Trcker is affiliate tracking software for SaaS, ecommerce, and lead-gen brands. It captures clicks server-side on your own domain, flags fraud with a LightGBM model trained on real conversion patterns, and exposes every metric to AI agents through a built-in MCP server. Pricing starts at $99/month with no contract — versus $750/month for Everflow or 4-figure annual quotes from Impact.com.
The features Everflow, Impact, and Rewardful charge add-ons for — included on every plan.
Click capture happens on your domain, server-to-server. Bypasses iOS Mail Privacy, ad blockers, and ITP signal loss that breaks pixel-based platforms.
LightGBM scoring + SHAP segment discovery. Bots, click stuffing, and incentivized traffic are flagged in real time — not after you've paid out.
Ask questions in plain English: "Which partners drove the most revenue last quarter?" The copilot writes the SQL, runs it, and explains results.
Connect your store or postback URL, define a payout, share your branded link. No 6-month implementation, no enterprise sales call.
Geo, device, and audience routing on a single short link. Native coupon-code attribution for offline-to-online conversions.
Server-side conversion APIs for Meta, TikTok, Google, Reddit, Snap, Pinterest, X, LinkedIn, Bing — fire conversions back to ad platforms automatically.
Last-click, first-click, linear, time-decay, and position-based models — switchable per offer. Plus an incrementality dashboard to see what's actually driving lift.
Native Model Context Protocol server lets Claude, ChatGPT, and other AI agents query your affiliate data, run reports, and trigger actions on your behalf.

Side-by-side comparisons: Trcker vs Everflow · Trcker vs Impact · Trcker vs Rewardful
iOS 14.5 broke pixel-based tracking. iOS 15 Mail Privacy broke email attribution. Chrome's third-party cookie phase-out broke everything else. Pixel-based affiliate platforms patched the holes with workarounds that get less reliable every quarter.
Trcker captures clicks server-side on your own domain. The browser sees a first-party HTTP request — same domain, same origin. Ad blockers don't touch it. ITP doesn't restrict it. iOS Mail Privacy doesn't degrade it. The data is yours, not ours.
How server-side tracking works →Same software, different recipes — pick the program type that matches your business.
Content publishers, coupon sites, comparison shopping, email lists. Last-click or multi-touch attribution.
Branded short links, coupon-code attribution, geo routing for international creators, instant payouts.
Self-serve creator onboarding, unique tracking link per video/post, CAPI events back to TikTok and Meta.
Affiliate tracking software is the system that records clicks on a partner's link, attributes conversions back to that partner, calculates commission, and pays out. The good ones add fraud detection, multi-touch attribution, partner portals, and reporting on top.
Same thing, different framing. "Affiliate software" or an "affiliate tool" is the platform a brand uses to run an affiliate program — track affiliate programs, attribute conversions, calculate commissions, and pay partners. It's the system you bring to the table when you're the merchant; an affiliate network like CJ or ShareASale is what you join when you're a publisher looking for offers to promote.
For small businesses (under $10M revenue), Trcker, Rewardful, and Tapfiliate are the most common picks at the $99/mo tier. Trcker is the only one of the three with first-party server-side tracking, ML fraud detection, and an MCP server for AI agents — the others are pixel-based with rule-based fraud.
It depends on stage and budget. Trcker for $99/mo with first-party server-side tracking, ML fraud detection, and AI copilot. Rewardful for Stripe-only SaaS at $49/mo. Tapfiliate for ecommerce at $89/mo. Everflow for self-managed enterprise at $750/mo with a 6-month minimum. Impact.com for enterprise programs that want a partner marketplace, with 4-figure monthly quotes. See the full 10-platform comparison for detailed picks.
Entry-level SaaS affiliate software starts at $49–$99/month (Rewardful, Tapfiliate, Trcker). Mid-market platforms like Everflow run $750/month with a 6-month minimum. Enterprise platforms like Impact.com and Partnerize quote 4-figure monthly minimums plus revenue share.
Software is the tracker — you bring your own affiliates and run your own program (Trcker, Rewardful, Everflow). A network is a marketplace — you pay a network to access their pre-vetted publishers (CJ, ShareASale, Rakuten). Networks take a cut of every sale (typically 20–30%); software charges a flat fee.
Pixel-based tracking is broken or degraded. First-party server-side tracking is fine — that's why Trcker captures clicks server-side on your own domain instead of relying on a third-party pixel. The same pattern is what Stripe, Shopify, and Cloudflare Web Analytics all use.
Yes. We import your existing partners, offers, and historical click data via CSV or API. Migration takes 30 minutes for most accounts. Postbacks for in-flight conversions can run on both systems in parallel during the cutover so you don't lose attribution.
Yes — direct integrations for Stripe, Shopify, WooCommerce, and Chargebee. For custom backends, the postback URL is one HTTP call from your conversion event. We also support coupon-code attribution for offline-to-online flows.
MCP (Model Context Protocol) is the standard Anthropic released for letting AI agents like Claude securely query SaaS data. Trcker's MCP server exposes 12 tools — partners, offers, clicks, conversions, fraud scores, EPC pricing — so your team can ask Claude things like "draft a recap for the top 5 partners last quarter" and have it actually pull the numbers.
Free during early access. 5-minute setup. No credit card. Migration assistance included.
