FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about switching from PartnerStack to Affonso.

  • 01Is Affonso better than PartnerStack?
    For SaaS startups and growing teams, yes. Affonso offers transparent pricing starting at €15/mo, self-serve setup in minutes, and all the features you need to run a successful affiliate program. PartnerStack is better suited for large enterprise B2B companies with complex partner ecosystems and the budget for custom pricing.
  • 02How much does PartnerStack cost?
    PartnerStack does not publish pricing publicly. You need to contact their sales team for a custom quote. Based on industry reports, plans typically start in the hundreds of dollars per month range, making it significantly more expensive than most alternatives.
  • 03Can I migrate from PartnerStack to Affonso?
    Yes. Affonso offers free migration support. Sign up for a free trial, provide your PartnerStack export data, and the Affonso team will help transfer your affiliates, links, and commission settings.
  • 04What features does Affonso have that PartnerStack doesn't?
    Affonso offers transparent self-serve pricing, faster setup (minutes vs weeks), an AI-powered affiliate finder, support for 5 payment processors, and no sales calls required. PartnerStack has a larger existing partner network (116,000+), which is its primary advantage for enterprise companies.
