Complementary tools

Qonversion vs Insert Affiliate

Not competitors, but complementary: Qonversion runs and verifies your subscriptions, Insert Affiliate rewards the affiliates who drive the purchases.

The short version

These two solve different problems and are designed to run side by side.

Qonversion is a subscription-management and analytics platform: it verifies purchases, manages cross-platform access, and provides paywalls, A/B testing and revenue analytics. Insert Affiliate is an affiliate platform: it attributes each verified purchase to the affiliate who referred the user, then calculates and pays the commission.

Qonversion measures and manages your subscriptions; Insert Affiliate rewards the affiliates who drove them.

What Qonversion does

Qonversion is a subscription stack for iOS, Android and web: server-side receipt validation, cross-platform entitlement management, a no-code paywall builder, A/B experiments and real-time revenue analytics, with 20+ integrations and webhooks. It ships SDKs for iOS, Android, React Native, Flutter, Unity, Cordova and web. Pricing is free up to $10,000 in monthly tracked revenue, then 0.6% (Starter) to 0.8% (Growth) of revenue, with custom Enterprise plans.

What Qonversion doesn’t do

Qonversion does not calculate or pay affiliate commissions, and it does not run an affiliate marketplace. It is subscription infrastructure and analytics — the revenue source an affiliate platform reads from, not the affiliate layer itself.

How they work together

The division of labour mirrors Insert Affiliate’s documented verification partners (RevenueCat, Adapty, Apphud, Iaptic and the direct stores): the subscription tool confirms the purchase, and Insert Affiliate attributes it to the affiliate and pays the commission. Qonversion’s verified purchase events can feed Insert Affiliate through its API so the affiliate layer sits on top.

In plain terms: Qonversion runs and verifies the subscription; Insert Affiliate rewards the affiliate who drove it.

Bottom line

Qonversion and Insert Affiliate are complementary. Qonversion manages and verifies your subscriptions; Insert Affiliate is the affiliate layer that turns those verified purchases into tracked, paid commissions. If affiliates drive your growth, the two work together.
