Affiliate Program Reporting & Analytics for SaaS

Understanding and optimizing your affiliate program is crucial for predictable, scalable growth in B2B SaaS. Reditus gives you full-funnel visibility so you can see exactly how affiliates impact revenue, not just clicks.

Core Metrics to Monitor

1. Click-to-Signup Conversion Rate

Measures how effectively affiliates turn traffic into signups.

  • Healthy range (B2B SaaS): ~2–8%
  • Use it to:
  • Identify affiliates sending unqualified traffic
  • Spot landing pages that need CRO work

If low:

  • Check audience–offer fit per affiliate
  • A/B test landing page headlines, CTAs, and social proof

2. Signup-to-Paid Conversion Rate

Shows whether affiliate-referred users become paying customers.

  • Healthy range (B2B SaaS): ~5–15%
  • Use it to:
  • Validate lead quality from each affiliate
  • Align incentives with revenue, not vanity signups

If an affiliate has many signups but few paid conversions:

  • Review their messaging and promises
  • Tighten qualification criteria or adjust commission model

3. MRR from Affiliates

Your primary ROI metric for the affiliate channel.

  • What to track:
  • Total MRR from affiliate-referred customers
  • Net changes from upgrades, downgrades, and cancellations
  • Use it to:
  • Justify program investment
  • Compare affiliate channel performance vs. other channels

Reditus automatically attributes MRR to the correct affiliate and updates it as subscriptions change.

4. Revenue Per Click (RPC)

Normalizes performance across affiliates with different traffic volumes.

  • Formula: Total affiliate-attributed revenue ÷ total affiliate clicks
  • Use it to:
  • Identify high-value, low-volume affiliates
  • Decide where to invest co-marketing or higher commissions

5. Churn Rate by Affiliate

Reveals whether certain affiliates drive customers who leave faster.

  • Use it to:
  • Detect misaligned expectations in affiliate messaging
  • Prioritize enablement for affiliates with higher churn

If churn is consistently high from one affiliate, review their content, promises, and targeting.
