What Is FirstPromoter?

FirstPromoter helps subscription and SaaS businesses launch affiliate, referral, and ambassador programs tied to recurring billing. It tracks referrals through signup and subscription events, supports recurring and one-time commissions, gives partners branded dashboards and links, automates email notifications and payouts, and integrates directly with billing platforms so cancellations, refunds, and plan changes can affect commissions.

Best for: SaaS companies that need affiliate tracking connected to subscription billing and recurring commissions.

FirstPromoter ties its subscription tiers to affiliate-generated revenue, not overall company turnover; accounts move to another tier when the cap is exceeded. The Starter plan also restricts the number of affiliates and campaigns, and custom-domain affiliate portals begin on Business. Billing-provider integrations include Stripe, Paddle, Chargebee, Recurly and Braintree, which is important when refunds or recurring charges affect commissions.
