Description

Upfluence is a comprehensive AI-powered influencer and affiliate marketing platform designed to help brands “turn creators into revenue” through a versatile suite of tools for influencer marketing, affiliate programs, creator management, user-generated content, and brand ambassador programs. The platform positions itself as an all-in-one solution that combines advanced AI capabilities, particularly through its Jace AI assistant, with robust campaign management and performance tracking features. Trusted by over 1,600 brands including major names like Lacoste, Asics, Arizona, Marriott, and Universal, Upfluence has established itself as a powerful platform for businesses looking to build valuable partnerships with creators and drive measurable growth through influencer collaborations.

At the core of Upfluence’s offering is its AI-driven Marketplace that promises to launch campaigns in hours rather than weeks through features like one-click creator applications, real-time approvals, and rapid payments. The platform boasts access to over 12 million verified creators and leverages its Jace AI technology to interpret creator data across audience demographics, brand affinity, engagement quality, and content behavior patterns to deliver precision matches that convert into real results. Upfluence’s technology stack includes comprehensive tools for campaign management, including automated affiliate campaigns with Amazon Attribution integration, structured creator rewards systems, hassle-free influencer payments with PayPal or Stripe integration, and an all-in-one influencer gifting system that streamlines product seeding.

What sets Upfluence apart is its strong focus on performance measurement and ROI tracking, offering precise sales tracking and automatic ROI calculation for any influencer or affiliate campaign. The platform provides aggregated campaign results in customizable dashboards that display key metrics like revenue, ROI, average order value, and commissions to be paid, enabling brands to make data-driven decisions. Upfluence also offers detailed analytics on individual influencer performance, tracking metrics like clicks, views, click-through rates, engagement rates, and sales generated by each creator. This comprehensive approach to measurement has delivered impressive results for clients, with case studies reporting outcomes like 10x ROI, 20x ROI, 2x ROI, and significant improvements in efficiency, outreach capabilities, and sales performance.

Upfluence operates on a modular custom pricing model that allows clients to pay only for the specific features they need, with the ability to scale effectively as their business evolves. The platform is structured around three main modules: Search & Contact (included in all plans), Campaign Manager, and Payments.
