Migration
Moving your affiliate program off Mantle
Mantle (HeyMantle) is winding down. The affiliate programs Shopify app developers ran on it are scheduled for deletion, including affiliates, referral codes and history. For that program, affilut is a natural home: Stripe-native tracking, a flat fee, 0% of your revenue, and you pay affiliates directly. Bring your Mantle affiliates across before they're gone.
The short version
Mantle bundled affiliate programs alongside its analytics and merchant-comms suite for Shopify app devs. With Mantle shutting down, you need a dedicated affiliate tool that keeps your program running without a gap. Affiliate tracking is the one job affilut does, from conversions to the balance you owe each affiliate. It does it Stripe-first, which is how most Shopify app developers already bill. Export from Mantle, preview what imports, and land your program on affilut.
How the migration works
Export your affiliate program from Mantle and run it through the free import checker. The export can be your affiliates or partners file plus any referral and payout files, or a JSON dump. The checker shows exactly what comes across: affiliates de-duplicated on email, their referral codes, tracked referrals and recorded payouts. It also flags any rows that need a second look. Then you start your affilut program and bring them in.
Where affilut is different
- Purpose-built for affiliates, not one module inside a broader suite that's now closing.
- Stripe-native tracking — connects read-only and attributes from charge metadata; no pixel or SDK.
- 0% of your revenue and 0% payout fees — flat pricing gated only on tracked revenue; you pay affiliates directly.
- A curated candidate database to keep recruiting after the move.
What you should check
affilut is focused on affiliate tracking: conversions, and the balances you owe and settle directly. If you relied on Mantle for churn analytics or merchant messaging, you'll want separate tools for those. The affiliate program itself holds the referral relationships you can't easily rebuild, and affilut is designed to take it on directly.

Frequently asked questions
Can I bring my Mantle affiliates and codes into affilut?
Yes — that's exactly what the free Mantle import checker is for. Export your program from Mantle and upload it. You'll see how many affiliates, referral codes, referrals and payouts import cleanly before you commit. Because affilut de-duplicates affiliates on email, their existing referral codes carry over.
How long do I have?
Mantle's affiliate data is scheduled for deletion as it winds down, so export sooner rather than later — once it's gone, the referral history can't be recovered. Moving early keeps your program running without a gap.
