What do you like best about ShareASale?

As Shareasale is part of Awin it's a guarantee that this network is very professional towards their clients and always promptly helps if you face any issue. Shareasale has only premium affiliates, not influencers, mostly as we see on Awin. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ShareASale?

The thing to dislike most about Shareasale is you have to be very specific to launch program on it as it requires basic 100$ fees for per merchant setup that's need to be maintained and you can only launch merchants that can be ROI positive with them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ShareASale solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have one merchant which have mostly users from US market so we launched it on Shareasale network, till now merchant is performing very well with them and we're discussing with Awin Global team to launch more programs on Shareasale. Shareasale helps us in to retain this merchant by registering sales through affiliates on them and all traffic is of premium quality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ShareASale?

BEWARE OF THIS COMPANY! I HAVE LOST THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS ON FRAUDULENT ORDERS.

CUSTOMER SERVICE DOES NOT ANSWER THE PHONE, NOR DO THEY RETURN CALLS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ShareASale?

We have used Shareasale for years without incident. For several months we have lost thousands of dollars on fraudulent orders. We traced them all to Shareasale affiliates.

We tried to contact Shareasale immediately for help. I left messages, and no one has returned a call.

I guess Shareasale no longer vets their affiliates because scam affiliates are now robbing the merchants. I consider this site extremely dangerous now.

My recommendation is to run away from this company as fast as you can. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ShareASale solving and how is that benefiting you?

They are not helping at all. They are creating a nightmare that has cost us thousands. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ShareASale?

Very easy to setup and run, versus something like partnerdash which I had to contact support to remove a declined application just to reapply for a chance somewhere else.

Plus strong brands and huge variety Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ShareASale?

I had so many false clicks or whatever they are called by shareasale. Basically when the social platform crawler would click over it counted as a click, so I'm wondering why 1,300 clicks in I have not got a sale. Very frustrating Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ShareASale solving and how is that benefiting you?

The hassle of getting sponsored or having to work with friends through sponsorship deals etc You can just use something like Sarah sale and become a publisher and honestly they have a great selection of banners and it's really easy to set up your own custom links Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ShareASale?

Their affiliate program is a joke, as you can see in other reviews. They have terrible communication and customer service. Search out their competitors you'll have a much better experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ShareASale solving and how is that benefiting you?

They clame to offer a variety of integrated services which can help you establish, build and grow your Affiliate program. I disagree with the former however. They can help you with integrated services technically. They don't make it easy to establish, build and grow your affiliate program. There are much better options.

What do you like best about ShareASale?

What I like best about Shareasale is the the large pool of affiliates in the program. Also, you can customize commissions in a variety of ways to fit each affiliate or business model. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ShareASale?

My only dislike that when I am looking at reporting metrics, I do not see Shareasale's commission, so I have to manually calculate it when looking at reports. Not a big deal, but I wish the reporting was a bit more transparent to save me some time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ShareASale solving and how is that benefiting you?

Shareasale is great at keeping my prospects and customers' eyes reminded of my brand. My brand receives a significant amount of traffic and sales from Shareasale's affiliate network. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

ShareASale IS A GOOD AND A LARGE NETWORK WITH A WIDE RANGE OF PRODUCTS TO MARKET. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ShareASale?

LOTS OF VENDORS IN THE NETWORK ARE INACTIVE FOR A QUITE LONG PERIOD. SOME OF THE GIFT VOUCHERS ARE NOT WORKING. SHOULD IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF THE SERVICE. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ShareASale solving and how is that benefiting you?

IT PROVIDES PRODUCTS FOR MY AFFILIATE MARKETING. IT BRIDGES ME WITH THE PRODUCTS' VENDORS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ShareASale?

ShareASale's UX is very intuitive for the most part and easy to navigate vs. some other affiliate networks I've used in the past. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ShareASale?

The user experience with questions is challenging. If you have a question about the platform or on-boarding you're often directed to a video tutorial rather than a real person to ask questions to. Due to bandwidth, that was extremely challenging and time consuming to have to take the time to watch through full videos to see where my question might be answered (if at all). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ShareASale solving and how is that benefiting you?

It brings together the main affiliates we'd like to work with and takes the manual work out of tracking and payment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ShareASale?

The layout is fresh and clear and easy to navigate. There are multiple merchants to work with in numerous niches. I like the datafeed integration. It's less cluttered than others and returns less errors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ShareASale?

I would like to see more merchants from outside the USA working with shareasale. When you search for UK merchants as an example, it's not as easy as it should be to separate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ShareASale solving and how is that benefiting you?

Access to datafeeds of various merchants within the travel and retail industry. Easy implementation of various affiliate products within my websites, downloadable in different formats. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about ShareASale?

The setup with it was fairly easy, from all aspects (development, marketing) and the campaigns seemed to run seemlessly. The features are very useful for a start in affiliate/ partner programs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ShareASale?

As the traffic grows and there are more affiliates coming in, the user interface and the reporting system does not fulfill the new requirements. It becomes difficult to properly monitor what comes in and what goes out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is ShareASale solving and how is that benefiting you?

Same as any affiliate marketing platform, it helps to get all aspects of a collaboration, centralized in one place. Meaning all contracts, marketing materials, coupons and links are there available for the affiliate to get the campaign going. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
