Accounting software converts well because the buying decision is driven by a deadline rather than curiosity, and retention is unusually strong once a business has migrated its books. The category is under-covered in this directory so far: we have verified two programs and are not publishing a category landing page until there are at least three records worth comparing.

How we selected and checked these

Accounting vendors publish less about their affiliate terms than most other categories, and several route everything through networks that do not expose terms publicly. We would rather record a null cookie duration than repeat a number we cannot source, so several fields in this category read as not publicly disclosed.

Programs are ordered by the SaaS Affiliate Score, an editorial rating built from commission, recurring potential, cookie duration, payout terms, promotional flexibility, program stability and market opportunity. Components whose underlying data a vendor does not publish are dropped from the calculation rather than guessed at, so no program is penalised for a figure it never disclosed. Sponsorship has no input into the score.
