Affiliate Marketing ReferrLy (5.0★, 1,138 reviews) and Referral Candy & Affiliate (4.9★, 1,480 reviews) are essentially tied on rating. Look at review velocity and individual reviewer quotes — both visible on each app's detail page — to differentiate.
Affiliate Marketing ReferrLy holds the higher average rating (5.0★ vs 4.9★). That is the one dimension AppRanks can separate them on here — read both apps' detail pages for the feature breakdown and recent listing changes.

AppRanks cannot say which fits a larger or smaller operation — there is no store-size measurement in the Shopify App Store data. What it can show: Affiliate Marketing ReferrLy has 1,138 published reviews; Referral Candy & Affiliate has 1,480 published reviews. Compare plan limits and pricing tiers against your own volume.
Migration support varies by app and category. Affiliate Marketing ReferrLy and Referral Candy & Affiliate both publish their export options on their marketplace listing pages (or in their support docs); some apps offer one-click import from competitors, others require CSV. The fastest check: search "import from Affiliate Marketing ReferrLy" in each app's help center. AppRanks does not track migration tooling directly — this is a category-specific capability worth verifying before commitment.
