### "The cleanest affiliate interface"

July 23, 2019

4.0

Pros

This platform is clean and offers years of experience built into the service. Affiliates and publishers alike will find many reasons to love Impact Radius for their affiliate program management.

Cons

Not as many affiliate opportunities available on this platform when compared with larger sites such as Commission Junction or Shareasale.

### "Great Experience Managing Large-Scale Campaigns with impact.com"

May 27, 2026

5.0

My overall experience with impact.com has been very positive. We have been using the platform for the past 4 years to manage 300+ campaigns as an agency, and it has helped us achieve strong performance and good ROI consistently. The platform is very user-friendly, especially when it comes to tracking, implementation, and campaign management. One of the biggest advantages is its ability to connect us with high-performing affiliates, which helps our campaigns scale effectively. The customer support team is also very supportive and responsive whenever we need assistance. Although the platform frequently introduces updates and feature changes that sometimes require additional time to adapt, overall impact.com has been a reliable and efficient partner for managing affiliate marketing campaigns successfully.

Pros

What I like most about impact.com is how helpful the platform is for agencies like ours in launching and scaling top-performing campaigns. Impact helps us connect with high-quality and top-performing affiliates, which ensures our campaigns perform effectively and deliver strong results. Their customer support team is extremely supportive and responsive whenever we need assistance. As an agency, we manage more than 300+ campaigns through Impact, and we consistently achieve a good ROI using the platform. Another great advantage is that the tracking and implementation process is very easy to set up and manage. I have been working with impact.com for the past 4 years, and over time I have gained deep knowledge of every step of the platform. Overall, it has been a reliable and efficient partner for our affiliate marketing operations.

Cons

One thing I dislike about impact.com is that the platform frequently updates or changes its setup and features. While these updates are often useful and improve the platform in the long run, they can sometimes interrupt ongoing work processes. As an agency managing multiple campaigns, we occasionally need extra time to understand the new changes, coordinate with the support team, and then continue working as per the updated instructions. This can be slightly time-consuming when handling large-scale operations.

### "Impact.com Is a Broken, Spammy, and Expensive Platform: Avoid At Costs"

June 1, 2026

1.0

Next level horrible. Onboarding was super slow, and the team at Impact.com made us pay an extra $1000 was slow to respond. Then we started experiencing issues minute one post onboarding, and the customer support was slow and provided no solutions.

Pros

Nothing. Impact.com has been a total headache to use, and even after the frustratingly slow onboarding process, things only got much, much worse. All of the lead submissions through the affiliate partners have been fraudulent, and customer support has denied that there are any issues, even after providing evidence of it.

Cons

Everything in my Impact.com has been cons. Ease of use is very low, and value for money is worse than non-existent. Customer support deserves an F rating, 0/100 stars. All of the affiliate form submissions have been fraudulent to get the $10 payout we offered for leads. None of them was legitimate. A mixture of overseas IP addresses and phone numbers that were disconnected when calling.

Alternatives considered

Reason for choosing impact.com

I wish I hadn't chosen Impact.com. I chose impact since Semrush uses them.

### "Radius Review"

January 8, 2019

5.0

Overall, the platform does everything we need and is way more cost effective vs. CJ.

Pros

One stop shop for all affiliate needs. Easy to to manage multiple accounts in one place.

Cons

The set up team was helpful, but left many questions up in the air during the on boarding process. Recommend getting set up with someone state side vs. overseas during this process.

### "I just like the whole ecosystem "

October 6, 2022

5.0

Pretty happy though I'm still working on getting more sales to justify the cost.

Pros

It does the job, and tracks. Yes, it's a bit more expensive than some of the others but if you use it right, it's still worth it. Also, I like Impact's ecosystem where it can connect to its other products and get more insight. Especially when it's to do with influencers (Activate) and finding other brands to write about you (Mediarails).

Cons

Cost. It's not as cheap as some of the others and there's a flat fee even if you get no sales.

