Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureAffiliate Loop gives every creator a referral link and their own Shopify discount code, then tracks each sale through to a payout you can audit. Commission is held through your return window, and a refund reverses it automatically along with the creator's lifetime total. When you put ad spend behind a creator's content, the sales that ad produces are tagged and settled at a separate, lower rate.
Creator Sea connects your store with content creators who promote your products through their own tracked links. Install the app, tell us about your brand, and once we approve it your catalogue syncs automatically. You choose which products creators can promote. When a shopper buys through a creator's link, the sale is attributed to that creator and shown in the app.
