Pricing entry tiers: UpPromote Affiliate Marketing at Free plan available, SC Loyalty Rewards at Free to install.

UpPromote Affiliate Marketing has the larger user base (3,818 reviews vs 69), which usually maps to broader integration coverage, faster bug-fix cadence, and a deeper bench of community workflow patterns. SC Loyalty Rewards'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 UpPromote Affiliate Marketing; mid-market and enterprise merchants with specific feature requirements should evaluate both — SC Loyalty Rewards's 69-review base may include the workflow context that matches your specific use case better than UpPromote Affiliate Marketing's broader-but-shallower coverage.
