Lots of startups nowadays use referral models where you get free usage credits or something similar when friends or colleagues sign up via your personal link. Dropbox famously used this method to grow their user base.
If I understand correctly affiliate programs are different in that they are more geared towards affiliates promoting a service in exchange for actual money. Is this a common model for SaaS companies? Curious to hear some examples which we might know.
Rewards can be structured in a ton of ways (one time reward, recurring, percentage, flat, etc) and it's good for any business model, not just SaaS.
And you're right, they are almost always cash rewards instead of service rewards like Dropbox does. That is more of referral marketing than affiliate marketing.
