For micro-SaaS founders

A micro-SaaS affiliate program
sized for a team of one.

A micro-SaaS runs on a handful of paying customers, a Stripe or Lemon Squeezy account, and a founder doing support, marketing, and product all at once. Most affiliate platforms are priced and staffed for a program with a growth team behind it — a percentage of revenue, a dashboard someone has to babysit, a minimum seat count.

Qanary runs unattended. Fraud checks and rewards fire on their own, the Free plan covers a program before it's proven itself, and there's no per-seat cost forcing you to justify the tool to a team that doesn't exist.

Why it fits

Built for a founder wearing every hat.

Automatic, not manual, rewards

Automatic rewards fire off Stripe events on their own — no monthly commission run to do by hand between everything else on your plate.

Fraud checks with nobody watching

Bot filtering and a review queue catch abuse before a payout is owed, so a program you're not staring at all day doesn't quietly leak money.

A handful of affiliates, weighted right

Micro-SaaS programs are usually concentrated — a few people drive most of it. Tags and VIP rates let your best one earn more without a separate tier to build.

A portal you didn't have to build

The branded affiliate portal is hosted by Qanary — one less surface for a solo founder to design, ship, and maintain.

Payouts without a finance person

Export a batch and pay through Wise or PayPal — the account you probably already use to pay yourself.

A real free plan, not a 14-day clock

5,000 events a month and full tracking, no card required — validate the channel before committing budget a micro-SaaS margin can't always spare.

Setup

Ten minutes, then it runs itself.

Connect Stripe in one click, set a commission rate, and invite the customers who already recommend you by word of mouth. If you shipped the product by prompting an AI agent in the first place, the same agent can install Qanary too — see the AI-built apps use case for that path. Billing on Lemon Squeezy, Paddle, or Polar today still works through the REST API while native connections roll out.

FAQ

Fair questions.

Is this worth setting up if I only have a handful of affiliates?

Yes — Qanary isn't priced or staffed for a large program. The Free plan covers a small one completely, and Core stays $49/mo whether five affiliates or five hundred are enrolled.

Do I need to check a dashboard regularly to keep this running?

No — fraud checks and rewards run against your Stripe events automatically. Check in when you want to, not because something breaks if you don't.

What if my program never grows past a side project?

Then Free stays free, indefinitely — 1 campaign, 5,000 events a month, no obligation to upgrade and no trial clock forcing the decision.

Can I run this without hiring anyone?

Yes — payouts export to Wise or PayPal, the portal is hosted, and fraud review only needs your attention on flagged edge cases. Team seats exist for when you do hire, not before.

I bill through Lemon Squeezy, Paddle, or Polar — does this still work?

Yes, through the REST API and webhooks while native connections for those three roll out — Stripe is native today. See the integrations page for current status.
