Yes. If you mean commission-based / pay-for-performance creator partnerships used for growth marketing, there are several good options. They generally fall into two buckets:

1) Creator/affiliate partnership platforms

These are designed specifically to recruit, track, and pay creators on performance.

  • Impact.com – Strong for affiliate, influencer, and partnership programs with robust tracking, attribution, and commissions.
  • PartnerStack – Popular for B2B SaaS partner and affiliate programs; good for recurring commissions.
  • GRIN – More creator/influencer oriented, with campaign management and performance tracking.
  • Aspire – Influencer + creator partnerships, with affiliate-style compensation options.
  • Upfluence – Creator discovery plus affiliate tracking/management.
  • Linqia – More enterprise influencer marketing, sometimes used for performance-based campaigns.
  • Refersion – Simple affiliate/creator commission tracking, often used by DTC brands.
  • Awin / CJ Affiliate / Rakuten Advertising – Classic affiliate networks with creator partners and broad publisher access.

2) Creator affiliate marketplaces

These help you find creators who are open to commission-based deals.

  • ShopMy – Strong creator commerce/affiliate model, especially in beauty/fashion/lifestyle.
  • LTK – Influencer commerce platform with affiliate monetization for creators.
  • Amazon Influencer Program – Commission-based for product recommendation creators.
  • YouTube Shopping / affiliate integrations – Useful for product-led creator monetization.
  • TikTok Shop Affiliate – Very performance-oriented for creators driving product sales.

Best fits by goal

  • DTC / ecommerce: Refersion, Impact, Awin, CJ, TikTok Shop Affiliate, ShopMy
  • B2B SaaS: PartnerStack, Impact
  • Influencer + affiliate hybrid: GRIN, Aspire, Upfluence
  • Enterprise partnerships: Impact, Rakuten, CJ

What to look for

If your goal is growth marketing and pay-for-performance, prioritize programs/tools that offer:

  • Unique tracking links / promo codes
  • Recurring commission support
  • Postback / server-side attribution
  • Fraud detection
  • Easy creator onboarding and payouts
  • Creator discovery or marketplace access

If you want, I can also give you:

  1. a shortlist by industry (SaaS, ecommerce, apps), or
  2. a comparison table of the best commission-based creator partnership platforms.
