COMPARISON WORKSHEET

Five checks before you shortlist a platform.

Use the same questions for every provider. Keep a record of the answer, the official source and the test you performed; a feature list alone does not show whether the service fits your programme.

  1. 01

    Define the job

    Which approved business outcome should this service support? Write the payable action, target audience and markets before comparing vendors.

  2. 02

    Check partner fit

    Can you reach the relevant publishers, creators or customers? Ask for evidence of active supply in your market, not a global logo count.

  3. 03

    Model the full cost

    Add subscriptions, setup, commissions, minimum commitments, staff time and payment fees. Compare against approved contribution.

  4. 04

    Test measurement

    Reproduce a conversion, cancellation and duplicate event. Confirm consent handling, attribution rules, exports and the record used to settle disputes.

  5. 05

    Run a limited pilot

    Set a start date, owner, success threshold and stop rule. Review support quality and partner activation alongside revenue.

CHOOSE BY OBJECTIVE

Which tools belong on your shortlist?

A platform category is a starting point. The right shortlist depends on the outcome, the proof you can collect and the team that will operate the service.

  1. 01

    Launch a brand programme

    Begin with partner management or an affiliate network. Confirm active partners in your market, commission rules, conversion validation and the work needed to support partners after onboarding.

  2. 02

    Monetise an editorial audience

    Compare relevant affiliate offers with advertising, direct sponsorship and subscriptions. Model net revenue per qualified visit, reader trust, page speed and the effort needed to keep recommendations current.

  3. 03

    Improve an online store

    Check product feeds, checkout conversion, consent-aware measurement and order data before adding channels. Reconcile approved sales, returns, platform fees and contribution margin in one test period.

  4. 04

    Grow a mobile app

    Separate acquisition from in-app monetisation. Test SDK events, attribution windows, consent choices, retention by cohort and the effect of ad formats on the user experience.

  5. 05

    Develop B2B partnerships

    Define a qualified lead and the hand-off to sales. Compare CRM integration, long attribution windows, duplicate handling, partner access to status and payment after lead acceptance.

  6. 06

    Enter a new country

    Verify language, currency, payment methods, product availability and local partner supply. Run a small pilot with a localised landing page and explicit customer-service ownership.

EDITORIAL METHOD

A useful shortlist, not a commercial ranking.

Services are included for their practical relevance and the information available from official sources. Always verify current eligibility, pricing, features and terms directly with the provider.
