MerittAffiliatly review 2026: pricing, limits and an alternative
Affiliatly is the cheapest tool on this list for a store with few affiliates. Its price follows neither sales nor orders but the number of affiliates: seven tiers, from $0 to $129.
Affiliatly is an affiliate tracking tool for online stores: Shopify, BigCommerce, WooCommerce, Squarespace, Ecwid and others. It is the cheapest on this list when you have few affiliates.
What Affiliatly costs
Seven plans, excluding tax. The free plan tracks 50 orders; every paid plan has unlimited orders and a 14-day trial. PayPal mass payouts come with Advanced, at $24.

The price follows the number of affiliates
50, 200, 500, 1,000, 2,500 affiliates, then unlimited: every tier changes the price, whether those affiliates sell or not. A program that recruits widely pays for inactive signups. At Meritt, affiliates and orders are unlimited, at the same price.
What Affiliatly does better
- The entry price. $16 a month with unlimited orders, as long as you have fewer than 50 affiliates.
- The number of store platforms covered directly.
For a store with a handful of affiliates looking for the lowest price, Affiliatly remains the better choice of the two.
Moving from Affiliatly to Meritt
Your affiliates keep their original code, and the old link formats keep working — ?via=, ?fpr=, ?ref=, ?rfsn=. Nobody has to republish anything.
Your affiliates get a link on your domain, and
their discount codes stay your store's: you only have to assign them in Meritt.

Tracking is free until your first commission, your own domain included. You will know whether the links get through before you pay anything.
