Awin ‑ Affiliate Marketing

Awin is a great Affiliate Marketing Platform! I believe they're the largest network globally. When you become an advertiser you can find countless publishers around the globe to promote your store in return for a commission on each sale. With this app Awin provided a hassle free Technical Integration for your Shopify store. The only thing that would be still great to add would be a product feed integration, so that the Awin app can pull a product feed straight into your affiliate campaign - without having to pay for another app in order to have this. Thank you Awin!

Easy to install and worked quickly out the box. Awin is proving to be a great platform to expand our audience. Also - thanks for making it free too, makes the barrier to adoption much less internally. Thanks

So much easier than having to install the tag manually and risk not having accurate data. Great solution that can easily be developed for more advanced programmes in the future :)

Works fantastically, always offers accurate tracking information and makes dealing with our affiliate programme very easy.

WARNING!!! This app will charge you a $550 (!!!) setup fee. We live in Online Age. I have no idea why they charge these hefty unrealistic fees. Not only that, the monthly fee is $30. I do not recommend this app/provider, the fees are unfair. There are fair affiliate platforms that only charge a fee when an affiliate has made a sale of your product/service.

Horrible!!! Horrible!!!! Horrible APP!!! Do not install!!! They do NOT support the United STATES! To get a hold of anyone there is nearly in possible. To leverage there platform after paying the extreme set up fees is nearly impossible. I've had for a year and and not a single sale!

Brilliant app...saves me time manually integrating....and just to comment on the bad review below, I have run Awin program for years and at present easily taking 200k a year through there. Using Awin does not guarantee you sales, it only connects you to the world of possibilities...you have to do your own marketing there, its not going to come by itself..or you can hire someone to run your program for you. App does not charge you money...signing up to be a merchant on any affiliate network does, and sometimes even more.

Very disappointed with AWIN. They continue to send me invoices despite us leaving their programme 2 weeks ago. Despite me putting a lot of work into my programme, creating bespoke AWIN banners, offers, text links and even paying for advertising there has been a low number of click throughs and sales. I also had issues with one of their affiliates "Skimlinks" who converted all of my hard earned links from the national press into affiliate links, destroying my SEO work from the last 3 years. Not a great experience.

Fraudulent company. They'll take your money and then stop responding altogether. We had very little traffic attributable to Awin and no conversions over the course of several months. We tried to reach out to the Client Services team to get assistance, and they simply didn't respond. They charge exorbitant "start up fees" so that you can trade one email with a technical team who provides no guidance, because all you have to do install the Shopify app. I suspect they make most of their revenue signing up customers and then hoping they forget that the app is installed.

We do not recommend Awin. This company is impossible to deal with. The platform itself is extremely unintuitive. And if you want to close your account - you'll be waiting months! Do not open an account and please save yourself the trouble (I wish we had). We decided to close our account because being listed on AWIN facilitated our discount codes being shared on promotional websites. To decline commission requests is extremely difficult. But to accept them.... Very easy! The platform is set up for the benefit of the company and promoters (not the businesses using it). It was extremely difficult to find information about how to close our account. Once I did - I didn't hear back for a month. Then they tried to upsell me. Then they responded weeks later again saying we'll close your account in a month. Our account is still open! And I am still struggling to find out how we can suspend commissions and requests in the meantime. Please take the time to try and improve your service Awin - you've got a long way to go!

Absolutely disappointing service! The commission was suddenly miscalculated without any changes from our side, I can only guess that the app caused the issues. Unfortunately, I never received any answer to all of my urgent emails seeking support.

From my experience Awin is simply the best Affiliate Network I have worked with; I was able to easily build my network according with my publishers preference. The platform is very intuitive with the opportunity to test strategies and integrate tools; finally their support is just amazing! Fully recommended.

Avoid this app. You won't get any benefits for your business.

I wish i would have read more reviews before installing AWIN. The platform sneaks sales through you didn't approve and they continue to send invoices for sales they didn't drive.

ok I do not know how to describe awin. - They take attribution of pretty much all the sales they can possibly can, even if they are not driven by awin. - Even if you cancel the commisions for the affiliates, they will try to charge you. - we have had custom made orders from customers that we had for years that they attribute themselves, claiming that the customer had a "cookie". i do really believe is a bit of a scam, we will not recommend.

does not work

The so-called “Essentials Service” from AWIN is a huge disappointment. It consists of just two emails explaining how to link your shop, with no meaningful support beyond that. The service fees are exorbitantly high and the billing process is confusing. After over a month of use, I’ve seen zero effective traffic or conversions from AWIN. Completely ineffective and not worth the cost.

I've spent months talking to Awin support explaining that this app doesnt work for syncing product feeds and they keep just sending me documentation to the set the app up. I've already set it up but IT DOESNT WORK.

Great app, and a fantastic team behin it!

I have been working for a big Dutch brand, and we are working with AWIN for over 2 years now. The service is very good, we have account management & we always get very quick help. The revenue from affiliate marketing is insane for both top funnel and lower funnel. I would recommend all big brands, but also small brands to work with AWIN to increase revenue.
