I am very disappointed with how influencers are handling brand collaborations on the Shopify Collab. Many influencers send their applications, and after accepting some of them, I sent gifts. They received the gifts but failed to post or share stories about the products. They also do not respond to emails or Instagram messages. Additionally, there is no option to rate these creators/influencers, which allows them to act unaccountably.
Thank you for your feedback and review. I will make sure to provide this information to our team. -Emily, Shopify Support

I will reconsider my review when "influencers" can be rated and reported for failing to comply with agreed terms. I do not want to give free gifts to random individuals and then be ghosted!!!
Hey there, thanks for the review. I can certainly see the benefit of allowing merchants to rate the influencer that they have worked with. I am going to provide this as a suggestion to our developers of the application. With that being said, it is possible to create a contract that outlines the expectations for the work that the influencer will carry out. I would suggest seeking legal advice when drafting the contract. -Ollie, Shopify Support

Improvements I would like to see is better search/filtering capabilities of the affiliates listed in the recruiting section of the app. Also, once an affiliate has joined the program, I wish it was easier for the affiliates to set up their automatic payments. Currently, it looks like the affiliates have to create a separate Hyperwallet account to get paid automatic commissions. I was hoping the affiliates could just enter their PayPal email address.

I have only just activated this - and the idea is that I have given a Collaborator 10% off their first purchase and from there they will get 15% on every item sold. The items AOV is $250 plus. It remains to be seen if anyone will bite, however, I see I have nothing to lose and the process to get it set up and reach out to legit micro-influencers is easy. Let's see. I am new to this.

Conversions are not happening.
Thanks for taking the time and sharing this feedback. If you're not getting any conversions from the collaborators, then you can consider trying other collaborators. However, if you believe there's an issue or a bug, then you can get in touch with us via the Shopify Help Center (https://shopify.link/vRnL). Cheers. -Elias, Shopify Support

this app continued to charge me after deleting it from my store!!
Thank you for bringing this to our attention. While Shopify Collabs is completely free to use for merchants and creators (https://shopify.link/d6DD), there may be a commission processing fee that's applied on some orders earned by affiliates. However, if you believe there's been a mistake on your Shopify invoice, then we'd be happy to take a closer look at your account. Please visit the Shopify Help Center (https://shopify.link/vRnL) and join us on a live chat. Cheers. -Elias, Shopify Support

Great interface, but needs protections for sellers. I sent 2 candles out to "influencers" who have yet to post with them as agreed, and two months later, I'm still waiting. I've never had this happen before. Implement a deposit or something influencers have to put down so that sellers aren't out money if they do not post with the product!
Hi, there. Thank you for reaching out and sharing your feedback with Shopify Collabs. We're sorry to hear you did not have an ideal experience using the app. We recommend creating contracts that outline the expectations for the work the creator/influencer will carry out. It is also recommended to seek legal advice when drafting any type of contract. -Victoria, Shopify Support.

Absolutely terrible experience. Creators just take free gifts and ghost. Shopify Collabs is a way for random people (not actual collaborators or influencers) to take free product from you. Not a way to make money, a way to lose money. Also, there is no expectation set by Shopify Collabs for these "creators". But of course there is an expectation to the business to provide something, whether free or a discount. Very disappointing. You are better off connecting with people yourself on social media platforms.
Thank you for sharing your experience. I understand it must be difficult when creators don't uphold their part of your agreement. While Shopify provides the platform to facilitate the connection between merchants and creators, we don't have the authority to enforce these agreements. For this reason some merchants choose to seek legal counsel and create contracts that both parties can sign. This might be helpful to consider if you choose to continue using Shopify Collabs.
