Academy Ecommerce review for Referral Candy & Affiliate

I considered signing up for this platform but found the pricing structure to be potentially expensive for my needs. The app charges a flat fee of $59/month and an additional 3.5% commission per sale on the first three orders from each new client per affiliate. For example, if you have 5 affiliates in a month, and each makes 5 sales, you would pay a 3.5% commission on the first 3 new customers for each affiliate: Affiliate A: 3.5% x first 3 new customers Affiliate B: 3.5% x first 3 new customers Affiliate C: 3.5% x first 3 new customers Affiliate D: 3.5% x first 3 new customers Affiliate E: 3.5% x first 3 new customers The costs can add up quickly. I would be more comfortable paying a higher monthly fee, like $99/month, with no additional commission fees, which would allow for a more predictable budget. Other tools offer a flat fee with no commission, which may be a better fit for some merchants.
