Direct sales · Shopify & BigCommerce
Your store runs on Shopify or BigCommerce. Now your network does too.
ScaleLine is the back office for modern direct sales brands — genealogy, commissions, ranks, and payouts, wired straight into your Shopify or BigCommerce store. Built for startups, not retrofitted from 2005.
No setup fees. Public pricing. No revenue skim. Live in a week, not a quarter.
The gap between a referral app and a $25,000 implementation
Shopify referral apps can't run a real compensation plan. Legacy platforms take months and a developer team. ScaleLine is the third option.
Connect your Shopify or BigCommerce store, pick a plan template, and invite your first reps the same day.
Flat monthly tiers. No percentage of your sales, no per-member surprise fees, cancel anytime.
Single-level, two-tier, unilevel, and stair-step breakaway templates with compression, fast start, and check match — toggles, not tickets.
Live in three steps
Your store — Shopify or BigCommerce — keeps the cart, checkout, and catalog. ScaleLine listens to your store and runs the network math.
Connect your store
Shopify or BigCommerce — paste your store credentials. ScaleLine registers webhooks, pulls your catalog, and starts attributing orders to reps in real time.
Set your plan
Start from a template and tune it: level rates, activity rules, ranks, fast start. Map CV per product, separate from retail price.
Reps share, you pay
Every rep gets a share link and code. Orders flow in, estimates update live, and month-end is a review, an approve, and a CSV for PayPal or Wise.
A commission engine you can audit
Append-only ledgers, integer math, and a receipt for every cent — because "why did I earn this?" deserves a real answer.
Bulletproof math
Integer cents and basis points, deterministic runs, immutable posted periods. Refunds mirror the exact bonuses they reverse.
Genealogy that scales
Enrollment and placement trees with instant upline and downline queries — and an audit log of every move.
Rank progress reps can feel
"$150 more PV and one more active leg to Silver." Live, gamified, honest — no spreadsheet required.
Attribution that holds up
Customer binding, per-rep discount codes, and ref links — layered, logged, and dispute-ready on every order.
One-click payouts
Holdback windows, minimum thresholds, W-9 gating, and CSV exports formatted for PayPal, Wise, and Tremendous.
Built for social selling
One-tap share links, click analytics, and AI captions that stay FTC-safe. Your reps live on their phones — so does ScaleLine.
Compliance is a feature, not a PDF
ScaleLine generates your income disclosure statement from actual payout data — zero-earners included — and tracks your retail-to-internal sales ratio continuously. When the FTC asks, you export; you don't scramble.
Pricing that's on the website
Because "book a demo to find out" is how the last generation did it.

Questions brands ask
Still deciding? Email hello@scalelinehq.com and a founder will answer.
What does direct sales software actually do?
It's the back office behind your rep network. ScaleLine tracks who enrolled whom, credits every order to the right rep, calculates commissions and ranks under your compensation plan, and prepares payouts at month-end. Your Shopify or BigCommerce store keeps the cart, checkout, and catalog.
Does ScaleLine work with both Shopify and BigCommerce?
Yes. Paste your store credentials and ScaleLine registers webhooks, pulls your catalog, and starts attributing orders in real time. Your catalog and checkout stay on your store, unchanged.
Which compensation plans can I run?
Single-level, two-tier, unilevel, and stair-step breakaway plans, with compression, fast start, check match, rank requirements, and matrix placement with a holding tank. Binary plans are in beta on the Scale tier. You build and tune the plan yourself, no code required.
How do orders get credited to the right rep?
Reps get share links and personal discount codes, and once a customer is tied to a rep their future orders stay with that rep. Every order records which signal credited it, so you can settle any "that was my customer" dispute quickly.
Do you support preferred customers and autoship?
Yes. Preferred customers enroll under a rep and get member pricing on your store. Subscription orders from Shopify subscriptions and apps like Recharge, Skio, and Ordergroove are recognized automatically and can count toward a rep's activity requirement.
How do reps get paid?
At month-end you review the period, approve it, and export a payout file formatted for PayPal, Wise, or Tremendous. Holdback windows, minimum payout thresholds, and W-9 gating are built in, and posted periods can't be changed after the fact.
Does ScaleLine help with FTC compliance?
It gives you the evidence regulators ask for. ScaleLine builds your income disclosure statement from actual payout data, including zero-earners, and tracks your retail-to-internal sales ratio continuously. It's a tool, not legal advice, so have your counsel review your plan and disclosures.
Can the rep portal use our brand and our domain?
Yes. Add your logo and colors, and serve the portal on your own domain so reps and customers only ever see your brand.
How long does setup take, and what does it cost?
There are no setup fees. You can connect your store, start from a plan template, and invite your first reps the same day. Launch is $399 a month and Grow is $999 a month, with a free sandbox while you build. Moving from another platform? Migration assistance comes with the Scale plan.
