Partnerize vs. Pepperjam Ascend

For websites or platforms that want to create affiliate content, Partnerize hosts a number of merchants across a wide range of retailers and so on, providing an easy way to connect publishers with merchants.

However, its interface could be more intuitive in terms of navigation and in providing more in-depth reporting so you can see what articles and links are driving conversion.

For our business, affiliate marketing is by far the lowest ROI marketing channel. If you're looking to get products, brands, and offers listed on coupon sites, Pepperjam Ascend is a great tool. If you're looking to engage with influencers or drive sales without giving away margin, Pepperjam Ascend is likely not for you.

• The dashboard/platform is the furthest thing from user-friendly. It looks like a high school student with zero experience designed it in excel and hoped for the best with the results.
• Reports are hit and miss. They may load, they may not! It's ridiculous, in my opinion.
• No mobile options whatsoever, everything has to be desktop. It's 2022, they need to catch up!

Awin is a far friendlier and easier to use interface, though Partnerize offers a different variety of merchants

Pepperjam Ascend's user interface is way behind these other platforms. It's not intuitive nor is it easy to create custom reports and engage with your publishers. We have been stuck with Pepperjam and many other affiliate networks have a very similar layout without much upside.

• Analysing revenue streams
• Maintaining affiliate relationships

• I was hitting anywhere from $130 - $450 per month in commission payout before Pepperjam Ascend. Now with Pepperjam Ascend, I maybe get $40! I am still waiting on payouts from January.
