Both cover affiliate & referral. Here is what separates them on price, billing, what you can take with you, and coverage.

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.
Run an affiliate programme without a platform fee
LeadDyno is affiliate tracking for a business that wants its own programme rather than a listing on somebody's network: affiliates get a link and a dashboard, commissions are calculated on your rules, and payouts run from the same place. Pricing is a flat monthly fee by feature tier rather than a share of the sales it tracks, which matters once the programme works. Recruiting affiliates is still entirely your problem.
Our note
Count how many commission structures you need before picking a tier, because that single limit is what forces the jump from $49 to $129 and it is easy to miss when comparing feature lists. Against a platform that takes a percentage, this pays off once tracked sales pass a few thousand a month.
Affiliate tracking you run yourself
Tapfiliate is the affiliate layer for a business that already has checkout somewhere else, with integrations for Shopify, Stripe and about thirty other places a sale can happen. Recurring commissions and coupon tracking are on the entry plan, which is where most creator programs live. Multi-level structures and automated payouts sit a tier up.
