The beta offer gives you hands-on help to turn affiliate from an idea into a tracked first campaign.

Assisted setup

We help configure the campaign, commission rules, partner page and first tracking link.

First affiliate targets

We help define the first 5 affiliate profiles and outreach angle. You keep ownership of the relationship and invitations.

Reduced beta pricing

Founding Merchants receive 50% off their selected RefCampaign plan for the first 3 months.

14-day review

After two weeks, we review setup quality, early traffic, conversion signals and the next experiment.

Eligibility

The offer is for SaaS teams with enough signal to test partner acquisition.

Sellable SaaS

You have a live product, public website and a pricing model that supports a realistic commission.

Stripe or Stripe-ready

You already use Stripe or can connect Stripe before the beta setup starts.

Founder involvement

You can give feedback, approve the commission rule and contact the first affiliate candidates.

14-day path

A short launch cycle with clear checkpoints.

Day 0

Qualification call

We check margin, average order value, ideal affiliates and support risk before accepting the beta spot.

Days 1-3

Campaign setup

We configure tracking, commission rules, partner page copy and the first test link.

Day 7

First partner push

You start the first outreach with a short target list and one clear partner promise.

Day 14

Program audit

We review tracked activity, gaps and the next action instead of leaving the program half-launched.

Feedback and metrics

Clear counterparts, no sensitive public data.

In exchange for the beta pricing, we ask for product feedback and permission to use anonymized aggregate learnings.

Publishable metrics

Number of affiliates, clicks, conversions and attributed revenue can be shared only in anonymized form.

Private data stays private

Customer names, contract values, margins, personal data and private partner conversations are not published.
