## The answer, as recorded

> Here's how I'd rank them, assuming "agency" means you're running programs for multiple clients and need decent multi-account handling, not just one program.

> **1. Everflow** - My default recommendation for agencies. It's built as partner-marketing infrastructure rather than a network, so you get click-level analytics, fraud tooling, and the ability to run affiliates, influencers, and media buying partners under one roof. Agencies and networks are a core customer segment for them. Entry is around $750/mo, and realistically quote-based above that.
> 
> **2. impact.com** - The one to pick when clients want enterprise-grade contracts, real partner discovery, and multi-country/multi-currency handling. It's also strategically the safest bet right now: Rakuten Advertising is migrating its affiliate programs onto impact.com's tracking tech and refocusing on program management, which consolidates a lot of the ecosystem onto Impact.

> 
> **3. Awin (now including ShareASale)** - The network play, and the strong
