3 simple steps to migrate

1

Review your program

Write down your Cello commission rules, billing provider, payout method and how many affiliates are active, and check that Refgrow's plan for your affiliate revenue covers them.

2

Configure Refgrow

Create your project, connect your billing provider, and add your affiliates through the dashboard or the API with their existing referral codes. Verify tracking before you switch traffic.

3

Validate the migration

Test links and attribution, and reconcile outstanding Cello commissions before you invite partners and disconnect the old tool.

Review your migration in writing

Email support@refgrow.com with your current provider, affiliate count, commission rules, and the data you need to move. We can review the export format and outline the setup and validation steps. Importing referral codes alone does not guarantee that existing links, coupons, or historical commissions will work unchanged.

Is there a free trial?

Cello: Not stated; Partner Free plan available. Refgrow: 7 days, card required, or 30 days if you are switching from Cello.

Can I move my affiliates from Cello to Refgrow?

Yes. Add your affiliates in the dashboard or through Refgrow's API with their existing referral codes. Refgrow's tracking script reads your own link parameter plus via, fpr and aff, so links in those formats keep crediting the partner once their code exists in Refgrow. Check coupons and pending commissions separately. Written migration help is available at support@refgrow.com.

Can I run both platforms during migration?

Yes. Plan a transition and verify attribution and commission handling before disconnecting Cello. Avoid duplicate tracking or payouts while both systems are running.
