The FirstPromoter alternative you don't pay for until it works.

Yes. affixo has a genuinely free plan with full tracking, portals, commissions, coupons and the MCP server — no card, no trial clock — free until your affiliates have driven $2,500 in attributed revenue, counted over the lifetime of the account. FirstPromoter has no free plan, only a 14-day trial.

For almost everyone, yes. FirstPromoter bills from day one, starting at $49/mo and climbing to $99, then $149 — and the ladder doesn't stop at the public pricing page: past $149 sit enterprise tiers at $299/mo and climbing as high as $999/mo. affixo starts at $0, and its paid plans run $19, $49, $99 and $199 — lower than FirstPromoter at every level, with zero transaction fees and no cap on domains, campaigns or affiliates on any plan.

Yes — this is the heart of the migration. affixo imports every affiliate's referral slug unchanged and natively recognizes the ?fpr= and ?via= parameters FirstPromoter links already use, so the links your affiliates have shared keep attributing on your site. Nobody regenerates a link and there's no mass re-emailing. affixo's tracking snippet even reads the FirstPromoter cookie already on a visitor's device, so a click made before you switched still credits the right affiliate. Coverage depends on your current link format — we confirm it with a live test before you switch.

Connect your FirstPromoter API key and affixo pulls your program across: campaigns with their cookie windows and attribution models, commission rules (including per-plan, recurring and step-down schedules), affiliates, referral links and slugs, coupon-code mappings, referrals, full commission and payout history including chargebacks, payout terms, sub-affiliate hierarchies and tier rules. Each dataset is individually selectable, and your credentials are used for the import only — never stored.

No. Historical commissions import as history, not liability — affixo starts you at $0 owed. You settle outstanding balances in FirstPromoter as your last act there, and only new sales become payable in affixo. That also means you can keep FirstPromoter running in parallel while affixo shadows it, and switch over only when you've verified everything.

Yes. The importer runs a true dry-run first — it shows exactly what will come across, and flags anything that needs a look, without writing a single record. Apply when you're happy, and re-running is always safe: the import is idempotent, so it never creates duplicates.

Yes. affixo supports recurring, one-time, tiered and multi-level commissions, with automatic clawbacks on refunds and chargebacks.

FirstPromoter offers a fully managed auto-payout service that moves money on your behalf — but only on its enterprise tiers ($299/mo and up, SaaS businesses only, by request). With affixo, you pay affiliates through your own Stripe account or payout rail — so if a fully managed payout service is essential, that's the main difference to weigh.
