Dub Alternative
The best Dub.co alternative for affiliate programs in 2026
Dub is an excellent link-management and analytics platform. But affiliate features (Dub Partners) only unlock on the $75/month Business plan, and affiliate payouts carry a 3-5% fee on top. Affiliate Manager is a purpose-built affiliate platform at $9/month flat with no payout fees.
