1. Sign Up as a B2B SaaS
- Go to Reditus Sign Up and create an account.
- Use a business email to register.
- Complete all required fields during onboarding.
Note: We only support B2B SaaS companies. If you're looking to set up an affiliate program for e-commerce, online courses, or other business models, we will not be the right fit. Unsure if Reditus is for you? See here a video recording of the platform.
2. Create Your SaaS Affiliate Program
Once you’ve signed up, follow the onboarding process to set up your SaaS affiliate program.
- Company Details: Enter your company name, which will be used to create your custom affiliate landing page and sign-up page. Examples:
- Commission Structure: Set up the commission tiers for affiliates. You can modify this later, but one tier is required to start.
3. Technical Installation
See here an quick overview on how the Reditus platform tracks referrals for you, and all the steps needed to be able to do this.
Add the Reditus Tracking Script
To properly track referrals, you’ll need to add the tracking script to your website (including the sign-up page).
Important; The script must be active on all pages and do not place the script behind a cookie wall.
- Install it on all pages of your main domain.
- Ensure it’s also installed on the page where registrations/sign-ups happen.

Add the Sign-Up Snippet
Once the tracking script is live, you’ll need to add a snippet to your registration form. This snippet tracks successful sign-ups and attributes them to the right affiliate.
gr('track', 'conversion', { email: "email@example.com" });
- Replace
email@example.comwith the actual email from your sign-up form. - The snippet should only fire once, on successful new sign-ups.
- Ensure the snippet is active where your tracking script is installed.

6. Start Inviting Affiliates
Now that your program is set up, it’s time to start inviting affiliates! Here are some quick wins:
- Email your current users.
- Invite partners already promoting your SaaS.
- Add an "Affiliate Program" link to your website footer.
You’ll receive an auto-accept link that allows affiliates to be automatically approved.
7. Setup a CRM integration (or Slack)
To streamline onboarding and communication with your affiliates, integrate HubSpot or Slack with Reditus. These integrations make it easier to manage your affiliate relationships and keep track of important notifications.
-
HubSpot: Automatically sync new affiliate sign-ups, track engagement, and follow up directly through your HubSpot CRM. This is especially helpful for managing your pipeline of potential affiliates and ensuring no one slips through the cracks.
-
Slack: Get instant notifications in Slack whenever a new affiliate signs up or achieves key milestones. This can help you stay on top of affiliate activity and engage with them in real time during the onboarding process.
Using these integrations allows you to automate key aspects of the affiliate onboarding process and maintain strong communication, ensuring a smooth experience for both you and your affiliates.
8. Track Performance
Keep an eye on your affiliate program's performance through the Reditus dashboard. Monitor sign-ups, commissions, and top-performing affiliates.
Reditus is built for B2B SaaS companies aiming to grow their business through a reliable affiliate network. Follow these steps to ensure a successful affiliate program launch!
