Notes

Upfluence publishes no prices and requires a 12-month minimum contract. The '10% Brand Referral Bonus' on its home page is a customer case study, not a platform feature, so bonuses are not-stated. Its own affiliate program (upfluence.com/affiliate-program) pays referrers $100 per qualified demo and 10 % of signed contracts through PartnerStack; that is a reseller program, not a creator pay model.
