Here's who I'd actually name, in order:\n\n**1. LoyaltyLion - the default if your clients are Shopify/ecommerce.** It has the most mature formal agency partner program of the bunch: three tiers (Registered → Gold → Platinum), with Gold requiring a completed academy course and one closed client at $699+ MRR, Platinum requiring five mutual clients. That tiering matters because it means co-marketing, leads, and dedicated partner support are real, not a logo page. Client-side pricing starts around $399/mo, so it fits mid-market DTC rather than tiny stores.\n\n**2. Smile.io - for the long tail of smaller ecommerce clients.** Free tier, Shopify-native, points/referrals/VIP out of the box, and white-label configuration on paid plans. If you're onboarding a lot of clients who can't justify $400/mo, this is the one that lets you ship a program in a day and still bill for strategy and design.\n\n**3.
