Frequently asked questions

What is the best European alternative to PartnerStack?
Cello ranks first of the 3 European alternatives to PartnerStack in our directory, followed by Tapfiliate and Referral Factory.
Is PartnerStack GDPR-compliant?
Built in Toronto, it passed into US ownership when AppDirect of San Francisco bought it in April 2026. For a US company, the EU-US Data Privacy Framework covers transfers only if AppDirect is certified under it; otherwise they need standard contractual clauses and a transfer impact assessment, and US laws such as the CLOUD Act can reach the data either way.
