They REALLY need to add some basic filtering to prevent garbage applications coming in. 90% of my applicants do not read my requirements for # of followers or category. Please implement a hard gating for number of followers! And, do more to root out these discount code hawking "influencers". Its just spam.

Caution from our experience: We found that this app invoices our Shopify account for affiliate commissions, but only releases payments to affiliates once they’ve reached at least $25. There’s no option to request payouts below this amount, so if an affiliate earns under $25, the funds remain stuck and unpaid. This became a problem when we looked at moving to a different affiliate platform, because any affiliates who hadn’t reached the $25 minimum would never receive payment — yet the amounts had already been billed to us through Shopify. If the platform won’t pay affiliates under the threshold, it would seem fairer for those commissions to be returned to the business so they can be paid manually.

Je suis choqué de voir que c'est mon adresse de service clients définie dans Shopify qui est utilisée pour l'envoi des invitations et non l'adresse indiquée dans Collabs. On le voit lorsque les influenceurs répondent. Sous leur réponse, dans la copie du message initial il y a écrit : "Envoyé par serviceclients@". Ca ne fait pas sérieux.

No longer allows sign-ups due to a glitch - I've spent over a month now from the time I reported the issue but it continues and I haven't seen a follow-up. My applicants connect a social account but can't submit their application because it says "a social account must be connected". It happens to me, as well. Besides this, the interface is still unintuitive. It takes me at least 5 clicks to find the setting or page I'm looking for. They did a facelift last year but it didn't help much. A mega-menu would be much easier than lots of pages with subtle buttons/tabs sprinkled around them. Once things are set up, it works reasonably well for being free. I would have it at 4 stars without the glitch.

Hello. The application is great. I have a big problem. There is no Turkish language support. I want to send an invite mail but there are non-Turkish domains. So I can't send. Can you help me?

It will automatically generate a 6.8% off in my shopping cart! This is crazy, please fix it quickly, I have uninstalled it, but the discount is still there

Not sure if it was the app or the people doing the collabs, not a good experience, we didn't receive feedback of all the people we sent our product to try it. It was a waste of time and money. Good or bad feedback is good but need the feedback to improve our service, that's why we sent our product. A good quality product. Bad quality of collaborators, they do not show after they receive the product and you end up looking for them without any success.

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

*Very basic* The "influencers" do not have a rating or any accountability. This is an app for random people to get free stuff
Thank you for taking the time and sharing this review. While all the creators in our network are fully vetted, it's important to set expectations with influecners during the application process. We appreciate your feedback and will be sure to share it with our teams. Cheers. -Elias, Shopify Support

It’s ok. Helps get name out, but not always the best. A lot of collabs are just looking for free product. We should be able to rate the Collabs and leave feedback. Sent out $$$$ in free product to promote to only have it grouped in with a bunch of other promo items and taking no time to explain our product.
Thank you for your review. While all the creators in our network are fully vetted, it's important to discuss individual expectations as they can vary from merchant to merchant. We appreciate your feedback and will be sure to record it. -Olivia, Shopify Support

There's a lot of work to do here in terms of making influencers not hate the signup flow. On our side, the UI continues to be weirdly unintuitive even after years of using it. Extra star deducted because the app just straight up stopped working on our store recently with no warning. We just discovered a little message saying "this app may not work as expected. Collabs needs to be updated by the app developer. Contact them for support or uninstall the app." Considering Shopify is the developer, you'd expect them to have this sort of thing covered.
Hi, there. Thanks for taking the time to leave a review. I would suggest reaching out to our support team directly, so that we can gather more context about this issue and assist further. You can reach our team via our help center here: https://shopify.link/WJna. -Rick, Shopify Support

I was really excited to install this app, being an influencer myself in the UK. I also have a start up business, and really wanted to work with other influencers. The integration was easy, the option to feature this option on your website however looks very unprofessional, so I will probably remove it. The WORST though is, that you can't join the Collab community until you have $10K sales! I mean, really? Where is the support for start-up or small businesses? Is this what Shopify wants to identify themselves, being a supporter of well established businesses? Very very poor!

Shopify collabs wouldnt work for my website, once I had to upgrade from dovetale to shopify collabs, it stopped working. Never really generated any good leads anyhow with influencers but was hoping. Support was not so great, contacted them twice, no one could help. Contacted support directly but at that point I just uninstalled due to too much frustration and stress......

The app is really buggy, it continually says I don't have permission to use my account and makes me install it over again.

My account was grandfathered into Collabs from Dovetale. I have spent 2 days trying to invite and receive an invitation to collab with another business owner. We both sent emails and messages and have not received any answers to what would be a simple solution. This app used to be so easy to use before it changed to collabs. I'm very disappointed. It has good features, but it's useless if you can't properly invite or register to use them.

Is so complicated to use. If you want to invite an influencer, you would have to import an excel file, etc. No way to create links or other creatives and send them to affiliates. No way on sending a message to the affiliates. I have tried for several weeks to figure this out but it just doesn't have the functionality... I am going to delete from my store and use Affiliatery which is free

Tutto bello e ben fatto, ma non si dovrebbe richiedere per forza l'iscrizione al creator su Shopfy. E' una frizione in più che frena tanti creator.
