What PartnerStack is
PartnerStack is a partner relationship management platform for SaaS companies building or expanding partner programs. It supports affiliate, referral, co-sell, and influencer relationships, and lets companies manage multiple programs alongside one another. PartnerStack can promote programs to active partners and help recruit through partner discovery and invitations.
Companies can create automated onboarding journeys and give partners training and resources. The platform tracks partner-sourced leads, revenue, rewards paid, and lifecycle stages. It calculates commissions and pays partners through the platform, while the company receives a single invoice. Integrations connect with marketing, sales, account mapping, and AI visibility tools; an API is available for custom integrations.
PartnerStack runs on web and API. Its plans include guided onboarding and initial setup, and the company says accounts have no limit on partners or internal users. Enterprise adds a designated customer success manager and priority support. Pricing depends on program size, feature needs, and support level, with the final amount confirmed during a demo. PartnerStack says it became part of AppDirect in April 2026.
