Companies Using ShareASale

ShareASale shouldn't need a technology page in October 2026. Awin closed it a year ago. Yet our October 2026 crawl finds its tracking script on 6,646 live domains, 3,359 matched to a company, 12th of 96 in Affiliate & Referral. A domain counts when its pages load a script from static.shareasale.com, and every path we see there belongs to ShareASale's Shopify app, so every domain is a Shopify store. ShareASale merchants on other platforms don't show up here: in our data, only the Shopify app's scripts load from that address. This page is about the stores still carrying the Shopify tag: who they are, what else they run and what the tag still does.

The platform closed; the tag didn't

Awin, which bought ShareASale in 2017, said on 14 August 2025 that it had completed the ShareASale upgrade, bringing more than 9,500 advertisers and 250,000 active publishers onto one platform. Its help centre says the ShareASale platform closed on 6 October 2025 and that ShareASale plugins are now in maintenance-only mode, and shareasale.com redirects to an Awin sign-up page. In March 2025 Awin told merchants they wouldn't need to install new tracking because it would switch it over. The Shopify script we fetched in October 2026 still runs. It reads Awin's click ID as well as ShareASale's, sets an Awin cookie and reports orders to shareasale.com, which still responds.

Sales signal: a store with ShareASale's tag is an Awin advertiser tracked through the old script, a lapsed merchant, or a store that never cleaned up its apps. All three are worth a call from an affiliate agency, and the first group is Awin's own account list.

One merchant per store

The script address carries a ShareASale merchant ID. In the 2,112 domains where we could read it we found 1,562 IDs, about 1.35 domains each. The largest ID covers ten country domains of a single brand, and no agency or platform sits behind a big block. 33 domains load the script without a merchant ID, so the app is installed with no merchant account attached.

Sales signal: unlike enterprise tags, there's little to dedupe here. Most rows are one merchant with one store.

Rising on the chart, falling in practice

Our chart goes 5,099 in August, 6,243 in September, 6,646 in October. Nobody can sign up to ShareASale any more, so none of that is new merchants. Two things on our side move the line: the domains we crawl turn over every month as dead stores drop out and newly found ones come in, and our detection widens over time. Tracking only began on 4 August 2026. The trend that matters is the other one. 1,214 domains have dropped the script since then, and about one in five still loads it on another hostname.

"ShareASale is a tag that outlived its company. A year after the platform closed, more than 6,600 Shopify stores still load its script, and most of them don't load AWIN's own tag." - Emma Davies, Data Analyst at TechnologyChecker.io

Sales signal: this is a shrinking list. Use it while the tag still marks stores that once ran an affiliate programme.

Who the stores are

66.02% of matched companies with a known size have 1 to 10 employees and 24.98% have 11 to 50. AWIN's profile shows 50.05% at 1 to 10, and Impact's 40.82%. They're young too: 30.46% were founded in the 2020s and 51.75% in the 2010s, against 17.5% in the 2020s on AWIN's profile. The bigger names are consumer brands with a Shopify storefront, among them Zulily, Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams, Salt & Straw, Levain Bakery, Everlast, Petmate and Faber-Castell's US store.

Sales signal: these are small consumer brands. Pitch in revenue terms and keep onboarding light, since two in three have ten or fewer staff.

Apparel, beauty and food, mostly American

Retail Apparel and Fashion (14.75%) and Apparel & Fashion (3.46%) make clothing 17.92% of matched companies, and Retail adds 14.06%. Personal care manufacturers (7.33%) and retailers (3.97%) put beauty and grooming at 11.3%, and Food and Beverage Services is 5.74%. The United States has 2,780 of the 3,359 matched companies; Canada has 146, China 93, the United Kingdom 70 and Australia 50.

Sales signal: creator and influencer platforms should start with the fashion and beauty brands, 29.22% of matched companies between them, and with US stores, which are most of the list.

AWIN and the other affiliate apps

If stores had added Awin's own tag beside the old one, the two would overlap heavily. They mostly don't. 858 domains run ShareASale's script and AWIN's together, out of 1,066 we've seen with both since August. GoAffPro runs beside it on 758, RevenueHunt on 150 and Impact on 86. Most of these pairs are still in place, so we don't call any of it switching. PartyLite shows what a move can look like from outside: its store keeps a Shopify pixel named "ShareASale Tracking" that now loads Awin's tag.

"Only 858 of the stores still carrying ShareASale's tag load AWIN's tag as well. For the rest, the old ShareASale script is the only Awin-owned tracking we can see." - Emma Davies, Data Analyst at TechnologyChecker.io

Sales signal: stores with ShareASale's tag and no AWIN tag are the open question. Some are Awin advertisers tracked through the old script and some have let their programme lapse, and an affiliate agency can find out which by asking.

The stack around it

Shopify runs on 100% of the 6,571 domains in our stack sample. Apple Pay (86.3%), Shop Pay (84.74%) and PayPal (78.45%) handle checkout. Klaviyo is on 67.77% and Klaviyo Reviews on 57.4%, with Judge.me (27.86%), Yotpo Reviews (13.94%) and Loox (8.2%) behind. Instafeed reaches 26.13%. Mailchimp, at 14.02%, trails Klaviyo by a wide margin.

Sales signal: Klaviyo partners and Shopify app developers can treat this list as warm, since two in three of these stores already run Klaviyo.

What it costs now

ShareASale sells nothing now, and new merchants go to Awin. Awin's US advertiser pricing page lists Access at $49 a month plus a 3.5% tracking fee on each transaction, with the first month free and a three-month minimum term, Accelerate from $99 a month plus 2.5%, and Advanced priced on request (checked 13 October 2026). Partner commission comes on top of the tracking fee.

Sales signal: a small store on Awin's Access plan pays a monthly fee and a per-sale cut. Rival networks and in-house affiliate apps can compete on that.
