Shaded rows are where the two answers disagree and both listings have answered. A row where one side has not stated a fact is left plain, because silence is not a difference.
Lasso
Affiliate links that stay alive on a WordPress site
Lasso manages the affiliate links inside a publisher's own content: display boxes and comparison tables, plus monitoring that flags a link once the product goes out of stock or the page it pointed at disappears. It pulls performance in from the networks so earnings sit beside the posts that made them. Sites with hundreds of links are where it pays. A single review post does not need this.
Our note
Check whether the promotion is still running before paying the standing price, and check the renewal rate before treating a discounted first year as the cost. The free plan is the sensible starting point for a site whose affiliate income has not yet paid for a subscription.
Rewardful
Affiliate programs built on top of Stripe
Rewardful attaches an affiliate program to a business that already bills through Stripe or Paddle, and the install really is two scripts. Commissions adjust themselves when a referred customer upgrades, downgrades or cancels, which is the part people get wrong doing it in a spreadsheet. It sees only what those two processors see, so a Gumroad or Lemon Squeezy checkout sits outside it.
Our note
Rewardful and FirstPromoter cost the same and do the same job. Choose Rewardful if you want it working in an afternoon, and FirstPromoter if the affiliate dashboard needs to look like part of your product.
