Technology partners

White-label deals, an API, and embeds for tools that already have a SaaS-buying audience.

SaaSTweaks runs the editorial layer, the affiliate router, and the deal database. Technology partners plug that catalog into their own product through an API, an embeddable widget, or a co-branded deals page.

The Technology track is for software companies whose users are already shopping for SaaS tools. Browser extensions, accounting platforms, finance dashboards, expense trackers, deal-discovery apps, vertical SaaS marketplaces, and procurement tools all share the same gap: their users ask "what should I switch to?" and the product has no answer. SaaSTweaks fills that answer with a maintained catalog of 600+ deals, comparison pages, and editorial reviews.

What partners get

Three integration shapes are supported, in increasing order of effort.

Embeds

A drop-in JavaScript snippet that renders a deals widget inside any web app. Partners pick the category filter (CRM, accounting, hosting, etc.) and the visual variant (card grid, single hero, ticker). The widget pulls live deal data, handles affiliate routing through the partner's sub-id, and reports clicks back through a webhook. Setup time is under 30 minutes.

REST API

For partners that want to render deals natively inside their own UI, the REST API exposes the full catalog: deals, comparisons, alternatives, categories, verticals, pricing snapshots, and historical price changes. Rate limits start at 1,000 requests per minute. Sub-id tracking is automatic via an HTTP header.

White-label deal hubs

For partners with significant traffic, SaaSTweaks builds a co-branded micro-site under the partner's domain (deals.partner.com). Editorial, design, and affiliate routing are handled end-to-end. Partners review monthly content calendars and approve any vendor relationships that conflict with their own.

Commercial terms

All three shapes share the same revenue split: 50% of net affiliate commission paid monthly. There is no minimum traffic threshold and no upfront fee. Partners that drive more than 10,000 clicks per month qualify for a custom rate negotiated case by case.

Who this fits

Three partner archetypes account for most of the technology track. First, finance and accounting tools (Ramp, Brex, Pleo, Spendesk) whose users review SaaS spend and would benefit from showing alternatives in-app. Second, browser extensions and productivity layers (Rewind, Mem, Notion-adjacent tools) that want a deals tab without building a content team. Third, vertical SaaS that lists complementary tools (a project-management app showing CRM deals, a CRM showing email-marketing deals).

What this is not

The Technology track is not a referral program for individual users. Engineering teams looking for a personal commission on a single SaaS purchase belong in the Creators track. Newsletter teams whose readers click directly to a deal page also belong in Creators. Technology is reserved for product integrations where deals are surfaced inside another product's UI.

Next steps

The intake form gathers the integration shape, expected click volume, target categories, and a single technical contact. A partnerships manager replies within two business days with API credentials, a Stripe Connect onboarding link, and a sandboxed widget for review.

Frequently asked questions

Is there an upfront fee?

No. The partnership is purely revenue share. SaaSTweaks earns nothing if the integration sends no clicks.

How long does integration take?

The JavaScript embed averages 30 minutes including styling. The REST API averages 1-2 weeks for a production rollout. White-label hubs take 4-6 weeks.

Can the deals catalog be filtered by category?

Yes. Every endpoint and widget accepts a category and vertical filter. Partners commonly scope to 3-5 categories that match their product.

How is the 50% revenue share calculated?

On net commission received from the vendor. Refunds, chargebacks, and reversals reduce the payable amount the same month they hit our account.

What happens if a deal expires while shown in the partner's UI?

The widget and API auto-hide expired deals within 5 minutes of the change. The catalog is the single source of truth.

Are there exclusivity terms?

No. Partners can run other affiliate catalogs in parallel. SaaSTweaks does not require category exclusivity in either direction.

Can the embed be styled?

Yes. CSS variables expose color, radius, font, and spacing tokens. Two visual variants (compact and expanded) ship by default.

What reporting is included?

A partner dashboard shows clicks, conversions, gross commission, partner share, and per-deal performance with daily granularity.

How are conflicts of interest handled?

Partners can blocklist any deal or vendor from the API response. Common conflicts (a partner's direct competitors) are excluded by default during onboarding.

Is there a developer API doc?

Yes. Public docs are at /partners/technology/docs once the partnership is signed. A sandboxed Postman collection ships with credentials.
