Affiliate Marketing ReferrLy edges out Yotpo: Loyalty Rewards Program on rating (5.0★ vs 4.7★), but the gap is small enough that pricing fit and feature differentiation should drive the decision more than the headline number.
Pricing entry tiers: Affiliate Marketing ReferrLy at Free, Yotpo: Loyalty Rewards Program at Free to install. Check each app's tier structure for the capacity limits you actually need before deciding — the headline number is the same shape, but the gating shape per tier (seats, usage volume, integrations) varies.
Affiliate Marketing ReferrLy has the larger user base (1,076 reviews vs 970), which usually maps to broader integration coverage, faster bug-fix cadence, and a deeper bench of community workflow patterns. Yotpo: Loyalty Rewards Program's smaller cohort can be an advantage for niche workflows where the bigger app has accumulated bloat.
Recommended by size: small/early-stage merchants who need fast install and low risk should default to Affiliate Marketing ReferrLy; mid-market and enterprise merchants with specific feature requirements should evaluate both — Yotpo: Loyalty Rewards Program's 970-review base may include the workflow context that matches your specific use case better than Affiliate Marketing ReferrLy's broader-but-shallower coverage.
