Since you work in this space, would you happen to know if there’s something like this on the other side of the marketplace for the affiliate content publishers? I started building out a site but the closest thing I can find to a platform entails hacking a Wordpress e-comm CMS to manage outbound links as if they were purchasable products.

I like where you are going with this. Is there any way to set a different "conversion" event, instead of signup? Just move the tracking event to later in the funnel I guess? I think at a minimum, you should explain this usecase in your docs, as I expect many people don't pay for "sign ups" rather for "purchases".

Hey thank you for your feedback! I 100% agree, the docs are my next priority after the next two features go live.

You can see what’s on the roadmap here: https://reflio.canny.io

Custom events will be possible in the upcoming analytics update :)

Is 9% fee per successful referral not crazy expensive? Or am I missing something here?

I don’t think so. The idea of the 9% fee is to allow you to try out the platform with no upfront commitment. You only pay per successful referral. So once you start to see referrals come through, you could then upgrade to a plan that has 0% fees.

I’ll add a fee cap though of maybe ~$50 or so though to account for higher ticket conversions.

This explains a lot and a cap sounds great!
