The Content Planner review for Affiliatly Affiliate Marketing
Aug. 22, 2019
I've been using this app to manage my affiliate program for 3 years -- the basic functionality is there. The one main feature that's lacking is payments. I have to pay my affiliates one at a time and I have 900 of them. Affiliatly doesn't integrate with PayPal as smoothly as I'd hoped. When you pay an affiliate, it takes TWO steps. Input the payment amount manually on the platform, then pay the amount through PayPal. This information doesn't populate manually. As a few others have said, if you can look past aesthetics and beautiful design, the app covers the necessities. Hoping for a re-design and updates - the app hasn't really changed in 3 years.
Hi, we do have an integration with the Paypal API. It can be accessed from your Affiliatly settings page > Payments > option "PayPal API". When you set this up, you will be able to pay from within the app, just by ticking a box for each affiliate that you wish to pay. After they payment is completed by PayPal, our app will automatically mark the paid earnings to the affiliates. Also, in case you can not use this (as Paypal must allow that API for your Paypal account), few months ago we have released a feature, where you can mark payouts in bulk in the app, it can be accessed from page Affiliates > "Mark earnings in bulk". Hope this will help you with the payouts. If you need more info, contact our support.
