Overview
impact.com is a partnership-management platform that handles affiliate programmes alongside influencer and creator partnerships, customer referral programmes and retail media.[2] It was co-founded by a team that includes Roger Kjensrud, its co-founder and chief technology officer, and says technology partners that integrate with it can reach more than a million active partnerships.[2] It also serves agencies, offering white-label reporting and partner operations across client programmes.[2]
impact.com publishes four plans in US dollars. Starter, for brands starting their partnerships channel or spending up to US$300,000 a year on marketing, costs US$30 a month plus 2.5% of revenue and is available only for stores on Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, Adobe Commerce and Square. Essentials, for brands with up to US$2m a year in e-commerce revenue, costs US$500 a month and includes up to US$2,500 a month in partner payouts. Pro, for brands with US$2m to US$15m in e-commerce revenue, costs US$2,500 a month and includes up to US$14,300 a month in partner payouts. Enterprise, for brands above US$15m or with multi-channel operations, is custom-priced. Add-ons include Creator Premium, Advocate Premium, Optimize, AI Search Visibility and Brand Safety tools.[1]
Its strength is scope: one contract can cover affiliates, influencers and referral programmes with shared tracking and payments. Its limitations are complexity for small teams, a revenue-share fee on Starter, and payout minimums built into the higher plans.[1]
