Does OptimizeAffiliate require Shopify?

No. Ecommerce brands can receive daily, weekly, or monthly affiliate email reports without installing an app. Shopify brands can also use the embedded workspace for deeper order, inventory, catalog, and promotion context.

Do I need another affiliate dashboard?

No. Configurable email reports provide affiliate performance, partner movement, and priority actions. The Shopify workspace is available for deeper investigation and execution.

Affiliate program intelligence inside Shopify.

OptimizeAffiliate joins your AvantLink or Impact data with your Shopify orders, products, promo codes and inventory. It flags what's costing you money and tells you what to do next. Your team gets the highlights by email every morning.

Install on the Shopify App Store. Not on Shopify? See email-only reports.

What's inside the app

Dashboard: revenue, commission, clicks and new customers across every network, with pace to your monthly goal

Samples: send a creator a product as a Shopify draft order and track the sales lift
