What changed

Seven blog posts still said Affitor does not collect tax forms. This PR fixes only the Affitor facts; competitor rows and text are unchanged.

  • dub-vs-partnerstack, dub-vs-tolt, firstpromoter-vs-dub, rewardful-vs-dub: trade-offs paragraph ("does not track coupon codes or collect tax forms" becomes coupon codes only, plus "Each partner signs a tax form (W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E or W-9) in their account before the first payout."); Affitor row, Tax forms column No / not stated publicly becomes Yes / W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E or W-9.
  • best-affiliate-software-saas: same table cell.
  • firstpromoter-alternatives: Cons line.
  • rewardful-vs-firstpromoter: bullet and table cell.
  • updated: frontmatter is 2026-10-17 on each.

Not claimed: 1099 filing (the column header says "Collects W-9/W-8 forms or files 1099s"; Affitor collects forms, filing is not documented in code). No change to PayPal cells (Affitor: No; bank or Wise is still true).

Why

Since Wise payouts (cms#506, live in v3.16.116+), every partner signs a tax form before a withdrawal: W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, or a W-9 that Affitor's accountant emails. Merge note: this is comparison-post copy; the author asked whether it waits for a positioning decision or merges as a fact fix.

How verified

  • affiliate-dashboard origin/main src/components/Account/PayoutSetup.tsx (tax form sheet: W-8BEN / W-8BEN-E / Declare W-9, "Our accountant will email you a W-9"); affiliate-cms v3.16.118 services/payout-readiness.ts (valid tax form required before a withdrawal); docs#153 (partners/payouts) reviewed against the same code.
  • Build, check-agent-surface, check-docs-host and check-docs-host-http pass locally.
