Tapfiliate is a subscription-based service. This means you are billed a flat base rate monthly to keep your affiliate portal active, regardless of your current traffic volume.


When does billing start?

  • Automatic Transition: Billing begins the moment your free trial expires.

  • Trial Lengths: Typically, this is 7 days after sign-up for Launch plans and 14 days for Scale plans.

  • Seamless Service: We require payment details upfront to ensure that your affiliates do not experience a service interruption when the trial ends.


Understanding Your Invoice Components

Your monthly bill is composed of the following:

  • Base Rate: The standard cost of your chosen plan.

  • Overage Fees: If your program exceeds the number of clicks or conversions included in your plan, an overage fee is applied to your next invoice.

  • Prorated Upgrades: If you upgrade your plan mid-month, the change happens immediately. You will see a proration fee on your next bill to cover the price difference for the remainder of that cycle. For more information, refer to our Terms of Service.

  • VAT (EU Only): By law, a 21% VAT is added if you are an EU-based business and have not provided a valid VAT ID.

Note: We do not take commission on any conversions tracked. You only pay for the plan you've chosen, and any possible extras that apply to your specific case.


Legacy Feature: Tracking Events

Note: This section is only relevant for accounts created before April 2, 2016.

"Tracking events" were part of our original billing system. A tracking event is a record of any of the following:

  • Clicks: Each time an affiliate’s banner or text link is clicked.

  • Conversions: All conversions generated by your affiliates.

  • Trigger Actions: If you use our "Triggers" feature, each action fired counts as a tracking event.

Please check your specific subscription settings to see the number of tracking events included in your legacy plan.


Next Steps

  • Avoid Extra Taxes: If you are in the EU, ensure you set up your VAT ID correctly to avoid the 21% surcharge.

  • Monitor Usage: Keep an eye on your Dashboard to track your current click and conversion volume against your plan limits.
