AmbassadorFlow Referrals and Appstle℠ Subscriptions App are evenly matched on rating (5.0★ vs 5.0★) — the differentiator comes down to pricing fit, feature breadth, and which app's interaction pattern suits your team's workflow.
Pricing entry tiers: AmbassadorFlow Referrals at Free trial available, Appstle℠ Subscriptions App at Free plan available. 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.
Appstle℠ Subscriptions App has the larger user base (8,564 reviews vs 5), which usually maps to broader integration coverage, faster bug-fix cadence, and a deeper bench of community workflow patterns. AmbassadorFlow Referrals's smaller cohort can be an advantage for niche workflows where the bigger app has accumulated bloat.
Recommended evaluation path: install both apps' free tiers (where available) and run them in parallel on a small cohort for 7-14 days before committing. The data tables below show the per-feature breakdown — for most merchants the deciding factor will be a single integration or workflow detail that's hard to compare from listing pages alone.
This verdict is generated from the live marketplace data on this page — rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position all refresh from the canonical Shopify App Store listing every 24 hours. AppRanks does not accept payment to influence comparison outcomes; the methodology is documented on the About page and applies identically to every pair on the site.

Appstle℠ Subscriptions App typically suits established teams with steady usage based on its published review base (8,564 reviews).

I am setting up a new snail mail club subscription and had no idea how to run the back end of my subscription. Setting up the subscription plans was done in a timely manner with the help of the support team. I appreciated how quickly they responded to my emails, and even offered to set up a call to make sure we were on
Great app and support. Thank you!

Le support est vraiment top, très efficace, très réactif ! L'application gagnerait à être plus simple à configurer.
Migration support varies by app and category. AmbassadorFlow Referrals and Appstle℠ Subscriptions App 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 AmbassadorFlow Referrals" in each app's help center. AppRanks does not track migration tooling directly — this is a category-specific capability worth verifying before commitment.
