MerittPartnerStack review 2026: pricing, limits and an alternative
PartnerStack targets B2B software companies that want resellers, referral partners and a partner marketplace. It pays partners itself. Its price is not read: it is asked for.
PartnerStack is a partner management platform for B2B software companies: affiliates, referral partners, resellers and co-selling partners, with a B2B partner marketplace. It is a different tool from Meritt, and that has to be said before comparing prices.
What PartnerStack costs
The Launch, Growth and Enterprise plans have no published price: PartnerStack says pricing depends on program size, features and support level, and goes through a demo. A Spark plan, shown on a separate page, is $0 a month plus 10% of commissions paid out.
| Plan | Listed price | What the price follows |
|---|---|---|
| PartnerStack | ||
| Spark | $0 / month | + 10% of commissions paid out; Stripe only, one user |
| Launch, Growth | through a demo | by program size and support level |
| Enterprise | through a demo | established programs |
| Meritt | ||
| Starter | $0 / month | until your first commission |
| Pro | $49 / month | no cap on sales, clicks or affiliates |
| Business | $99 / month | that is the ceiling, there is nothing above it |

A price you cannot read
With no price shown, there is no way to know before the sales call what your program will cost in a year. And on Spark, 10% of every commission: $5,000 of commissions paid in a month is $500 of fees. Meritt shows $0, $49 or $99 a month and takes nothing from commissions.
What PartnerStack does better
- The marketplace. More than 100,000 B2B partners according to its pages.
- Paying partners end to end. PartnerStack groups commissions on one monthly invoice and pays each partner in their currency and method. At Meritt, funds leave your own PayPal or Wise accounts.
- Partnerships beyond affiliates. Reselling and co-selling, CRM integrations.
For a B2B software company building a reseller network, PartnerStack remains the better choice of the two.
Moving from PartnerStack to Meritt
Your affiliates keep their original code, and the old link formats keep working — ?via=, ?fpr=, ?ref=, ?rfsn=. Nobody has to republish anything.
If your program is mostly affiliates on
Stripe, the switch is one Stripe connection, your plans recreated and a new link per
partner; a past sale can be added from its Stripe reference and credited to its affiliate.
See what it does on your own program
Tracking is free until your first commission, your own domain included. You will know whether the links get through before you pay anything.
