Reditus Review: The Only "True" Marketplace for B2B SaaS

Review Date: December 12, 2025

📊 Quick Scorecard

1. The Identity Check (Context)

Don't just list features. Define the ideal user.

• ✅ Best For: B2B SaaS Companies who need RECRUITMENT. If you have a great product but zero connections to affiliates, Reditus is your best bet because it is the only SaaS-focused tool that has an actual Marketplace.
• ❌ Worst For: E-commerce & Low-Ticket B2C. If you sell $20 consumer apps or physical goods, you will find no partners here. The ecosystem is strictly high-ticket B2B software (e.g., SEO tools, CRM, AI).
• The Bottom Line: Reditus fills the massive gap between "dumb trackers" (Rewardful/Tolt) and "expensive ecosystems" (PartnerStack). It is currently the only platform that offers a PartnerStack-style marketplace experience at a price point accessible to startups.

2. Implementation Friction

How hard is it to actually get started?

• Integration Method: Native Stripe App / Paddle.
  • Like Tolt, Reditus is an official Stripe App. You install it directly from the Stripe dashboard.
  • Paddle Support: Excellent. It is one of the few tools that treats Paddle as a first-class citizen, not an afterthought.
• Time-to-Live: < 30 Minutes.
  • Install script -> Connect Stripe -> Configure Commission settings.
• Migration Support: Yes.
  • They offer a concierge migration service to move you off Rewardful or FirstPromoter, including importing existing tracking links so they don't break.
• Notes: Reditus is aggressive about "privacy-friendly" tracking, using a UID (User ID) method that claims to be more robust against ad-blockers than traditional third-party cookies.

3. The Affiliate Experience (Portal Review)

If the affiliates hate the dashboard, the program fails.

• Portal UI/UX: Network Style (One Login).
  • The Big Win: Unlike Rewardful (where an affiliate needs a new login for every program), Reditus works like a network. An affiliate logs in once and sees a dashboard with all their Reditus partners (e.g., they might promote your tool, Expandi, and Clay all in one view).
  • This reduces friction significantly for professional B2B publishers.
• Customization: Moderate.
  • You can brand your specific program page, but the overall "shell" remains Reditus-branded to maintain the network feel.
• Assets: Standard.
  • Allows uploading of social assets and swipe copy.

4. Tracking & Attribution (The Engine)

• Tracking Type: 1st Party Cookies + Fingerprinting (UID).
• Attribution Models: Last Click.
• Fraud Prevention: Good.
  • Because they operate a marketplace, they are more proactive about banning "bad actor" affiliates from the entire network than standalone tools are.
• Offline Tracking: No. Designed for self-serve SaaS checkout only.

5. Payout Logistics & Finance

• Payout Method: Automated (Managed Service).
  • On the "Growth" plan and above, Reditus offers "Payouts on Behalf of."
  • How it works: You receive one invoice for the total commissions. Reditus handles the distribution to individual affiliates.
• Tax Compliance: Yes.
  • They handle the W-9/W-8BEN collection for any affiliate paid through their managed system.
• Currencies: USD/EUR focused.

6. Pricing & Hidden Costs

• Base Price:
  • Free Plan: $0/mo (Up to $1k revenue). Rare and generous.
  • Startup: ~$59/mo (Tracking only, no Marketplace listing).
  • Growth: ~$199/mo (Required to be listed in the Marketplace).
• The "Gotchas":
  • The Marketplace Gate: Many users sign up for the cheap plan thinking they will get partners. False. You only get listed in the public Marketplace if you pay for the $199/mo plan.
  • Transaction Fees: If you use the Free plan, there is a transaction fee on sales.
• Free Trial: 14 Days (or just use the Free Tier indefinitely).

7. The "Authority" System Checks

Specific features that power-users care about.

• [YES] Marketplace: The #1 reason to buy this tool. It lists you alongside 6,000+ B2B SaaS affiliates.
• [YES] Vanity URLs: Affiliates can customize links.
• [NO] Multi-Tier (MLM): Reditus focuses on direct B2B referrals, not multi-level schemes.
• [YES] Dynamic Tiers: You can set rules like "If you refer 10 customers, your commission bumps from 20% to 30%" automatically.

8. Final Verdict

The Good (Pros):

• The Marketplace: It is the only valid alternative to PartnerStack for B2B. If you need new partners (not just tracking for existing ones), this is the tool.
• The Free Tier: You can launch a fully functional program for $0/mo until you actually make money. This is perfect for bootstrappers.
• Network Login: Professional affiliates prefer Reditus because they don't have to manage 50 different passwords.

The Bad (Cons):

• Cost of Discovery: To actually access the "Marketplace" feature, you must pay ~$200/mo. This is a steep jump from the $59/mo tier.
• Niche Constraint: If you aren't selling B2B Software, this tool is useless to you.
• Support: While good, it is not "24/7 Enterprise" grade like Impact.

Who should buy this right now?

The "Growth-Stage" B2B SaaS. If you have $10k+ MRR and have exhausted your own network, you need Reditus. It is the most cost-effective way to get your product in front of 6,000+ active B2B software affiliates without paying the $10,000+ annual fees of PartnerStack.

Do not buy if: You are just starting and have a list of friends willing to promote you. Use Tolt or the Reditus Free Plan (without marketplace) for that.
