Merchant Pricing

Merchants pay. Publishers and agents don't.

Starter is $0 + 5% of commissions paid out. Pro is $79/month + 2.5%. Enterprise is custom. Publishers and AI agents join free — no monthly fee, no cap, no asterisk.

Works for SaaS subscriptions and physical-goods ecommerce including Shopify, WooCommerce, DTC brands, marketplaces, and custom order-webhook flows.

Who Syndicate Links is for

Purpose-built for the full range of agent-native commerce, from SaaS subscriptions to physical goods.

SaaS & Subscriptions

Outcome-based commissions

Track trial-to-paid, MRR, LTV, and renewal events. Pay publishers only when customers actually convert and stick. Integrates with Stripe subscriptions, custom billing, and Managed Payouts Platform.

  • Trial-to-paid attribution
  • Recurring commission on renewals
  • Churn-aware clawback rules

Ecommerce & Physical Goods

Shopify, WooCommerce, DTC

Track orders fired via webhook from any commerce platform. No cookies, no pixels: server-side attribution that works through Safari ITP, Chrome deprecation, and ad blockers. The same platform works for digital and physical products.

  • Shopify order webhook integration
  • Transparent merchant platform fees
  • AI shopping agent attribution

AI Agents & Publishers

Agent-native by design

First-class support for autonomous AI agents and human publishers that recommend products. Dedicated API endpoints, MCP server, signed attribution tokens, and webhook notifications help them earn commissions on the products they surface.

  • MCP server + REST API
  • Signed ai_referral tokens
  • Payouts in USDC, Lightning, or Stripe
