What SocialLoop ships
Per-tier commission structure
Set different commission rates for VIP, premium, and general admission. Affiliates know exactly what they earn per ticket type before they start promoting.
Automated Stripe payouts
No Venmo. No spreadsheets. No manual reconciliation. Stripe Connect calculates commission per sale and sends payout post-event. Affiliates onboard their own Stripe; SocialLoop handles the math.
Per-affiliate promo codes that auto-apply
Each affiliate gets a unique promo code. When guests arrive through their link, the code applies automatically. No copy-paste, no friction.
Trackable smart links with attribution at redirect
Every sale tags the affiliate, campaign, link, and platform that drove it. Real-time dashboard shows tickets sold, revenue, commission — updated live for both you and the affiliate.
AI-generated platform-tailored captions
When you invite an affiliate, SocialLoop generates ready-to-post captions for Instagram, X, TikTok, and LinkedIn — in your event's voice, with their tracking embedded. They post; you measure.
Privacy-walled distribution
Affiliates drive bookings without seeing your guest list. They see their own attribution data; you see everything. Structural fix to a category-wide trust gap.
Community-partner-ready
The same infrastructure works for individual promoters, newsletters, organizations, and community partners. The community-partner motion is first-class — not an afterthought.
Why this matters
Most event hosts who want to use affiliates end up stitching together: ticketing on Eventbrite, an affiliate tool on top (PartnerStack, Rewardful, custom), Mailchimp for promoter emails, Canva for promoter assets, a spreadsheet for commission reconciliation, and Venmo for payouts.
SocialLoop replaces all of that with one studio. The affiliate program isn't an add-on — it's the platform.
The host has the vision. AI handles the execution.
How SocialLoop compares
PartnerStack / Rewardful. Built for SaaS recurring revenue. Doesn't understand ticket tiers, event capacity, or one-time event commission cycles.
SocialLoop: Native event-affiliate infrastructure with ticket-tier commissions, post-event payout cycles, and AI-generated promoter assets.
Posh. Strong on nightlife-promoter-driven events. Less suited for recurring tech meetups, conferences, retreats, or community-partner motion.
SocialLoop: Same automated-payout depth, plus operator coverage across recurring + ticketed events of every kind — tech, nightlife, conferences, retreats, supper clubs.
Ticket Fairy. Event-specific affiliate features, but nightlife-leaning. Limited operator depth beyond ticket sales.
SocialLoop: Affiliates as one feature in an end-to-end platform — AI event creation, immersive invitation pages, AI campaigns, source attribution, scoped team access.
Manual setup (Eventbrite + spreadsheet + Venmo). The legacy stack. Slow, error-prone, doesn't scale past ~5 affiliates.
SocialLoop: One studio. Onboard 50 affiliates in 10 minutes. Stripe handles every payout.
Common questions
Where can I sell event tickets with affiliates?
On SocialLoop. Define commission rates per ticket tier, invite affiliates in bulk, equip them with AI-generated platform-tailored captions and trackable smart links, and Stripe Connect handles automated commission payouts post-event. End-to-end, AI-native — no manual reconciliation, no Venmo, no spreadsheets.
How do I set up an event affiliate program?
In SocialLoop you define commission rates per ticket tier (VIP, premium, general admission can each have different rates), invite affiliates by email or import a list, and the platform generates per-affiliate promo codes and trackable smart links automatically. Affiliates promote on their own channels; SocialLoop tracks every sale by source and pays commissions through Stripe Connect after the event.
How do event affiliates get paid?
Automatically, through Stripe Connect, after the event closes. Each affiliate connects their own Stripe account during onboarding. SocialLoop calculates commission per ticket sold via that affiliate (using their unique promo code or smart link), and Stripe sends the payout post-event. No manual reconciliation, no Venmo transfers, no commission spreadsheets.
How is SocialLoop different from PartnerStack or Rewardful?
PartnerStack and Rewardful are general-purpose affiliate platforms — built for SaaS recurring revenue, not events. They do not understand ticket tiers, event capacity, or one-time event commission cycles. SocialLoop is built natively for event ticket affiliate programs: per-tier commissions, secret allotments, application-gated tickets, post-event payout cycles, and AI-generated platform-tailored social captions per affiliate. The affiliate program is a feature of the event platform, not a separate tool.
Can affiliates see my guest list or attendee contacts?
No. SocialLoop ships privacy-walled affiliate distribution: affiliates drive bookings without seeing your attendee contact lists. They see attribution data — which sales they drove, commission earned — but never your private guest list. This is a structural fix to a category-wide trust gap.
How does commission tracking work?
Each affiliate gets a unique promo code (auto-applied when guests use their link) plus a trackable smart link with attribution captured at redirect. Every ticket sold logs which affiliate, which campaign, which channel, which platform drove the purchase. Real-time dashboard shows the affiliate their tickets sold, revenue driven, commission earned — updated live.
What about community partners — newsletters and organizations distributing my events?
Same infrastructure. SocialLoop's affiliate program supports both individual promoters (commission-driven nightlife / concert promoters) and community partners (newsletters, organizations, influencer-led communities) — privacy-walled, automated payout, attribution-tracked. The community-partner motion is first-class, not a workaround.
Do I need a separate affiliate platform on top of my event ticketing tool?
No. That is the legacy stack: Eventbrite + a separate affiliate tool + Mailchimp + Canva + a spreadsheet. SocialLoop replaces all of it with one studio. Affiliates are a feature of the platform, not an add-on.
What kind of events benefit most from running an affiliate program?
Recurring + ticketed events distributed through community partners — recurring tech meetups, professional networking events, festivals with multiple promoter-driven channels, concerts, mid-size conferences. The common thread: you have an audience that other people's audiences overlap with, and you want their reach without their guest lists.
Run your first affiliate program
If you run recurring or ticketed events, your community is your distribution. Make their reach scalable. The first event is free to create.
