What is UpPromote?
UpPromote is a Shopify app that lets e-commerce brands run affiliate, influencer and referral programs. Merchants create programs, recruit partners and track the sales those partners bring in, all from inside the Shopify admin.
When an affiliate joins, they get a custom link and a personalized coupon automatically. Sales can be credited to the right partner through links, coupons, connected customers or connected products. Commissions are calculated as orders come in, and payouts go out through PayPal or store credit on a schedule. To keep partners active, merchants can use commission tiers, performance bonuses, product gifting and multi-level networks. An AI assistant suggests commission setups, and there is a marketplace for finding affiliates.
UpPromote suits Shopify merchants of any size, from stores starting on the free plan to Shopify Plus brands. Larger brands get API and webhook access, multi-store sync and tax form collection (W-9 and 1099).
