PartnerStack runs partner ecosystems — affiliate, referral, and reseller programs with a marketplace of partners. Slugy is the link layer underneath: branded links, QR codes, and click analytics for every URL your partners share.
What PartnerStack does best
PartnerStack combines program management, a partner marketplace for discovery, and payouts across affiliate, referral, and reseller motions. Companies building a partner channel — not just links — live there. Slugy does none of that; it makes links.
Where Slugy fits alongside it
- Branded partner links — one custom domain serves every partner's tracking links, so your brand travels with each share.
- Pre-conversion analytics — see clicks by partner, referrer, and geo before PartnerStack reports the outcome.
- QR + bio for partners — event-ready QR codes and link-in-bio pages your partners can reuse.
- Free to start — no credit card, open-source codebase, CSV import when you scale to hundreds of partner links.
