Wildfire Interactive (Discontinued) vs. Travelpayouts

The transition to Google has been painful - key contacts are no longer available.

Travelpayouts is well suited for any type of blogger, regardless of the industry they are in. Be it the travel niche or not, if you have a blog already, then why start monetizing your work with affiliate partner programs? Travelpayouts is the quickest way to receive revenue from something that you are already doing.

• Facebook tab implementation. Allows you to easily create and produce functioning social tabs on your brands FB page.
• Add voting, sweepstakes, poll functionality to your website. Easily implement these campaigns to increase user engagement and TOS.

• Travelpayouts offers vast amount of free resources and courses available.
• Travelpayouts has a responsive customer service team.
• Travelayouts' dashboard is easy to use to understand.
• Travelpayouts offers users plenty of affiliate tools that can be applied to your website.

• More customization - Would like to have the ability to edit more without coding.

• It would be great to see more opportunities to test out products or services by the affiliate partner programs offered on Travelpayouts. This can help build more loyalty to the brand and allow affiliate partners to speak better about the product or service offered.

Our initial contract with Wildfire Whitelabel was for $30,000/year, as we progressed we found several alternatives for significantly less. We used this to our advantage to lower the second year to $17,000 with the limitation in the level of support (they call this their "core" subscription). Support has been quite bad.

During our contract, we also asked for quotes on some custom work, but never managed to get an answer (or actual quote). Now two years into our contract, the limitations and lack of development are enough for us to find a different solution. Newcomers to the market like Rafflecopter, WooBox and PunchTab are delivering much better results for a fraction of the price

Very easy to use, almost anyone can learn how to build a comprehensive promotion.

I have never been kicked out of Wildfire service. Always up and running.

Easy to perform tasks and quick to upload changes to your promotions.

Phone and email support were always available to us when we needed it.

Gave me a thorough rundown on everything the software does. Sometimes it is difficult to run through it all over the phone/internet, but I was able to figure it out myself.

Simple to use and very effective in increasing user engagement on both social channels and website. Noticeably helped raise TOS.

Wildfire was a merely an adequate social media tool when it existed as a standalone, but it just couldn't compete against other players like Sprout, Falcon, and Sprinklr.

Compared to Amazon Associates, I found Travelpayouts far easier to use and apply when I started working with affiliate partner programs. It was quick to join multiple travel programs and add affiliate tools such as links, widgets, and banners to the content I was writing in my travel blog, which is why Travelpayouts has become my preferred digital partnership platform.

• As with any social media management tool, there is a savings on labor hours (rather than doing the manual work)
• Aggregating all content into one system creates efficiencies for content teams
