracking
Cookie-first attribution loses conversions to ad blockers and browser privacy controls. affixo resolves every sale server-side across six methods — five need no cookie.
No free plan
Rewardful offers a trial, not a free plan. affixo's free plan has no card and no trial clock — it stays free until your affiliates have driven $2,500 in attributed revenue, counted over the lifetime of the account.
The honest, side-by-side comparison.
Where affixo wins, and where the two are at parity. We'd rather you trust the table than oversell it.

Switching questions, answered.
Yes. affixo has a genuinely free plan — full tracking, portals, commissions, coupons and the MCP server — with no card and no trial clock, free until your affiliates have driven $2,500 in attributed revenue over the lifetime of the account. Rewardful offers a trial rather than a free plan.
For most programs, yes. Rewardful bills from day one and starts at $49/mo; affixo starts free and its first paid plan is $19/mo, with zero transaction fees on every plan. affixo is cheaper at every level, and unlimited affiliates, campaigns, products and domains are included even on the free plan.
Rewardful is primarily cookie-based. affixo resolves attribution server-side across six precedence-ordered methods — manual code, coupon, cookie/click, UTM, subscription and email match — so five of the six need no cookie and tracking survives ad blockers and iOS.
In most cases, yes. affixo recognizes the ?via= parameter Rewardful links already use, so the links your affiliates have shared keep tracking after migration — no mass re-emailing. affixo's snippet even reads Rewardful's existing cookie, so a click made before you switched can still credit the right affiliate. We confirm coverage of your link format before you switch.
