Switch Affiliate Software
and keep your affiliates

Move your affiliate program to LinkJolt from Tolt, Rewardful, FirstPromoter or Affonso, or from a CSV file. Paste an API key, check the preview, and your affiliates arrive with their status, payout emails and old link handles, so the links they already shared keep tracking.

The short answer

Can I switch affiliate software without losing my affiliates?

Yes. LinkJolt's importer reads your affiliates from Tolt, Rewardful, FirstPromoter or Affonso with an API key it never stores, or from a CSV file, and adds them to one of your campaigns with their approved or pending status, their PayPal or Wise payout email and their old link handle. With the LinkJolt tracking script on your site, the links they already shared keep crediting them. You run it yourself, in a few minutes, and nothing is written until you approve the preview.

What comes across

Everything the other platform knows about who your affiliates are and how to pay them, read once and checked before it is written.

Every affiliate, with their status

Name and email for each affiliate. Approved or active affiliates arrive approved; pending ones, and any status the importer does not recognise, wait for your approval; anyone the old platform marked disabled, denied, suspicious or rejected is skipped and listed with the reason.

PayPal and Wise payout emails

Where the old platform holds a PayPal or Wise email for an affiliate, it comes across as their payout email, ready for the PayPal and Wise CSV export.

The links they already shared

Each affiliate's old link handle is kept. With the LinkJolt script on your site, a visit arriving with ?via=, ?fpr= or ?ref= is credited to the affiliate who owns that handle.

A preview before anything is written

The review shows who will be created, who is already here, who is skipped and why. Nothing is created until you approve it, and the import is read again fresh when you do.

Safe to run again

Re-running an import recognises everyone already on your program and never duplicates them. A rejected affiliate stays rejected, and an email that already has a LinkJolt affiliate account outside your program is never attached: invite them instead.

A report of what happened

When the import finishes, download a CSV that lists every affiliate created, added, already here, skipped or not imported, with the old link handle and payout email for each one created.

Setup

Four steps, from the Affiliates page

The same four steps the Import affiliates wizard walks you through after you sign up.

Keep the old platform running for a week after the import, and switch it off once you have seen sales land in LinkJolt.

1

Pick where your affiliates are now

On the Affiliates page, click Import affiliates and choose Tolt, Rewardful, FirstPromoter or Affonso, or upload a CSV instead.

2

Connect

Paste an API key from the old platform and click Check key, so a wrong key fails here and not halfway through. Or upload the CSV.

3

Choose the campaign

Everyone in the import joins one active campaign. Create the campaign with your commission terms first.

4

Review, then import

Read the preview, run the import, and download the report. Each affiliate has a LinkJolt tracking link straight away.

Where each key lives, and what it brings

  • ToltSettings, then Integrations, copy your API key; pick the program to bring across. Brings partners, payout details and their link handles.
  • RewardfulCompany Settings, then API, copy your API Secret. Brings affiliates, PayPal and Wise emails, and link handles.
  • FirstPromoterSettings, then Integrations, copy your API key. Brings promoters, referral handles and PayPal emails.
  • AffonsoOpen your program, go to Connect, then API, and create a key. Brings affiliates, tracking handles and payout emails.
  • CSVAny platform that can export a list. Only an email column is required; up to 1 MB and 2,000 affiliates.

The key is used for this import's requests only and is not saved anywhere. The importer only reads your affiliate list; it changes nothing on the other platform.

How old links keep tracking

The import keeps each affiliate's link handle (their first one, where they had several). When a visitor lands on a page of your site that loads the LinkJolt tracking script, with one of these parameters and no LinkJolt link, the script looks the handle up and credits the affiliate who owns it:

  • ?via=Rewardful
  • ?fpr=FirstPromoter
  • ?ref=Tolt and Affonso

Handles resolve only for your own program, on active campaigns, for approved or pending affiliates. Every imported affiliate also gets a new LinkJolt tracking link straight away, to share from now on.

What stays behind

The importer brings people and payout details, not history. Plan for these three before you switch the old platform off.

Click and sale history

Past clicks, sales and commissions stay on the old platform. Export them there before you close it if you need a record.

Discount codes

Codes are not imported. Register the codes your affiliates already share on the Coupons page so sales made with them are credited to the right affiliate.

Logins and connected payout accounts

Imported affiliates start without a LinkJolt login and get no email from the import, and Stripe payout accounts do not carry over. Pay them from the PayPal or Wise CSV export with the payout email that came across.

FAQ

Switching affiliate software FAQs

What merchants ask before moving their program

Which affiliate platforms can I import from?

Tolt, Rewardful, FirstPromoter and Affonso, by pasting an API key from the platform, plus a CSV file from any platform that can export one. The CSV needs only an email column; name, PayPal email, Wise email, status and link handle columns are read when they are there.

Is my API key stored?

No. The key is used for the requests of the import you are running and is never saved or logged, and the importer only reads your affiliate list: it changes nothing on the other platform. You can delete the key there once the import is done.

Will the links my affiliates already shared keep working?

Yes, once the LinkJolt tracking script is on your site. The import keeps each affiliate's link handle from the old platform (their first one, where they had several). A visitor who lands on your site with ?via= (Rewardful), ?fpr= (FirstPromoter) or ?ref= (Tolt and Affonso) and no LinkJolt link is credited to the affiliate who owns that handle, the same way a click on their new LinkJolt link is.

What does not come across?

Click and sale history, past commissions and discount codes. Your affiliates, their approved or pending status, their PayPal or Wise payout email and their old link handles come across; commission history stays on the old platform, so export it there if you need it. Register the discount codes your affiliates already share in LinkJolt so sales made with them are credited to the right affiliate.

Do my affiliates have to sign up again?

No. The import creates each affiliate on your chosen campaign with a new LinkJolt tracking link, sends them no email, and does not need them to do anything. Imported affiliates start without a LinkJolt login, so you pay them from the CSV export for PayPal or Wise, using the payout email that came across.

How many affiliates can I import?

Up to 2,000 in one run; run the import again to bring the rest, and anyone already imported is recognised and not duplicated. On the Starter plan, which allows 10 active affiliates, an import that would go over the limit stops before anything is written; Professional and above have no affiliate limit.
