Better publisher performance starts here.

The partnership marketing industry has lacked a unified standard for assessing which affiliate partners, content creators, and publishers deliver true incremental growth.

PartnerCentric’s FUSE Incrementality™ Index technology and the Fuse Incrementality™  Power Rankings Report establish a definitive source of truth in performance marketing. As the industry’s first data-driven, partner-agnostic incrementality measurement and optimization solution, it delivers irrefutable credibility to the partnership marketing industry, while driving actionable insights for brands.
