Choosing an affiliate and creator platform shapes how you’ll manage partnerships for years, not just months, so it’s worth understanding where two platforms actually diverge before committing to either one. Levanta and PartnerBoost both support Amazon and Walmart, but that’s largely where the similarities end.
Neither platform is better or worse, and really the right one depends on how many channels your brand sells through today (or plans to), and how many types of partner programs you actually need to run.
Let’s first look at how the two compare side-by-side and where they might fit your brand best.
Levanta vs PartnerBoost (At a Glance)
Levanta | PartnerBoost | |
Best for | Growing DTC/multichannel brands; strong for Shopify-first brands; Amazon brands ~$5M+ | Established, Amazon-centric brands wanting several program types in one place |
Channels | Amazon, Shopify, Walmart | Amazon-centric (9 Amazon marketplaces); publisher-side Walmart, TikTok Shop, DTC |
Program types | Affiliate + creator/influencer, with a built-in Creator Marketplace | Affiliate, influencer, referral, and ambassador in one dashboard |
Attribution | Amazon API, product/creator/brand-level tracking; 14-day tracking window | Amazon Seller API; 14-day tracking window |
Commissions | CPA + CPC; flexible rates | Custom commissions by product, category, campaign, or partner |
Creator network | 80,000+ vetted creators | 50,000+ publishers/creators |
Support | Plug-and-play, self-serve onboarding and open Slack seller’s community | High-touch: publisher/influencer specialists and success managers |
Levanta is an affiliate creator platform built for e-commerce brands selling across Amazon, Shopify, and Walmart, whether that’s one of those channels, two, or all three.
It connects brands with a network of 80,000+ vetted creators who drive traffic across all three channels, backed by modern affiliate and creator tools and a steady stream of new capabilities (Social Suite, a new iOS app, and more already in the pipeline).
Basically, Levanta works just as well for a Shopify-only DTC brand as it does for one selling across all three channels, and its modern tooling and pace of new feature releases give it an edge even against platforms built specifically for Shopify-only brands.
PartnerBoost, by contrast, is built for established, Amazon-centric brands running multiple program types (affiliate, influencer, referral, ambassador) out of one dashboard, often across nine international Amazon marketplaces.
PartnerBoost also leans toward Amazon-native brands that have already outgrown a single program type, backed by high-touch account management and specialists.
Now, let’s talk about how these two platforms compare, category by category:
Channel coverage
Amazon, Shopify, and Walmart all run through Levanta’s platform, with one-click or direct API integrations providing real-time tracking of clicks, conversions, and payouts across all three.
For example, if you owned an established $8M/year skincare brand selling across both Shopify and Amazon, you might benefit more from Levanta, since one dashboard could give you a unified view of creator performance across both channels as you keep scaling, depending on how much that cross-channel visibility actually matters to your team.
PartnerBoost centers on Amazon, extended across nine global marketplaces for brands expanding into Europe or APAC, with publisher-side support for Walmart, DTC, and TikTok Shop layered on top. So, if you owned a supplements brand doing the bulk of your sales on Amazon.com but were planning a launch in Germany and Japan next year, PartnerBoost’s marketplace footprint might serve you better.
Program types
On the other hand, if your program covers a lot of different program types, PartnerBoost is likely the better choice, as it allows brands to manage affiliate, influencer, referral, and ambassador programs in one place.
Levanta focuses on affiliate and creator partnerships with a built-in Creator Marketplace and deeper features rather than a wide menu of program types. Levanta offers co-branded landing pages for a seamless experience. Levanta also enables performance-based influencer campaigns for small brands who don’t have a huge marketing budget to pay influencers upfront, where the influencers only get paid when they actually make sales.
If you’re an established brand that’s already running multiple program types, PartnerBoost will help you keep it all in one dashboard. If you’re growing your affiliate and influencer partnerships, Levanta keeps things more streamlined.
Network
Both platforms boast large networks of verified creators. Levanta has more than 80,000 creators in-network (as of this publishing) including large publishers, bloggers, news outlets, and Amazon-focused deal sites.
PartnerBoost says they have a community of more than 50,000 publishers and creators including bloggers, affiliates, and influencers. They also offer integrations with affiliate SaaS providers CJ, Partnerize, Rakuten, Tradedoubler.
Both programs are growing their creator networks all the time, so this is pretty close to a tie; again, the biggest difference shows up in how you work with the creators, not in how many creators they can help you reach.
Support
PartnerBoost offers high-touch support and onboarding with specialists and success managers who can help you build, launch, and grow your program.
Levanta leans more toward plug-and-play due to their fast, DIY onboarding and an opt-in Creator Marketplace, but their customer support is some of the best in the business.. But they do have an open Seller Community on Slack to get peer support any time.
One reason they might have different levels and types of support is the level of complexity of the product. Levanta is easier to set up and run because it stays focused on what it does best. PartnerBoost may require more human support because it has more complex tools and setup.
This one just depends on how you like to work. If you’re the type of person who likes the human touch, PartnerBoost may be the better choice. But if you like to get up and running quickly and are excited to manage your program yourself, Levanta is the better fit.
Pricing
- Levanta’s Gold plan starts at $750/month billed annually, plus 3.5% of affiliate sales.
- PartnerBoost’s Standard plan runs $3,999/year.
For most brands, the price matters most on whether that investment buys you multichannel reach or Amazon-specific depth, since that’s the variable that actually determines return.
Choosing the Right Affiliate Platform for Your Brand
If you’re an established e-commerce brand selling across Amazon, Shopify, and Walmart (or planning to), Levanta gives you one dashboard, one creator network, and one attribution system across all three, without paying for program types you don’t need.
If your business is Amazon-centric with ambitions to expand internationally, or you’re already running affiliate, influencer, referral, and ambassador programs that need to live under one roof, PartnerBoost’s global marketplace reach and multi-program dashboard are built for exactly that complexity.
Before committing to either platform, it’s worth doing your own homework rather than taking any vendor’s numbers at face value. I recommend that you request a demo from both, ask specifically how each handles your current channel mix (not just the one you’re on today, but the one you’re planning to expand into next), and get a clear answer on how pricing scales as your affiliate-driven revenue grows.
The right platform is the one that fits the business you’re building toward, not just the one you’re running right now.