### "impact.com is sheer waste of money"

October 29, 2025

1.0

Worst experience, Wasted money. only Automated responses, not proper support team to address the queries

Pros

Packing and nothing else, They are presenting it well, and sales guys pitch it very well for brands to get enrolled

Cons

Worst platform, They send only Junk Traffic. Big affiliate platform listed with them ask for additional listing fees. Without agreeing they keep charging brands and extending the contract , Demand fees to paid. Startups should not look at this platform , is sheer waste of money.

### "Commission payout delay"

February 27, 2020

3.0

Never paid on time, as Impact never pushed their advertisers to fund their account, hence commission overdue for months

Pros

Ease of use, and the support team, nothing else other than that

Cons

I've been an affiliate partner with this company since 2016 and it worst i've ever worked with, If you dont want to get paid, this the platform that will pay your commission after a year and 100s of emails, This is the worst platform to work with comparing to Flexoffers

### "Good for finding people to work with."

March 5, 2019

5.0

My overall experience with Radius is great! I like how now after set up everything is right there for me. I love being able to see how everyone is doing right when I log into the software. This software has made my life easier and has made us work with people we may have never worked with without this software.

Pros

I like that this brings in the legal side with the tracking to allow me to be able to not worry about everything. This takes the load off my shoulders of managing everything in different places to putting it all in one.

Cons

What I like least about this software is how in the beginning it was hard to find everything that is needed and change over logos. It took awhile to figure all this out, but when I did it was well worth it and now easy.

### "Grande variété de partenariats "

August 4, 2024

3.0

Nous avons trouvé un très large choix de partenaires avec des deals plus ou moins intéressants Les deals ne sont pas toujours acceptés selon votre profils mais une fois validés les liens d’affiliation sont faciles a générer

Pros

Large variétés de partenariats disponibles dans tous les domaines de la vie quotidienne, et culturelle

Cons

L’outil bien que très intéressant pour développer des partenariats n’est pas facilement maniable pour valider les contrats.

### "Make it with Impact!"

December 2, 2023

5.0

I love it. I wish all my affiliate partnerships would be on this platform.

Pros

The first impression was the dashboard. It is pleasantly designed with clarity and all the necessary tools at your fingerprints. Finding new brands and applying for affiliate partnerships is smooth and easy. The same way is creating links for specific pages of my affiliated brands with a convenient one-click on the menu. Accessing media to support marketing is also easily accessible so the entire platform is my favorite so far. Accessing contracts, and having an overview of all my brands is instant and I'd wish that all my affiliate partnerships would be on this one platform.

Cons

There is nothing to dislike since even if I had an issue, Impact customer support has always been quick to respond and solve my issue.

### "Impact Radius for Bloggers!"

January 18, 2019

5.0

My experience has been great. Customer service is exceptional and quick responders. Over the years, I have taught myself how to blog, Impact Radius makes it easy to integrate ads into my blog and websites without being spammy and intrusive.

Pros

I love using Impact Radius for affiliate networking and lead sales generations. You can apply for affiliations with multiple different companies, enroll in their ad networks, and place ads easily into your blogs to direct more sales traffic. You can create holiday gift guides using their affiliates and easily generate additional income to anyone who blogs as a past time or is attempting to make their brand bigger.

Cons

I haven't had any issues using this software. I have used it for several years and found that each year they update and make amazing changes to keep the software easy to use and functional.

Pros

I like the reporting capabilities. The technology is way more advanced than other affiliate networks available.

It is difficult to learn and does take a lot of training. That is expected though with a software that has these capabilities.

### "Wide selection of retailers"

October 6, 2020

5.0

So far I've had a good experience being a user/affilate of various Impact partners. The retailers have been transparent about sales earnings and update users when percentages change.

Pros

Impact offers a wide selection of retailers for affiliate marketing. You can apply easily to the retailer.

Cons

affilate program terms may be a bit confusing. Some retailers may be slow to pay out earnings as well.
