The verdict
For a small B2B team that bills through Stripe, I'd pick Rewardful. It is the quicker route, and the vendor says set-up takes under 15 minutes.
If you want partners to recruit sub-affiliates, you run a shop or CMS rather than Stripe billing, or you plan to grow into a network, pick Post Affiliate Pro.
Use the free trials to judge both. Post Affiliate Pro offers 30 days without a card, which is enough to test tracking properly. In Post Affiliate Pro, check the tracking request limit against your traffic. In Rewardful, check the revenue caps, because a programme that works moves you up a tier.

Who each is for
Choose Post Affiliate Pro if…
Pick Post Affiliate Pro when you want control and a programme with real structure. Multi-tier commissions reward partners who recruit other partners, and higher plans add performance rewards, multiple administrators and multiple merchant accounts.
It works with shops and CMS platforms as well as SaaS, and the vendor says the API covers everything the interface does. That API is built around PHP, so custom builds need a developer. Test how the interface feels to you and your partners, since newer tools may feel lighter. It is overbuilt for a small Stripe-based SaaS that just wants affiliates tracked.
Choose Rewardful if…
Pick Rewardful when you are a SaaS founder or small team on Stripe and want an affiliate programme with little engineering. Affiliates get a branded portal, tracked links and coupon codes, and Rewardful follows each visit through to the Stripe payment.
You set percentage or fixed commissions, one-time or recurring, cookie length and attribution rules. It flags suspected self-referrals and pays in bulk through PayPal or Wise. It offers a REST API, a JavaScript API and webhooks. Skip it if you do not use Stripe or you need multi-tier commissions. It will not find affiliates for you either.
