Affiliate marketing is broken for apps

In-app sales are hard to track, affiliates don't trust the numbers, and good ones are hard to find. Here is how we fix all three.

In-app sales vanish

“Where did that sale actually come from?”

Every purchase is matched to the creator who drove it, verified against the store receipt.

Affiliates fly blind

“Can you send me a screenshot of my sales?”

Creators see the same live numbers you do, and get paid automatically.

Recruiting is a grind

“Every creator I message leaves me on read.”

Invite creators from the marketplace in one click, or search 340M+ profiles for your next affiliate.

One link in. One payout out

An affiliate shares a tagged link. Someone subscribes inside your app. We attribute that sale to them and pay the commission, without you touching a spreadsheet.

An illustration of the attribution loop: an affiliate shares a tagged link, one of their followers opens a fitness app with the affiliate's offer applied and subscribes for $29.99, Insert Affiliate verifies the receipt and records a $9.00 commission for that affiliate, and commissions are then paid out to every affiliate at the end of the month.

“Sounds all pretty seamless… I think this has been the barrier to entry for apps to do this. These are all those kind of huge things that add up to it being more feasible, especially for a small developer.”

Their founder, Michael Butler, has been incredibly thorough throughout the entire process. He took the time to understand our requirements and clearly communicated the process from start to finish. The level of attention and technical capability has been nothing short of impressive. If you're looking for a partner who moves fast, listens carefully, and delivers exactly what you need, I can't recommend Insert Affiliate highly enough.”

Here's what our other customers want to know

Still have a question? Book a call or read the docs.

App-based affiliate marketing is ideal for all apps, from fitness to travel, mobile games to news apps - any business with a mobile app that has in app purchases and wants to scale their user acquisition without dramatically increasing their costs.

We integrate with providers like RevenueCat, AppHud, and direct App Store/Google Play webhooks to track when affiliates generate actual subscription conversions, ensuring accurate attribution and commission payments.

We facilitate a variety of commission structures, more information can be found in our docs.

Implementation typically takes a few hours depending on your current setup. We provide dedicated support to help integrate with your existing tech stack and get your affiliate program running smoothly.

Our enterprise clients can get access to our affiliate recruitment services, but we also have a free marketplace for affiliates to find your campaign.

Our dashboard provides real-time tracking of conversions, revenue attribution, affiliate performance metrics, and detailed reporting to help optimize your affiliate program.

Every affiliate gets a deep link that takes people straight into your app, or to the app store if they do not have it yet, and the sale is still credited to that affiliate after they install. Insert Links, our own deep links, are built in. If you already use AppsFlyer or Branch, you can connect those instead.

We offer dedicated onboarding support including technical integration assistance, strategy consultation, and ongoing support to ensure your affiliate program success.

It's quick and easy to get started. After purchasing a subscription, head over to our docs and follow the quick integration steps.

You can either choose to pay your affiliates within Insert Affiliate via Stripe, or can pay your affiliates externally and mark them as paid in the dashboard.

No. Our platform adds no markup or additional fees. Stripe directly handles all payment processing fees, which are automatically deducted from the affiliate's payment. Stripe's standard processing fees apply.

Yes! You can configure this per affiliate. Choose between paying commission on both the initial purchase and all subsequent renewals, or on the initial purchase only. This gives you flexibility to reward your top-performing affiliates differently.

Yes, with our Daisy Chain Commission feature. You can create multi-tier affiliate structures where a parent affiliate earns a commission when their recruited affiliates generate sales. The parent's commission is calculated separately and does not reduce the child affiliate's earnings.
