What happens when I go over the Tolt plan limit?

You move up a tier: $69 to $99 at $10,000/mo in affiliate revenue, then $199 at $20,000 and custom pricing above $50,000. You may also be moved up by non-revenue limits: Basic allows 2 programs, 3 partner groups, 3 seats and 3 commission flows.

Does Tolt charge a transaction fee?

Not on sales, but yes on payouts: automated payouts carry a stated 2% processing fee on Growth, Pro and Enterprise. Basic has no automated payouts, so no fee applies there. At $4,000/mo in payouts the fee is $80. Referly's transaction fee is 0% and its payout automation adds no percentage.

Is there a free plan or a free trial?

No free plan. There is a 14-day free trial with no credit card required. No refund policy is published on the pricing page.

Can I cancel Tolt, and do I get a refund?

Cancellation terms are not published and no refund policy is stated. If you are moving an existing program, Referly ships a direct Tolt importer that carries affiliates, their links and their commission rates across, free on every plan. Settle accrued commissions in Tolt before switching.

Why does Tolt's alternatives page say 'no commission fee' if it charges 2%?

Both statements are about different things and both are accurate on their own terms: Tolt takes no percentage of your sales, and it does take 2% of automated payouts. The fee is on their pricing page in plain sight. It is worth knowing which of the two claims applies to your setup before you compare it with anyone else's.

The meter

Two meters, and the second one is the expensive one

Affiliate revenue sets the plan. Payout volume sets the fee.

Tolt's revenue ladder is competitive and clearly published: $69 to $10,000/mo, $99 to $20,000, $199 to $50,000. On sticker and first cap it sits almost exactly alongside Referly's $75 to $10,000.

The second meter is where the two diverge. Automated payouts are not on Basic at all, and on Growth and above they carry a stated 2% processing fee on everything you pay out. At $20,000/mo in affiliate revenue that is $80 on top of the $99 plan. Referly gates automated payouts too, to Business at $149, and adds no percentage once you have them.

ToltReferly

Priced with payouts automated, which is the case Tolt's 2% actually applies to. On manual payouts at the entry band Tolt is $69 against Referly's $75, six dollars cheaper, and this page says so.

The fees on top

One fee, stated on their own page, attached to the feature most programs eventually want.

2% payout processing fee

$80/mo on $4,000 of payouts; $200 on $10,000

Verbatim from their pricing page: "Auto payouts (fast global payouts with 2% processing fee)". Applies on Growth, Pro and Enterprise. Basic has no automated payouts at all, so the fee cannot apply there.

No fee on sales

Tolt takes no percentage of your sales or affiliate revenue. The 2% is on payouts specifically, which is a narrower base than a sales fee, and worth stating clearly rather than blurring the two.

Source: Tolt's pricing page

Referly's own fees, in the same format: 0% transaction fee on every plan, meaning no cut of sales, affiliate revenue or commission volume. Two optional charges do carry a percentage and neither is a transaction fee: agency client billing at 5% / 2.5% / 1%, only if an agency invoices its clients through Referly, and Referly Payouts at 5% bank/ACH and 8% card, only if you use the managed payout rail.

Plan boundaries

What Basic doesn't include

The $69 plan is sized for one small program run by two or three people.

Features and the plan each one starts on
Feature		Starts on
Automated payouts (and with them, the 2% fee)		Growth ($99)
Collecting W-9/W-8 forms and filing 1099s		Growth ($99)
More than 2 programs		Growth ($99), 5 programs
More than 3 partner groups		Growth ($99), 5 groups
More than 3 team members		Growth ($99), 5 seats
More than 3 commission flows		Growth ($99), 5 flows
Unlimited programs, groups, seats and flows		Pro ($199)
Shopify or WooCommerce tracking		Not available on any plan

Referly gates things too, and on the same basis: automated payouts, EU self-billing invoices, W-9/W-8 collection and the custom portal domain all start on Business at $149. Coupon tracking and link tracking are on every plan, and sub-affiliate tiers are 2 levels, not unlimited.

Is Tolt worth the money?

Tolt is good value if

You're under $10,000/mo and genuinely happy paying a handful of affiliates by hand
At that band $69 undercuts every comparable plan including Referly's $75
One or two programs and three seats is enough for how your team works
You want the least product between you and a working affiliate link

It stops being good value when

You automate payouts and 2% of every payout starts, permanently
You need W-9s collected, which moves you to $99 whatever your revenue
You pass $20,000/mo, where the plan plus the fee reaches $179
You add a Shopify store, which no Tolt plan can track

Referly is $75/mo and caps at $10,000/mo on Startup, six dollars more than Tolt for the same ceiling. Automated payouts, W-9/W-8 collection and EU invoicing start on Business at $149, and once you have them there is no percentage on top. Referly also tracks Shopify, which Tolt does not.

Referly is $30/mo less at this size, which is $360 over a year.

Modelled with payouts automated, so Tolt sits on Growth and the 2% applies. Drop to manual payouts and Tolt's Basic plan is $69 against Referly's $75, the honest other half of this comparison.

At $10,000/mo in affiliate revenue with 200 affiliates and a 20% commission, Tolt comes to $139/mo on Growth and Referly to $149/mo on Business. Drag the sliders to your own numbers.
