Shopify Collabs

I had high hopes for this app, it runs smoothly and was very easy to set up BUT we have lost so much product/income to Influencers that take their gifts and never post and then don't answer messages. There doesn't appear to be any deterrents for Influencers to stop them stealing either as we cannot leave reviews or let the app know to stop this happening ( If there is a way to do this please inform me). We are now not accepting any further applications due to the amount of product we have lost this year. There are some fantastic influencers out there but sadly there are a lot of people who just want free things as well.

It looks like some fake content creator accounts can take part of your sales almost everyday. I never connected to any creators, all I did was to set up a 10% commission for affiliate links. Today I reviewed my bills and realized I have collabs comissions, when I check those creators' social media pages, none of our brand nor products were mentioned. However, they took 10% of our sales for a lot of orders. I smell scam, so I ended my affiliate link right away. Also, I see Shopify tagged the content creators as mid-fraud/high-fraud, if so, then why you still give commission to them? If you mark them as fraud, you should suspend their account! Unfortunately, Shopify told me it's too late to dispute the payment to the scammer. It should never be too late to dispute payment to scammers!!! I want my money back!!!!

TOTAL SCAM! So lucky I checked this app before more damage was done. Same as everyone else, checked the app and fake commissions and payouts pending. Loosing over $70, which is minimal compared to some of the damages others have reported, but not the point. No one should loose money for these scams. Who knows the damage that this could have caused had I not checked for some time. Also, did one real collab in here and the influencer took the product and then ghosted us. Never using again

We use and other affiliate networks like shareasale, collabs conflicts and causes double charges. A lot of the people inside are fake or using famous social accounts to approach but careful. A lot of discounts also licked all around coupon websites without our permission. At the end we decide to delete the collabs, but even after a month after the delete we got charged for an order made almost month after the delete.
We had to open case with shopify investigating the matter. Still in process for refund and permanent delete of our footprint with the collabs.
We dont recommend it yet. they need to work more with the app before it's fully trusty !
im sorry 1 star.

Do not download the new collabs app on the Apple Store if you are creator!!! It will be your biggest mistake. Use the web browser only. They send out alerts to brands and all of a sudden right after I downloaded the app, almost every brand I work with started pausing my partnerships! It was crazy! They do not protect influencers or content creators at all.

AWFUL APP, opens up the opportunity for scammers to use existing codes and basically steal from you without realizing so. We had a "creator" receive payments for multiple months, with zero notifications throughout. I only realized by luck once I looked at the Shopify bill in detail.

Shopify showed zero accountability despite many stores experiencing the same issue. Avoid at ALL COSTS, and do not count on Shopify to be able to dispute those payments.

I love it, I can add collaborators, and they can have their own affiliate link to earn commissions, the way it works is beautiful. Very well done Team

I had a shopify partner log into my store after they did some work, approve a copon harvester to take commission out of my store $352 down so far.

Complete scam, do not download this app. Waiting on shopify support now however I am not hopeful.

The Collabs interface and overall app is very helpful and easy to use - however it feels extremely limiting in terms of how brands can search for and discover creators that fit what they're looking for.

Priority suggestions/wishlist from a brand using Collabs:

-Better/more demographic search filters (Age, Interests, Local Regions)

-Would love a "Top Suggested Influencers" page or tab that offers intelligent suggestions on creators we should reach out to

-Make it easy to see when creators are ACTIVE on Shopify Collabs or add a "Badge" to creators who are more active than others (this would be HUGE for brands using Collabs)

Total SCAM!!! Please do not use!
