Overview
FirstPromoter is built for subscription businesses that need commissions to respond to the customer lifecycle. It supports recurring rewards, coupon attribution, campaign rules, fraud controls, reporting, and partner communications.
Compared with a lighter tracker, FirstPromoter exposes more controls for teams that expect to operate multiple campaigns or need deeper reporting. That depth also means the initial program design deserves more attention.
